Bang is also a good alternative to conventional energy drinks since it doesn&rsquo;t contain calories or sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But behind all the purported benefits and positive claims about Bang, you may also be wondering if Bang is vegan-friendly?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\"><strong>The short answer is: Bang energy drinks are vegan friendly as stated on their official website. However, there are some underlying concerns about whether the ingredients are in fact really vegan friendly. <\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Join me as I explore the ingredients in Bang, from the

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong> Coffee beans and brew are both vegan. You may think of it as a mixture of water and the different chemicals that are removed from the coffee beans during the brewing process. That&rsquo;s why we can confidently say it&rsquo;s entirely plant-based. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, because milk is often used in brewed coffee, vegans run into issues when more ingredients are added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_BCAAs_Vegan-Friendly\"><\/span><strong>Are BCAAs Vegan-Friendly?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BCAAs that are sourced synthetically or from plant-based sources are vegan friendly. However, there are some BCAAs that are produced from animal sources, so you should definitely double-check the source of the BCAAs that you&rsquo;re consuming first.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Branched-chain amino acids (<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/bcaa#TOC_TITLE_HDR_3\" target=\"_blank\">BCAAs<\/a>) consist of three essential amino acids which are leucine, isoleucine, and valine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the proven <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/22569039\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/22569039\/\" target=\"_blank\">benefits<\/a> of BCAAs include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Enhanced rate of muscle growth<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reduction in <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/22569039\/\">muscle<\/a> soreness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Decreased symptoms of exercise fatigue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prevention of muscle wasting<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BCAAs can&rsquo;t be produced naturally by your body,<\/strong> so you need to obtain them through your diet. You&rsquo;ll find high amounts of BCAAs in <strong>protein-rich foods<\/strong> like meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and cheese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BCAAs can also be obtained from <strong>vegan-friendly sources<\/strong> like tofu and tempeh, although unfortunately, the majority of BCAA supplements don&rsquo;t come from vegan-friendly sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past, nearly all BCAAs available were made from keratin that&rsquo;s processed chemically from animal hair, hooves, and feather. The most horrifying part is that in some cases, a few mainstream BCAA supplements were made from human hair!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, nowadays <strong>vegan BCAA supplements<\/strong> are becoming more common so as to cater to people following a strict vegan diet. Still, it can be difficult to differentiate which BCAA supplements are vegan and which aren&rsquo;t unless it&rsquo;s clearly stated on the label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As to whether the BCAAs in Bang Energy are vegan or not, another <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/reizeclub.com\/bang-energy-drink-vegan\/#Bang_energy_drink_ingredients_%E2%80%93_Vegan_friendly\" target=\"_blank\">writer<\/a> stated that the <strong>BCAAs in Bang weren&rsquo;t vegan-friendly as they might have been derived from animal sources<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides that, the majority of users in this archived <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/veganfitness\/comments\/8z6j36\/bang_energy_drinks_are_they_vegan\/\" target=\"_blank\">Reddit<\/a> thread agreed that <strong>Bang Energy isn&rsquo;t vegan at all<\/strong> because the BCAAs in Bang is supposedly processed from feathers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But before you jump the gun and start throwing out every can of Bang you bought, if you go to the official Bang Energy <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bangenergy.com\/shop\/bang-4-pack\/\" target=\"_blank\">website<\/a>, it states that the reformulated versions of Bang are certified <a href=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/is-bang-energy-drink-gluten-free\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1672\">gluten-free <\/a>and vegan-friendly.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can identify the new reformulated versions of Bang Energy drinks by searching for cans that have &lsquo;EAA Aminos&rsquo; printed on them and, according to Bang, you can rest assured that they are in fact verified vegan-friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Super_Creatine_Vegan-Friendly\"><\/span><strong>Is Super Creatine Vegan-Friendly?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>There aren&rsquo;t many available details about Super Creatine, but it&rsquo;s safe to say that Super Creatine is vegan.

It&rsquo;s often consumed to help <strong>increase <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/24688272\/\">muscle<\/a> mass, enhance physical performance<\/strong> and<strong> improve muscle strength.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creatine is usually obtained from animal sources like red meat and fish, and can&rsquo;t be found in <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/7-nutrients-you-cant-get-from-plants#2.-Creatine\" target=\"_blank\">plants<\/a>. But, a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC7246861\/#:~:text=It%20should%20be%20noted%20that,therefore%20%E2%80%9Cvegan%2Dfriendly%E2%80%9D.\" target=\"_blank\">2020<\/a> study reported that the <strong>creatine in most supplements is synthetically processed from sarcosine and cyanamide<\/strong>, which doesn&rsquo;t contain any animal by-products and thus is <strong>vegan-friendly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now coming back to Super Creatine. Super Creatine is claimed to be the &lsquo;world&rsquo;s only water-stable creatine&rsquo;, which was then exposed and shot down later by Thermolife International, LLC in a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/thermolife-international-llc-files-suit-against-vpx-the-maker-of-bang-energy-drink-alleging-super-creatine-is-not-actually-creatine-and-that-all-bang-energy-products-are-misbranded-300730106.html\" target=\"_blank\">lawsuit<\/a> that claimed false marketing and advertising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thermolife&rsquo;s complaint mentioned that Super Creatine is in fact just a covalently bonded creatine dipeptide and that it doesn&rsquo;t give you any benefits at all after ingestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This very question has also been discussed on a Reddit <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/energydrinks\/comments\/d5j6e0\/pretty_sure_bang_actually_has_zero_creatine\/\" target=\"_blank\">thread<\/a> and it was generally agreed that Super Creatine wasn&rsquo;t exactly creatine or might not even exist at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Since we&rsquo;re unsure of what exactly Super Creatine is, or whether it&rsquo;s beneficial, or if it even exists, we can&rsquo;t say for certain if it&rsquo;s actually vegan friendly.

It&rsquo;s commonly sold under the brand &ldquo;Splenda&rdquo; and is used in food products like chewing gum, dairy products, syrups, and canned fruits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In general, sucralose doesn&rsquo;t contain any animal products.<\/strong> Though one of the starting materials for Sucralose is sugar and there&rsquo;s <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.iamgoingvegan.com\/is-sucralose-vegan\/\" target=\"_blank\">evidence<\/a> that the sugar used in the processing of Sucralose is not filtered with bone char, but with a <strong>coal-derived filter<\/strong> instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Splenda is also typically combined together with Dextrose and Maltodextrin<\/strong>. You have nothing to be alarmed about though as <strong>both of these ingredients come from corn starch and thus are also vegan-friendly.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>If you&rsquo;re following a vegan diet for health purposes only, you probably won&rsquo;t have a problem having foods and drinks that contain Sucralose. But if you&rsquo;re an <strong>ethical vegan<\/strong>, you should consider avoiding Bang Energy, even if the ingredients are technically vegan.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>All in all, it depends on where you stand as a vegan. The official website has verified that the reformulated versions of Bang Energy are vegan-friendly and gluten-free so perhaps they really are vegan-friendly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to read more about <a href=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/is-bang-energy-drink-gluten-free\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1672\">just how gluten-free Bang is<\/a>, check out my other article where I cover the topic in great depth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_The_B_Vitamins_Complex_In_Bang_Vegan-Friendly\"><\/span><strong>Are The B Vitamins Complex In Bang Vegan-Friendly?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>All of the B vitamins in Bang energy drinks are <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vrg.org\/ingredients\/#niacin\" target=\"_blank\">synthetic<\/a> and thus are vegan-friendly.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bang Energy contains three types of B vitamins, namely <strong>niacinamide (vitamin B3), pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6) and methylcobalamin (vitamin B12)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A sufficient intake of B <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/325292\" target=\"_blank\">vitamins<\/a> ensures that our bodies function properly as they play important roles in <strong>converting food into energy<\/strong> to promote healthy skin and brain cells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, if you&rsquo;re following a vegan or vegetarian diet, you might not be getting enough vitamin B12. Vitamin <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hsph.harvard.edu\/nutritionsource\/vitamin-b12\/\" target=\"_blank\">B12<\/a> is usually obtained from animal products like meat and fish.
