BACKGROUND
Despite concern regarding harms of energy drink (ED) consumption, no research has been conducted to determine awareness and compliance with ED intake guidelines displayed on product packaging in Australia (a novel approach internationally).
METHODS
A convenience sample of 1922 people completed an online survey. Participants reported their knowledge of maximum recommended daily ED intake according to Australian guidelines.
RESULTS
Guideline awareness was reported by 38, 23 and 19% of past year consumers, lifetime, and non-consumers, respectively. Amongst past year consumers, 'accurate estimators' reported greater ED intake and were more likely to exceed intake guidelines and consume alcohol mixed with ED (AmED). After controlling for demographics and frequency of use, guideline awareness predicted increased likelihood of exceeding guidelines in ED sessions, but was not associated with exceeding ED guidelines in AmED sessions.
CONCLUSIONS
Australia is considered to have the most stringent regulatory approach to EDs internationally. However, advisory statements are not associated with greater awareness and compliance with intake guidelines. Failure to comply with standards for efficacious product labelling, and absence of broader education regarding guidelines, needs to be addressed.
背景
尽管人们对饮用能量饮料（ED）的危害有所担忧，但尚未开展研究以确定澳大利亚人对产品包装上显示的能量饮料摄入指南的知晓情况及遵循程度（这在国际上是一种新颖的方法）。
方法
对1922人进行便利抽样，让他们完成一项在线调查。参与者报告了他们根据澳大利亚指南对每日能量饮料最大推荐摄入量的了解情况。
结果
在过去一年的消费者、终生消费者和非消费者中，分别有38%、23%和19%的人知晓指南。在过去一年的消费者中，“准确估算者”报告的能量饮料摄入量更高，更有可能超过摄入指南并饮用与能量饮料混合的酒精饮料（AmED）。在控制了人口统计学特征和使用频率后，指南知晓情况预测在饮用能量饮料时超过指南的可能性增加，但与在饮用含能量饮料的酒精饮料时超过能量饮料指南无关。
结论
澳大利亚在国际上被认为对能量饮料有最严格的监管方法。然而，咨询声明与更高的知晓度和对摄入指南的遵循情况无关。需要解决未能遵守有效产品标签标准以及缺乏关于指南的更广泛教育的问题。
