Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This energy drink contains artificial sweeteners, Acesulfame Potassium and Sucralose, which are a primary concern for those monitoring their intake of such additives. Additionally, has the potential to form benzene, a known carcinogen, although the actual formation and levels in beverages are complex and depend on various factors. While the product provides some B vitamins and L-Carnitine, its overall profile is that of an ultra-processed beverage with no significant nutritional benefits beyond the added vitamins. It is generally suitable for healthy adults in moderation, but individuals sensitive to artificial sweeteners or those with specific health conditions should exercise caution.

Sodium Benzoate (E211)
Benzoates are permitted preservatives with an established acceptable daily intake. Two documented concerns: in acidic drinks that also contain ascorbic acid (vitamin C) they can slowly form small amounts of benzene, especially with heat and light (US FDA beverage survey, 2006); and sodium benzoate was one of the additives in the Southampton study mixtures associated with hyperactivity in children. It can also trigger reactions in some people with asthma or urticaria.

Sodium Benzoate: regulation, sources and other products →Sucralose (E955)
Sucralose is an approved intense sweetener with an established acceptable daily intake. The WHO (2023) advises against relying on non-sugar sweeteners for weight control, and research into long-term gut and metabolic effects is ongoing. Heating it at very high temperatures is not recommended.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: WHO guideline on non-sugar sweeteners (2023); EFSA/JECFA acceptable daily intake
Sucralose: regulation, sources and other products →Acesulfame Potassium (E950)
Acesulfame K is an approved intense sweetener. Regulators set an acceptable daily intake and consider it safe within it, but the WHO (2023) advises against using non-sugar sweeteners to control body weight because there is no long-term benefit and possible long-term harms, and long-term research on gut and metabolic effects is still developing.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: WHO guideline on non-sugar sweeteners (2023); EFSA/JECFA acceptable daily intake
Acesulfame Potassium: regulation, sources and other products →Decode Label Analysis
Contains two artificial sweeteners, Acesulfame Potassium and Sucralose, whose long-term health effects are still under research and may be a concern for some consumers.
Combined Effects interactions
Sodium Benzoate (INS 211) can react with Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) to form benzene, an IARC Group 1 carcinogen. The reaction is influenced by factors like heat, light, and storage conditions. While regulatory limits exist for benzene in beverages, its potential formation is a concern.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.
Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
