I'm sure someone does, but the warnings are ridiculous. The State of California uses unrealistic standards and ignores the simple fact that dosage makes the poison. Caffeine and alcohol may cause cancer. Everything MAY cause cancer.

Buy the gear you need. If you're buying from a reputable store and a reputable brand, it's safe.
