You wouldn&rsquo;t want to risk the side effects of caffeinated energy drinks, which includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Risk-taking behaviors<\/li><li>Insomnia<\/li><li>Dehydration<\/li><li>Depression<\/li><li>Anxiety<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, always make sure to drink C4 Energy moderately for the sake of your health. My advice is to stick to a <strong>maximum of two cans per day<\/strong>, and if your caffeine tolerance is lower, you can opt for C4 Natural Zero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_Does_C4_Energy_Drink_Last\"><\/span>How Long Does C4 Energy Drink Last?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The effects of caffeine in C4 Energy depends on your tolerance towards this ingredient.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Caffeine&rsquo;s <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/298202#Sugar-crashes,-energy-slumps-and-caffeine-withdrawal\" target=\"_blank\">half-life<\/a> is around <strong>five to six hours<\/strong>, which means that it will stay in your system this long before your bloodstream will slowly decrease its effects. So you&rsquo;ll still have around 100mg of caffeine left in your body even after half a day of consuming C4 Energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&rsquo;ll take almost 12 hours to completely flush out caffeine in your system.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;re someone with high caffeine tolerance, you&rsquo;ll most likely be able to handle C4 Energy. However, if you are like me, who prefers smaller amounts of caffeine, C4 might be a little overwhelming for you.<\/p>\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\/caffeine-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Coffee\" class=\"wp-image-4325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/caffeine-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/caffeine-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/caffeine-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/caffeine-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\/caffeine-1-1024x683.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Coffee\" class=\"wp-image-4325 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/caffeine-1-1024x683.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/caffeine-1-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/caffeine-1-768x512.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/caffeine-1.jpg.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/beastlyenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/caffeine-1.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-4\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption>Are you a coffee person?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\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>In my opinion, C4 Energy makes a great choice for an energy drink as it doesn&rsquo;t contain much health concerning amounts of ingredients.
