Consequently, the NOS Energy brand was transferred to Monster Beverage together with Coca-Cola&rsquo;s other variants of energy drinks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NOS is known for two things: for being a high-performance energy drink and an avid supporter of motorsports.<\/strong> Until today, NOS has a whole team of professional drivers representing them at events and helping them put the brand name out there.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can visit their official <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCEhvyjsRnafjYmqwJ_haguw\">Youtube <\/a>page for their incredible content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calories_in_NOS_Energy_Drink\"><\/span>Calories in NOS Energy Drink&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A 16 fl. oz can of NOS has 210 calories. <\/strong>That&rsquo;s a lot, but not unusual for an energy drink. That&rsquo;s because energy drinks are like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yazio.com\/en\/foods\/energy-drinks\">soft drinks<\/a> in that they normally have more than 150 calories per can.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drinking too much of NOS Energy in day will certainly add more to your weight and could bring health issues when consumed irresponsibly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, it&rsquo;s worth mentioning that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/common-health-questions\/food-and-diet\/what-should-my-daily-intake-of-calories-be\/#:~:text=An%20ideal%20daily%20intake%20of,women%20and%202%2C500%20for%20men.\">recommended<\/a> calorie intake is 2000 a day. So, the amount of calories in a single can of NOS won&rsquo;t be a problem if you&rsquo;re following a strict diet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to burn all the extra calories by exercising and watching what you eat.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Caffeine_Content_in_NOS_Energy_Drink\"><\/span>Caffeine Content in NOS Energy Drink<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Coffee beans\" class=\"wp-image-5780\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2-1024x683.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Coffee beans\" class=\"wp-image-5780 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2-1024x683.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2-768x512.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2.jpg.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-igor-haritanovich-1695052_1250x-2.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-5\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Coffee beans, the world&rsquo;s most common source of caffeine.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NOS has 160mg of caffeine per can.<\/strong> That&rsquo;s an average of 10mg per 1 fl.oz.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The recommended caffeine consumption limit is 400mg per day.<\/strong> Taking that into consideration, NOS is definitely leaning towards being on the higher side of caffeinated drinks but still within acceptable levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Managing how much caffeine you put in your body is important because like everything else, it can jeopardize your health if taken in excess.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When taken in moderation, however, caffeine from a cup of coffee or an energy drink can be a good alerting agent.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Caffeine works by blocking adenosine, a sleep-promoting hormone<\/strong>. It can also speed up your reaction time and cognitive abilities while it&rsquo;s active in your bloodstream.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, <strong>blocking adenosine can have the unwanted effect of disrupting your circadian rhythm (sleep cycle).<\/strong> It can also raise heart rate and blood pressure. Both are things that could be bad for people with health complications and circulatory illnesses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Other side effects of too much caffeine include sleep deprivation, insomnia, and dehydration.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For reference, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/health\/sleep-deprivation\/effects-on-body\">side effects<\/a> of sleep deprivation are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Memory issues<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trouble concentrating<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Moodiness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Slow reaction time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Weakened immune system<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Weight gain<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, dehydration can also cause unusual reactions such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Dizziness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dehydration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dizziness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fatigue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Palpitations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dark yellow urine<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Not urinating at all&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For students and young professionals who need to stay alert all day, having NOS Energy could be of great help. You can have it in two parts, one in the morning and the rest in the afternoon. Doing this will give you a leeway for other food and drinks that you want to have during the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sugar_Content_in_NOS_Energy_Drink\"><\/span>Sugar Content in NOS Energy Drink<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Sugar with strawberries on the side.\" class=\"wp-image-5781\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1-1024x683.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Sugar with strawberries on the side.\" class=\"wp-image-5781 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1-1024x683.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1-768x512.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1.jpg.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/pexels-mali-maeder-141815_1250x-1.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-6\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Who can say no to a spoonful of sugar?<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NOS has 54g of sugar per can, making it high in sugar.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To put that into perspective, the ideal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heart.org\/en\/healthy-living\/healthy-eating\/eat-smart\/sugar\/how-much-sugar-is-too-much\">sugar intake<\/a> is 25g a day for women and 36g daily for men.

It probably won&rsquo;t happen right away, but it&rsquo;s possible that you can be diagnosed even at a young age.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Type-2_Diabetes\"><\/span>Type-2 Diabetes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What exactly is Type-2 diabetes?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Type-2 is usually seen in people above age 45, though it&rsquo;s not impossible for it to happen earlier. While <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/type-1-diabetes\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20353011#:~:text=Type%201%20diabetes%2C%20once%20known,enter%20cells%20to%20produce%20energy.\">Type 1<\/a> diabetes occurs in adolescents in children because of an issue with the immune system.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being diagnosed with Type-2 diabetes also has a number of risk factors, including family history and lifestyle (yup, that includes diet).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Energy drinks can also cause insulin resistance. If you&rsquo;re diagnosed and have been taking medications, it might be best to avoid drinking energy or highly caffeinated drinks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of that, I&rsquo;d recommend only drinking NOS when you only need to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Artificial_Sweeteners_in_NOS_Energy_Drink\"><\/span>Artificial Sweeteners in NOS Energy Drink<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The artificial sweeteners in NOS are High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) and sucralose (Splenda).&nbsp;<\/strong>Together with sugar, these two are what give NOS its flavor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Artificial sweeteners are known for providing flavor to food and drinks without adding to caloric content or adding very little if they do.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Splenda is also known for being up to <a href=\"https:\/\/foodinsight.org\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-sucralose\/\">600 times<\/a> sweeter in sugar, which is why it&rsquo;s popular with diabetics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from coffee, you can add Splenda in your juice drinks, or any beverage that needs a little sweetening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But no worries, both of them have been declared safe by the FDA.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&rsquo;s where it gets tricky: on one hand, there have been studies on how sucralose can possibly hamper the balance of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/sucralose-good-or-bad#gut-health\">gut bacteria<\/a>. But those have also been inconclusive so far, just like the studies that suggest sucralose might be linked to other health problems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, we know <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/why-high-fructose-corn-syrup-is-bad#1.-Adds-an-unnatural-amount-of-fructose-to-your-diet\">HFCS<\/a> can increase your risk of fatty liver disease. This is because processing HFCS causes more fat to accumulate in your liver, gives your liver a harder time functioning well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Does this mean that you should avoid artificial sweeteners?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the aforementioned health problems something you can experience when you have too many artificial ingredients. You&rsquo;ll be fine as long as you&rsquo;re careful to not eat or drink too much of anything with a lot of those. NOS included.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_Does_It_Take_For_NOS_Energy_to_Work\"><\/span>How Long Does It Take For NOS Energy to Work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NOS usually kicks in about 10 minutes &mdash;<\/strong> <strong>the same amount of time <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencefocus.com\/the-human-body\/how-long-does-caffeine-take-to-kick-in\/\">caffeine<\/a> needs to kick in.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, depending on the sugar level some flavors might take a little longer to kick in than others. Your body&rsquo;s tolerance for coffee, sugar and the other substances in NOS could also affect its potency.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Just like coffee, NOS stays for a few hours before the boost wears off. In my case, it lasted for about 4-5 hours per can.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This also means you can expect the caffeine to stay a while. It&rsquo;ll need a few hours to reach its half-life when the level of caffeine in your bloodstream is half of what it used to be.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if caffeine needs 6 hours after consumption to reach half-life, then drinking NOS at 5 pm would make it difficult for you to sleep at night.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take this into consideration when you want to have NOS or any caffeinated drink, for that matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_long_does_NOS_drink_last\"><\/span><strong>How long does NOS drink last? <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In most cases, the effects of a NOS energy drink will continue for three to five hours. It&rsquo;s also important to consider the size of the drink. When compared to consuming a larger can, the effects of a smaller can will likely wear off faster.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, there are several variables at play, such as how much you drink, how quickly you guzzle it, and what you do whilst drinking. Even more so if you combine your NOS energy drink with alcohol and then wait a while for the effects to wear off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NOS_Energy_Drink_Flavors\"><\/span>NOS Energy Drink Flavors<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>NOS has six flavors you can try. All of them come in 16 fl.oz cans, but only the original flavor can be bought as a 24 fl.oz can right now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This includes flavors such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>GT Grape<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nitro Mango<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sonic Sour<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Power Punch<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Turbo<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"NOS Energy Drink Product Review.

He provides feedback on NOS energy and other interesting facts that you might want to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who would like to try NOS for the first time, CaffeineMan recommends going for the Mango Flavor, which he gave the highest score of 8.8. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also gives a quick background on the drink&rsquo;s history, if you happen to be curious about that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_NOS_better_than_Red_Bull\"><\/span><strong>Is NOS better than Red Bull?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong> In terms of practicality, NOS is functionally equivalent to typical energy drinks like Red Bull in offering a burst of energy. Hence, you may confidently use NOS if you need to pull an all-nighter or for some extra power during the day.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> However, NOS has high levels of calories and sugar, which may have some undesirable consequences on health. Daily consumption, or the consumption of two or more cans, may put you at risk for a caffeine overdose and diabetes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_Can_I_Buy_NOS_Energy_Drink\"><\/span>Where Can I Buy NOS Energy Drink?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>NOS can be purchased using the store locator found on the official website. It only caters those living in the US. If you&rsquo;re living abroad and would like to try out NOS Energy, you can send them an email or find a reseller online. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides that, there are many shopping sites both dedicated to food and otherwise, that sell it. That includes Amazon if you&rsquo;re willing to pay for shipping fees and the like. Still, even there a lot of sellers don&rsquo;t ship outside of the US.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Amazon, a dozen pack of 16 fl.oz cans costs AROUND $41.00, which gives you $3.49 per can. Do note that the prices can vary between sellers and websites though. It can also get more expensive if you need to pay shipping fees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Verdict\"><\/span>Final Verdict<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NOS is an average energy drink.&nbsp;It tastes great and has everything, including a lot of calories, which can be a big consideration for the health-conscious. It also has <em>a lot <\/em>more sugar than what most people can safely consume in a day.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combine that with its high caffeine content, and you get an energy drink that can give you a fast-acting boost that lasts for hours. Just be careful not to consume it too close to bedtime.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its high caffeine and sugar content might also make it unsafe to consume for people who are sensitive to those suffering from heart problems since drinking an energy drink like NOS can complicate your symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&rsquo;s also harder to buy than most energy drinks on the market. Buyers outside of the States might have a difficult time finding the right store. It can also be a little bit too pricey for those living outside of the States.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, it&rsquo;s great at what it&rsquo;s meant to do. I&rsquo;d definitely recommend buying it for those all-nighters. Just remember to not overdo it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_Articles\"><\/span>Other Articles:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/how-much-nos-energy-can-you-drink-a-day\/\">How Much NOS Energy Can You Drink A Day?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/is-nos-energy-drink-bad-for-you\/\">Is NOS Energy Drink Bad For You?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/nos-energy-drink-nutrition-facts\/\">NOS Energy Drink Nutrition Facts<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/is-nos-energy-drink-vegan-analysis\/\">Is NOS Energy Drink Vegan?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/does-nos-energy-drink-actually-work\/\">Does NOS Energy Drink Actually Work?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many brands have come and gone over the years.
