what about energy gels, such as GU, which are popular with runners & cyclists?
please send me a list of all the foods that contain caffeine not including drinks or chocolate thank you
Thank you for this site. Contains detailed information and reasonable steps to protect our health.
I would love a list of all foods that contain caffeine sent to me as well if thats possible.
Hi there, an addition for your list: Bioplus Booster
http://www.adcock.co.za/ConsumerCareProduct.aspx?ProductId=361
An extract from the package insert:
PROPRIETARY NAME BIOPLUS BOOSTER - STRAWBERRY
(and dosage form): Syrup
COMPOSITION:
Each 10 ml sachet contains:
Calcium Gluconate 300 mg
Caffeine Anhydrous 90 mg
Calcium Citrate 60 mg
Riboflavin (Vit. B2) 3,67 mg
Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Vit. B6) 3 mg
Nicotinamide (Vit. B3) 14 mg

d- Pantothenol 3,66 mg
Cyanocobalamine (Vit. B12) 4 μg
Cliff Energy Cool Mint Chocolate also adds green tea -a reported equivalent of 50mg on their packaging
What about Snickers Charged (limited edition). I just bought 4 at the book store for $0.50 each. It advertises caffeine, taurine and B-vitamins.
Ingredients:
Milk chocolate, Peanuts, Corn Syrup, Sugar, Milkfat, Skim Milk, Vegetable Oil, Chocolate, Taurine, Lactose, Salt, Caffeine, Egg Whites, Vitamins, Vitamin B6, Biotin, Vitamin B-12, Artificial Flavor.
Opps, one quick search shows you got it already… still not in the above chart though…
How much caffeine, if any, would be found in a basic “box” type chocolate cake mix (ie. Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines)? Also, how much , if any, caffeine would you find in an average ready made chocolate icing that goes on top of cakes?
Thanks,
dario
LOL, I just sent the beverages page to my GF via E-mail. She’s been after me because she thinks I drink too much Pepsi (3 cans a day or 114 mg) but yet she drinks coffee in the morning without fail.
I was actually surprised at how little caffeine my Pepsi has in it.
I have the same request.
I would also love a list of all foods that contain caffeine.
Thank you for the site I just learned at age 28 I have a heart condition that is genetic and the symptoms are aggravated by caffeine and will now have to monitor my intake. THanks
