sugar, the regulatory approves the statement “No Sugar”.
Why do XS™ Power Drinks taste so good with no sugar and very few
calories?
XS™ Power Drinks use sucralose and Acesulfame-K instead of sugar. Flavoured with a herbal blend
of Chinese ginseng and acai berry, this combination gives the drinks their great flavour without the
calories from sugar.

If XS™ does not contain sugar, why does it have calories?
Calories don't only come from sugar, there are many other substances which carry calories. The
calories in XS™ Power Drinks are caused due to the essential inclusion of the ingredients Taurine,
Citric acid and Inositol.
Why is it important NOT to have sugar or carbohydrate calories in XS™
Power Drink?
Calories from sugar and carbohydrates may increase fat deposits. Simple carbohydrates are also
called high-glycemic (high-sugar) foods. High-glycemic foods cause your body to pump insulin in
order to digest the sugar, which sends a message to your body to store calories as fat. There has
been a lot of discussion lately in the press about the fact that the sugar balance in diets has increased
dramatically in recent years, causing all sorts of diseases such as diabetes and obesity. Therefore, it
is important to watch one's sugar balance and live a healthy and responsible lifestyle in general
