Ultra Energy

Breakdown

5 ingredients to avoid

Monster Ultra Energy scores 15/100 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.

Monster Ultra Energy lists 27 ingredients, starting with Eau Gazéifiée, Acidifiant, Acide Citrique, Arômes and Concentré de Couleur. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Monster Ultra Energy 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.
