Bang Energy Peach Mango
At a glance
Summary
Bang Energy Peach Mango scores 40/100. One of the better functional profiles in the category — full-spectrum EAAs (all nine essential amino acids), CoQ10, Creatyl-L-Leucine and methylcobalamin B12, the superior bioactive form. Zero sugar. Against that: two artificial sweeteners (sucralose + acesulfame potassium), sodium benzoate, calcium disodium EDTA as an industrial chelating agent, natural flavors, and 300mg of caffeine anhydrous — a high dose of synthetic rather than plant-derived caffeine.
