How much sugar is in an energy drink?
Energy drinks come in both regular and sugar-free option, giving Canadians a wide range of products to choose from. While the sugar levels may vary, for those that contain sugar, it is at levels that are around the same as an equivalent volume of other sugar-sweetened beverages.The sugar in energy drinks is not just for flavour, it’s also for function. Like other mainstream foods and beverages, nutrient and ingredient information (including the amount of sugar) can be found in the Nutrition Facts table, as well as the ingredients list on the back of the label.
