Here's what parents need to know about Prime drinks in Metro Detroit

It's the hottest hydration drink of the summer, but some think it looks too similar to the brand's caffeine-packed energy drink. If you haven't heard of Prime Drinks, then you probably don't have a child between the ages of 10 and 13. But many parents are unaware that the beverage comes in two very different versions.

Don't drink that stuff, drink water.

And apple juice

[@FlatlanderJoe]

Maybe be a parent and actually pay attention to what your child consumes?

[@goldlion200]

Better yet read the label

[@brendaniebel1355]

Amen.

[@Zak_Nike]

Drink water please your cells are crying out for WATER, also 10% ? Dump prime and drink 100% coconut water coz thats zo much better for you. Stay healthy😊

[@TakeRisksUntilYouMakeIt]

prime is just a trend, if you aren’t playing a sport or getting active outside ect, prime isn’t for you.

[@hinstoncarachi1373]

Prime isn’t good for sports. You lose sodium when you sweat. Prime main electrolyte isn’t sodium, it’s potassium; drink water and eat a banana, you get prime.

[@TopGrex]

It may be a trend but Gatorade def is not and desperately needs a replacement, high in sodium, doesn't taste good, and overpriced. Prime is here to stay imo

[@Intheshadowswewatch]

@@TopGrexshut up sodium is helpful prime has least while it does boost primes flavor when having tiny amounts it’s more important than any nutrient in a sports drink

Thanks for this information. I first heard about this when my “6 year old” son asked for it the grocery store. Good thing I told him no because it definitely didn’t look like anything for kids. I asked him where did he even see that, he said on UA-cam. I don’t give me kids energy drinks, so when I saw that next to them, I just automatically said no.

You should stop him from watching content on youtube, many that advertise prime are brainrot videos (Source: what I see my cousins watch)

[@TarotMuriel]

Misleading. THIS VIDEO IS AN ADVERTISEMENT.
It contains branch chain amino acids (BCAAs) and vitamins. The company itself says that this drink should not be used in children under 15.
Prime Hydration Drink includes additives like acesulfame potassium, which is an artificial sweetener, and dipotassium phosphate, a food additive used as a stabilizer. These additives have been associated with potential health risks, including allergic reactions and disturbances in kidney function.

It doesn't take a genius to read which one has caffeine in it or to know energy drinks are not meant for kids. Do parents really not read the labels on stuff we do with our son if he asks for something and we don't know what it is

[@Nicks.2259]

How can the mom not know what prime is, is the kid buying these things or are the parents not reading the cans

[@brainiacpoststudios5479]

South Park brought me here…

[@STARIZZY458]

Why would they name it cred 💀

[@FuegoDeDios71]

why you have to do that so me i love prime

[@brendaniebel1355]

[@userAkilonna]

[@Lobster01204]

[@davidws9]

[@theathomas2465]

[@AnbuRenzo.]

Prime energy is not good for us kids, prime hydration is good

[@well...456]

[@HamzaAhmed54321]

🎉🎉 🥹🥹🥹🥹😊

[@MarciaCTaylor]

Reading is fundamental! The bottles and cans are clearly labeled… READ! It’s not tiny… it’s pretty obvious.

[@Michael97Moore]

Gatorade is better

[@brendaniebel1355]

No it isn't! Propel water is.

[@Bananas847]

Noo but I love prime :(

[@Goofyahhright]
