Caffeine Pouches are the new Buzz?

Why Energy Drinks Are a Bigger Problem Than You Think — And How Berserker Caffeine Pouches Are Changing the Game

At Berserker Caffeine Pouches, we’ve been saying it for years: energy drinks are not the answer — especially for teens and young adults.

NBC News recently released a video highlighting a rising concern: the exploding popularity of energy drinks among kids and the potentially dangerous effects of high caffeine consumption, paired with chemical sweeteners, artificial flavors, and addictive stimulants. Watch the video here.

We’re not surprised they missed the mark with this one...

Why focus on caffeine pouches that literally just have caffeine in them rather than these energy drink companies that DIRECTLY market to kids and teens, and are FILLED with nasty chemicals and ingredients to make them more addicting. 

What Energy Drink Companies Aren’t Telling You

These flashy cans aren't just filled with caffeine. They’re loaded with:

• Artificial colors and sweeteners

• Hidden sugars or sugar alcohols

• Preservatives

• Stimulants like guarana and ginseng

• Acidic ingredients that erode enamel and damage digestion

And here’s the kicker: many of these ingredients amplify the effects of caffeine, leading to anxiety, heart palpitations, mood swings, and yes — even addiction-like dependency. That’s not something any teen should be ingesting daily.

Berserker Caffeine Pouches: Clean Energy. No Bull.

We created Berserker Caffeine Pouches with a different philosophy. No mystery formulas. No hidden stimulants. Just clean, plant-based caffeine, zero tobacco, and no nicotine.

Each pouch is designed to deliver a steady, controlled dose of caffeine — without the crash, without the sugar, and without the chemical circus. We’re here for focus, endurance, and drive — not jitters and heartburn.

Also... Berserker is a pouch that you place between your lip and gum. Which means it doesn't pass through your liver or gut but instead by the salivary glands in your mouth for cleaner and faster absorption.

Helping Young People Kick the Nicotine Habit

There’s another epidemic quietly growing: nicotine pouches. Many young people looking for a buzz are falling into the trap of tobacco-free nicotine products that are still highly addictive and tough to quit.

Berserker is proud to be part of the solution. Our pouches have helped countless users transition away from harmful nicotine pouches by offering a satisfying, oral fixation alternative with zero addictive substances.

We’re not about replacing one addiction with another. We’re about empowering people with better choices — whether it’s students needing to stay sharp, athletes looking to boost stamina, or ex-nicotine users ready to take back control.

The Bottom Line

If you’re a parent, coach, teacher, or young adult yourself, it’s time to rethink what’s fueling your energy. Energy drinks are marketed like candy — but they’re chemical cocktails with real risks.

At Berserker, we’re offering a smarter, cleaner, and more responsible way to stay energized.

No tobacco. No nicotine. No BS. Just pure, warrior-grade caffeine.
