Rating:     We Avoid

Ingredient Score:

Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the ‘Monster Juice Monster Mango Loco’ falls notably short on the scale of cleaner food options. This beverage is not organic, which immediately reduces its standing on our health-conscious scale. Additionally, the absence of non-GMO ingredients further diminishes its rating.

The inclusion of added sugars, such as sugar and citric acid, poses a concern for those seeking healthier alternatives. The product also contains glucose and sucralose, which are considered more harmful types of added sugars. These ingredients are often linked to negative health effects when consumed in excess.

A significant issue with ‘Monster Juice Monster Mango Loco’ is the presence of potentially harmful additives. These include natural flavors and artificial colors like Red 40, which have been scrutinized for their safety and potential health risks. Moreover, the product contains preservatives such as potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate, which, while commonly used in the food industry, carry their own health concerns.

The beverage also lists maltodextrin among its ingredients, a highly processed substance that can spike blood sugar levels, making it a less desirable component for those monitoring their glucose intake. The presence of various synthetic vitamins like pyridoxine hydrochloride (Vit. B6) and riboflavin (Vit. B2) might appear beneficial, but they do not compensate for the product’s overall lack of natural, wholesome ingredients.

The ‘Monster Juice Monster Mango Loco’ is a product that fails to meet the standards set by our rating system for cleaner, healthier food options. Its composition of non-organic, GMO-containing ingredients, added sugars, and potentially harmful additives makes it a product that our website recommends avoiding. The low green leaf rating reflects the product’s position at the bottom of the health-conscious spectrum, indicating that consumers should exercise caution and consider healthier alternatives when selecting beverages.
