NOCCO (an acronym for No Carbs Company) is a Swedish energy drink company owned by Vitamin Well Group. The company markets NOCCO drinks as a "functional beverage", containing branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and with a relatively high caffeine content (55 mg/100 mL), higher than those found on most popular energy drinks like Monster or Red Bull which contain around 32 mg/100 mL of caffeine.

Safety

Similar to other energy drinks with high caffeine content, NOCCO should be consumed with caution. The drink is not recommended for children, teenagers, pregnant or breastfeeding women. The drink is also not recommended for people with caffeine sensitivity or those who are advised to limit their caffeine intake for health reasons. Drinking more than one can of NOCCO per day may lead to excessive caffeine consumption, which can cause side effects such as insomnia, nervousness, restlessness, stomach irritation, nausea, increased heart rate and palpitations and may surpass the recommended safe daily limit of caffeine intake established by the FDA of 400 mg/day for healthy adults.
