sweetener is in 5-Hour Energy?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sucralose is a sweetener in 5-Hour Energy. 5-hour ENERGY shots contain sucralose instead of sugar or HFCS, which is a safe artificial sweetener that adds zero calories and sugar to a product. Sucralose is a yellow artificial sweetener that some add to coffee.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The use of artificial sweeteners is often a contentious issue, but the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has given its approval for their consumption, which indicates that they are safe, especially when used in moderation and consumed in small amounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_5-Hour_Energy_unhealthy\"><\/span>Is 5-Hour Energy unhealthy?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5-Hour Energy is not unhealthy. However, though 5-Hour Energy is usually safe, overconsumption may lead to adverse effects. If taking more than two energy shots would put you over the daily maximum of 400 milligrams of caffeine, stick to just one.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, an excess of vitamins may have adverse effects. These energy shots have an exceptionally high vitamin content relative to their peers. An eventual vitamin overdose may occur if an excessive amount of vitamins are consumed, which can lead to a vitamin overdose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-Hour_Energy_Nutrition_Facts\"><\/span>5-Hour Energy Nutrition Facts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a look at the nutrition facts of 5-Hour Energy below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#e7f5fe\"><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Standard Value<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>5-Hour Shots<\/strong><br><strong>(1.93 fl.oz)<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Caffeine<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">200mg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Protein<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0g<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Fat<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0g<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Carbohydrate<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">0g<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Sodium<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">15mg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Potassium<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">15mg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Choline<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">2mg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Vitamin B3 (Niacin)<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">30mg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Vitamin B6<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">50mg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Vitamin B12<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">500mcg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Calories<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">4 calories<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nutrition Facts of 5-Hour Energy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/energydrinkhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/WhatsApp_Image_2020-11-11_at_11.01.52_2_1250x-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Nutrition facts of 5 Hour Energy\" class=\"wp-image-8074\" srcset=\"https:\/\/energydrinkhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/WhatsApp_Image_2020-11-11_at_11.01.52_2_1250x-1.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/energydrinkhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/WhatsApp_Image_2020-11-11_at_11.01.52_2_1250x-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/energydrinkhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/WhatsApp_Image_2020-11-11_at_11.01.52_2_1250x-1-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw -

Meanwhile, 5-Hour Energy has 200mg of caffeine in a 1.93fl. oz. shot &mdash; just a little shy of 2fl. oz. &mdash; which is pretty intense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I prefer to keep my daily caffeine intake at around 200mg. This gives me the boost I need without experiencing a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/caffeine-crash\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/caffeine-crash\" target=\"_blank\">caffeine crash<\/a> afterward. A shot containing 200mg of caffeine is perfect for me. So, it works pretty well when I need an energy boost around mid-day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you should bear in mind that 200mg of caffeine in a shot is a lot. Your body needs to absorb it in a shorter period compared to regular-sized energy drinks. This may be something your body isn&rsquo;t used to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For reference, 400mg is the daily limit of caffeine intake by the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/consumers\/consumer-updates\/spilling-beans-how-much-caffeine-too-much#:~:text=For%20healthy%20adults%2C%20the%20FDA,it%20(break%20it%20down).\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/consumers\/consumer-updates\/spilling-beans-how-much-caffeine-too-much#:~:text=For%20healthy%20adults%2C%20the%20FDA,it%20(break%20it%20down).\" target=\"_blank\">FDA<\/a>.
