beverages like energy drinks are also great for when you&rsquo;re driving long distances and you need something to keep you awake. A <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/21063868\/\" target=\"_blank\">study<\/a> conducted on prolonged driving over 6 hours reported that the <strong>ingestion of Red Bull reduced driver sleepiness and significantly enhanced driving performance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bang can provide all the aforementioned benefits as it has more than enough caffeine present. However, as beneficial as this stimulant may be, caffeine isn&rsquo;t something you should have in large quantities at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/consumers\/consumer-updates\/spilling-beans-how-much-caffeine-too-much\" target=\"_blank\">FDA<\/a>, the recommended maximum daily caffeine intake is <strong>no more than 400mg for healthy adults. <\/strong>If you have more than that, you might end up with <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/caffeine.html\" target=\"_blank\">adverse<\/a> effects such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Restlessness and shakiness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anxiety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Headache<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Insomnia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dizziness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rapid or abnormal heart rhythm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With 300mg of caffeine, Bang comes close to hitting the daily caffeine limit, so it&rsquo;s best to <strong>stick to only a can of Bang per day<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You must also take note of the warning label at the back of the can and avoid having other caffeine-containing products alongside Bang.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way you can avoid adverse effects is by having Bang (and other energy drinks for that matter) in moderation and staying within the daily caffeine limit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/28.jpg\" alt=\"Ground coffee powder and coffee beans.\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/28.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Ground coffee powder and coffee beans.\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-6\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Caffeine can be beneficial or harmful depending on how much you consume.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Artificial_Sweeteners_Are_In_Bang\"><\/span><strong>What Artificial Sweeteners Are In Bang?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The artificial sweetener that&rsquo;s in Bang Energy drink is sucralose. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/sucralose-good-or-bad#what-it-is\" target=\"_blank\">Sucralose<\/a> is a non-nutritive sweetener that functions as a flavor enhancer for our everyday food and drink products.

If you lead an active lifestyle, Bang would be a great complement for you as it&rsquo;ll supply you with tons of energy without the extra calories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides that, if you&rsquo;re worried about the safety of sucralose, don&rsquo;t be, because <strong>sucralose is one of the FDA&rsquo;s-<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/food\/food-additives-petitions\/high-intensity-sweeteners\" target=\"_blank\">approved<\/a> high-intensity sweeteners<\/strong> that are deemed safe for general use and consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it&rsquo;s important to remember that <strong>sucralose must still be consumed in moderation<\/strong> as its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S1043276013000878\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">long-term<\/a> effects remain inconclusive.

After these stimulating effects wear off, it&rsquo;s normal for you to feel less alert and focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you experience symptoms like extreme tiredness, headaches, irritability, or the inability to concentrate, it&rsquo;s a sign of a caffeine <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/caffeine-crash#What-is-a-caffeine-crash?\" target=\"_blank\">crash<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But this also depends on the kind of caffeine consumer you are, how often you consume caffeine and when you choose to have your caffeine fix.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Experiencing a crash after drinking Bang is also possible if you used Bang to pull an all-nighter to help you stay awake.
