Caffeine content not stated

* The caffeine content of tea and coffee varies widely, depending on the brand, the way that the individual makes their beverage, and the size of the mug or cup. These values are for a range of beverages as prepared by subjects in a study. It should be noted that some coffee houses (e.g. Starbucks) sell special brews that come in extra large containers with extra strong varieties of coffee. It is possible for such a brew to provide 500-1000 mg of caffeine per serve!

## Caffeinated PowerBar Power Gels are not available in Australia and New Zealand.
