Our research notes

What to know before you choose this energy drinks

The maker’s published label lists 18 ingredients, led by citric acid, taurine and sodium citrate. Worth noting: it lists added sweeteners (maltodextrin), natural flavors and artificial sweeteners. For energy drink, the comparison that matters most is caffeine per can: compare milligrams per can against the roughly 400 mg a day the FDA cites for healthy adults, including your coffee and tea.
