Protein Energy Drink

Breakdown

2 ingredients to avoid

GORGIE Protein Energy Drink scores 30/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 8g protein and 0g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

GORGIE Protein Energy Drink lists 19 ingredients, starting with Carbonated Filtered Water, Whey Protein Isolate, Citric Acid, Natural Fruit Punch Flavor and Other Natural Flavors. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

40 kcal per serving, or 11 kcal per 100ml. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores GORGIE Protein Energy Drink on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 30/100 GORGIE Protein Energy Drink scores worse than most energy drinks we have scored. A higher-scoring option in energy drinks is Clean Simple Eats Energy + Focus Energy Drink, Lava Tropic, 12 fl oz at 39/100.
