FAQ

Echelon is a performance-energy drink developed with U.S. Military service members. It’s a proprietary blend of highly potent active ingredients that deliver amplified performance and sustained energy with a clean burn.

Echelon is available on US military bases worldwide and on Amazon Prime.

Echelon is best-consumed within the hour before exercise.

You should not drink more than one Echelon daily, as the FDA recommends no more than 400mg of caffeine per-day (Echelon contains 300mg).

We do not recommend mixing alcohol with Echelon.

What you’re feeling is something called paresthesia: a tingling sensation that happens as the body catalyzes beta-alanine. It means Echelon is working!

You should not drink Echelon if you’re sensitive to caffeine, under the age of 18, pregnant or breastfeeding.

Echelon tastes like power: Very bold, juicy and spicy.

Echelon is lightly sweetened with isomaltulose (a low-glycemic carbohydrate) and negligible amounts of sucralose, a zero-calorie sugar.

Echelon is 40 calories, which comes from the combination of isomaltulose and fiber.

We use minimal levels of sucralose for sweetness modulation.  We never use high heat to ensure there’s no breakdown of compounds during production, resulting in a pure and harmless form. We added fiber and isomaltulose to effectively balance the sugar breakdown.

300mg of caffeine, equivalent to about three cups of coffee.

Echelon has a natural hint of spice from capsaicin, an active extract from chili peppers that studies show can help boost your metabolism by increasing energy expenditure, and regulating blood-sugar levels.

No. Echelon is formulated with an Electrolyte blend that includes sodium (1% of recommended daily intake), magnesium, and potassium, all of which are essential for hydration.

Yes. Aluminum is 100% infinitely recyclable material. We’ve chosen aluminum because it’s one of the most sustainable materials available–70% of all aluminum ever made is still in circulation today. Please remove the label and recycle your cans. 

Yes. Echelon does not contain any animal-derived ingredients.

Over the past two years, our community of 2,000+ U.S. Military service members and veterans formulated, iterated and developed Echelon with us. Echelon was created to deliver a performance in line with their specific needs, whether it’s rigorous training, mental acuity and general motor performance. These individuals, representing all branches of service and deployment environments, actively participated in both qualitative and quantitative insight for our R&D team to design the final product. In addition, 40% of our internal team are veterans with high-performance fitness regimens and were all deeply involved in product development. 

We’ve also partnered with the Green Beret foundation, an organization that provides Special Forces Soldiers and their families with emergency, immediate, and ongoing support. We donate a percentage of each sale back to the foundation to support Green Berets and other Special Forces Soldiers.
