How does E6 stack up against the leading brands of energy shots and carbonated energy drinks? Pretty darn well, if we do say so ourselves! Compared to the leading energy shot brands, E6 contains fewer calories, less sodium, and more caffeine in our Energy Blend than even the leading “Extra Strength” brand. That means E6 can keep you feeling attentive and alert longer, without you having to worry about it adding to your daily calorie count.
Compared to the leading carbonated energy drinks? Well as you can see from the chart, there’s really no comparison. Not to mention the convenience of having a 2 oz re-sealable bottle that fits into your pocket, versus an 8- or 16 oz can that goes flat if you don’t drink it all at once.
And did we mention the taste? E6 actually tastes great, with no bitter after-taste!
It’s true, that next to other energy shots and drinks, it appears that E6 might have an excess of caffeine. But, it really does not. The Beverage Industry’s standard average of caffeine content for an 8 oz cup of coffee is 80mg. So, E6 has about twice that, or two cups of coffee worth. However, an 8 oz cup of the leading green-labeled premium coffee brand’s “Coffee of the Week” contains 180mg, according to that company’s website.
That means E6 actually contains a little less caffeine than the smallest available cup of one of the most popular coffees in the world. That’s just enough – when combined with our other B-vitamins, amino acids, and nutrients – to give you that extra energy boost you’re looking for, without getting the jitters.
Since every person’s body chemistry is a little different, if you have sensitivity to caffeine, we recommend only using a half-bottle the first time you try E6.
