That's the same as two cups of coffee, and pretty standard for an energy drink (slightly more than Monster original, slightly less than 5-hour energy)
Eh, for all their advertising, Red Bulls are actually on the weaker side for energy drinks.
So like half of a Reign?
Reign is 300mg, so 2/3rds a reign, but 200mg is the new normal for energy drinks.
Interesting. Ig I mostly remember being terrified and thinking it was insane, thanks for the correction
Can you convert this to espresso shots? I typically have 8 each morning. If this is more affordable I may switch!
Internet says 512mg of caffeine in 8 shots of espresso. I love coffee too but good lord my dude. 😬❤️💥💀
It's just a caffeine supplement packaged and ready to drink, if affordability is your concern just buy a powder supplement and mix it yourself. There's multiple brands with flavored options that'll give you a drink exactly like Prime for like 25c per serve
That is a lot of caffeine to start the day. Not here to drag on another's drug use, but there is validity in weening yourself down from time to time.
Yeah comparing to Coke is kinda dumb
I was curious what a "cup of coffee" is, and according to healthline that would be about 8oz (~227ml) which could deliver anywhere from 70-140mg of caffeine depending on type of coffee and how you brew.
So if you drink a lot of coffee (like me) you consume a shit ton of caffeine... damn.
