Energy drink without sugar
Energy drink without sugar: high in histamine and salicylate. If you're sensitive to any of these, check it against your profile before eating.
Intolerances
- Histamine (+liberators / DAO inhibitors)High
The sugar-free energy drink keeps every mechanism that put the original here - the caffeine, the benzoate, the colours - and swaps sucrose for an intense sweetener. Removing the sugar removes no histamine, and the caffeine dose per can is usually identical.

Energy drink without sugar: the sugar-free version keeps the same flavourings, plant extracts and colourings, which is where the salicylate and the cross-reacting additives sit. Nothing is removed on this axis. Neither study publishes a value for this particular drink.
