200mg caffeine in a 330ml ready-to-drink can
Applied Nutrition ABE Energy Can is the ready-to-drink version of the ABE pre-workout formula - carbonated, zero calories and shelf-stable. Each 330ml can delivers 200mg of caffeine, 2g of citrulline malate, 2g of beta-alanine, 1g of betaine anhydrous, 200mg of taurine and 200mg of L-tyrosine. The pack contains 6 cans across several flavour options.
Caffeine at 200mg provides energy and focus without the 250mg ceiling of the powder version - a controlled stimulant load suited to those who want a sharp but measured hit. Citrulline malate at 2g supports blood flow during exercise. Beta-alanine at 2g buffers lactate build-up. Betaine anhydrous at 1g is a cell volumiser associated with power output. L-tyrosine at 200mg supports focus under physical stress. Vitamins B3 at 32mg and B12 contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism and reduction of tiredness.
ABE Cans fill a real gap: a pre-workout for sessions when a shaker is not available. The zero-calorie, no-prep format is faster to consume than the water needed for the powder. Compared to standard energy drinks, the can includes exercise-relevant actives - citrulline, beta-alanine, betaine - that consumer products like Monster or Red Bull do not contain.
ABE Cans suit gym-goers who travel frequently or want the occasional convenience of an RTD alongside their usual powder.
