The Food and Drug Administration <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thaiscience.info\/journals\/Article\/JMAT\/10982990.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(FDA)<\/a> in Thailand, based on the 1979 Food Act, requires caffeinated items, particularly beverages, to adhere to the general food code. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exceeding the suggested limit  of the FDA may result in notable side <a href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/caffeine.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">effects<\/a> such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul type=\"video\"><li>Heart Palpitations<\/li><li>Insomnia<\/li><li>Restlessness<\/li><li>Headaches<\/li><li>Stomachaches<\/li><li>Dizziness<\/li><li>Dehydration<\/li><li>Anxiety<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Given that a bottle of Krating Daeng only contains 32mg of caffeine, you&rsquo;d be hard-pressed to exceed the caffeine limit even if you tried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, you should only be concerned with your overall caffeine intake for the day, which means keeping caffeinated beverages to a bare minimum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-much-sugar-does-krating-daeng-energy-drink-have\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Much_Sugar_Does_Krating_Daeng_Energy_Drink_Have\"><\/span>How Much Sugar Does Krating Daeng Energy Drink Have?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Krating Daeng has a relatively reasonable amount of sugar (for a sugary energy drink) at 28g, which is still high but not excessive.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the American Heart Association or <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.heart.org\/en\/healthy-living\/healthy-eating\/eat-smart\/sugar\/how-much-sugar-is-too-much#:~:text=AHA%20Sugar%20Recommendation&amp;text=Men%20should%20consume%20no%20more,or%20100%20calories)%20per%20day.\" target=\"_blank\">AHA<\/a>, your daily sugar intake should be no more than 25g for women and 36g for men. In comparison, the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/live-well\/eat-well\/how-does-sugar-in-our-diet-affect-our-health\/\" target=\"_blank\">NHS<\/a> in the United Kingdom recommends a daily added sugar limit of 30g for adults in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>As a result, a 5 fl. oz bottle of Krating Daeng with 28g of sugar is relatively high to consume regularly. However, it is still within a reasonable amount.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&rsquo;s not to say you can&rsquo;t indulge in a small sugar binge every now and then; sugar is delicious, and it also provides a minor mood boost due to the increase in <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/15987666\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dopamine<\/a> levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, when you consume a diet that is consistently high in sugar, you risk developing health problems, with notable examples including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul type=\"video\"><li>Gaining <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/23966427\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Weight<\/a><\/li><li>Diabetes Type II<\/li><li>Heart disease<\/li><li>Acne<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5532289\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Depression<\/a> risk<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Consuming an excessive amount of sugar in a short time may result in a sugar crash.
