Pre-packed coffee in the UK (instant, ground, filter) does not have to show caffeine content, unlike energy drinks or medicines with over 150mg of caffeine per litre. We feel consumers like pregnant women and heart patients therefore can't track intake safely.

Make Carbohydrate Labelling Mandatory in all Restaurants and food establishments
Please consider advocating for legislation that makes the display of carbohydrate content compulsory for restaurant meals, in the same way that calorie labelling is currently mandated. This practical change would make eating out safer and more inclusive for thousands of people across the country.
Improve food labelling laws to clearly list all ingredients
Update food labelling laws so all ingredients, including starches and flavourings, must be clearly listed on packaging and menus. This should apply to pre-packed food, restaurants, takeaways and online food ordering to ensure safety for people with allergies and dietary needs.
Require period product packaging to include information about health
Make it a legal requirement for all period product packaging to include information to show that period patterns are an indicator of physical health. Clear information on warning signs of periods indicating potential underlying gynaecological diseases and cancer. Early recognition saves lives.
Ban sale of high-caffeine products like gum and supplements to under 16s
Introduce a law banning children under 16 from buying high-caffeine products like gum, supplements, excluding drinks, with strict age checks and safe placement in stores
Require Disclosure of All Pesticide Residues and Processing Aids on Food Labels
All residues and processing aids used at any stage of the food production and supply chain must be clearly and fully disclosed to consumers on product labelling, including the amount of agents used during farming, processing, preservation, or packaging that remain in or on the final food product.
