Common questions
Is Monster Energy Drink healthy?
Monster Energy Drink scores 40/100 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. 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.
What is in Monster Energy Drink?
Monster Energy Drink lists 22 ingredients, starting with Carbonated Water, Sugar, Glucose, Citric Acid and Flavours. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
Does Monster Energy Drink contain seed oils?
No. Nothing in Monster Energy Drink’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
How processed is Monster Energy Drink?
We don’t have a NOVA classification on file for Monster Energy Drink yet, so the processing axis scores it neutrally.
