When we consume more calories than we use, the excess gets stored as fats, which causes us to gain extra weight. So as a general rule of thumb, 2000 calories are considered the recommended daily calorific requirement for an average human. However, this number may vary wildly depending on gender, height, age, and other factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coming back to Monster Energy, it gives you slightly more than 10% of the average calorie requirement; this by itself isn&rsquo;t a bad thing. But if you&rsquo;re already eating enough to give you all the calories you need, then adding a can of Monster Energy on top isn&rsquo;t the wisest of choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I mean, you can do it, but you&rsquo;ll have to burn off the extra calories by either working out, going for a jog, or swimming. Otherwise, you&rsquo;ll gain weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Monster Energy is far from the ideal choice for a sedentary lifestyle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, this brings me to my other point. Extra calories can be significant for people with active lives who also eat in moderation. They can be an additional reserve of energy for you to burn through during exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whatever side of the spectrum you lie on, keep in mind that overeating is a dangerous habit, and the same goes for overconsumption of energy drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some&nbsp;side&nbsp;effects of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/overeating-effects\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">overeating<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Messes up your hunger control<\/li><li>Increases your body&rsquo;s fat levels<\/li><li>It can be bad for your brain<\/li><li>Make you nauseous and sleepy<\/li><li>Make you more susceptible to diseases<\/li><li>May cause excessive gas and bloating.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So you should consider restructuring your diet if you wish to incorporate Monster Energy into your daily routine. But I wouldn&rsquo;t recommend drinking it daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&rsquo;s talk about Monster Energy&rsquo;s sugar content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sugar_In_Monster_Energy\"><\/span>Sugar In Monster Energy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The sugar content in a single Monster Energy can is truly monstrous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A 16 fl.oz serving has more than 50 grams of sugar!
