A
group of teachers were shocked when some of their students ended up
running to the nurse’s office after sampling a drink dubbed as Bob
Marley’s ‘anti-energy drink.’
Reports say students at a New Jersey middle school became ill after
drinking a beverage called Marley’s Mellow Mood, named after the
deceased reggae star, which they purchased in the school cafeteria. The
drink is described as the ‘anti-energy drink’ because 100% natural,
calming botanicals.
Fox 5 News reports some students spit up and threw up while others said they were drowsy and lethargic after consuming it.
The label of the drink reads: “The all natural botanical ingredients
in this product have been specially blended to mellow your mood, and may
cause drowsiness. Best enjoyed when you are ready to relax. Do not mix
with alcohol. Not intended for children…”
A letter was sent home to parents from The William R. Satz School in
Holmdel saying, “Several students went to our nurse’s office to report
symptoms of nausea, headaches, light-headiness, and a feeling of
lethargy.”
The drinks have since been removed from the schools. [Vibe]
