Each energy shot has 2.5 oz. of concentrated energy – besides the 10,000% daily value of B12, you’ll also get other essential B vitamins and a proprietary blend of herbs for lasting energy – all with an ideal combination of sweet and tart flavors, with no sugar or carbs.

So get sustained, safe energy with no more caffeine (83 mg) than a small cup of coffee in an energy shot that you’ll enjoy – taste and compare the flavor to other shots you’ve tried for a lift that lasts hours, not minutes.

FAQ
 

What is the expected XS® Energy Shot shelf life?
The expected shelf life is 18 months.

How much caffeine is in each XS Energy Shot?
The caffeine in the XS Energy Shot is 83 mg, which is equal to a small cup of coffee.

Are XS Energy Shots kosher/halal certified?
At this time, the XS Energy Shots are not kosher certified, but we expect that certification within the next few months. The XS Energy Shot formula uses the same ingredients as our XS Energy Drinks, so we don’t anticipate any issues getting kosher approval.

Is it safe to consume 10,000% of the daily value of B12?
The Council for Responsible Nutrition recommends 3,000 mcg of vitamin B12 per day to be the upper limit of safe intake. This amount is 50,000% of the daily value for vitamin B12. While the XS Energy products are packed with vitamin B12, one’s intake of vitamin B12 falls well below the upper limit of safety when the recommended limit of two beverages per day is followed.

Is sucralose or Ace-K the sweetening agent?
Both sucralose and acesulfame potassium (Ace-K) are used in the XS Energy Shot formula. They are also used in the XS Energy Drinks.

What type of resin is used in the bottle and is the bottle recyclable?
The resin used in the XS Energy Shots bottle is High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). It is a recyclable bottle.

Does the XS Energy Shot contain phosphorus?
There is no phosphorus intentionally added to XS Energy Shots. There are trace amounts found in the blueberry juice that is used in the XS Energy Shot flavor – Wild Berry.
