Ingredients worth a second look
- High Fructose Corn Syrup (Sweetener) — Offers high sweetness at low cost but leads to rapid blood sugar spikes, promoting obesity, diabetes risk, and dental issues with frequent intake.
- Caramel Color (Color Additive) — Imparts the signature dark hue; while approved for use, certain caramel colors have been scrutinized for containing compounds potentially linked to cancer in animal studies, though typical exposure is low.
- Phosphoric Acid (Acidifier/Preservative) — Enhances flavor tanginess and shelf life but its acidity can damage tooth enamel over time and may leach calcium from bones when overconsumed.
- Caffeine (Stimulant) — Boosts mental alertness and provides a mild energy lift; excessive intake may lead to anxiety, sleep disturbances, dependency, and elevated blood pressure in some consumers.
- Cane Sugar (Sweetener) — Provides sweetness using natural sugarcane source adding 140 calories per serving; leads to blood sugar spikes, increased risk of obesity, diabetes, and tooth decay with regular high consumption.
- Sodium Benzoate (Preservative) — Prevents bacterial growth to extend shelf life; FDA-approved but may cause mild allergic reactions in sensitive people and has minor ongoing debate regarding benzene formation in acidic drinks.
