I wouldn't drink that, it's basically strong mix of chemicals that makes the body and brain work harder, and when the effects are off, if not rested properly they can possibly induce some unwanted effects. I don't like that. Plain ol' coffee is enough for me

Here you are a wiki about Red Bull that talk about energizers in general.
RedBull Wiki Here is a quote of the last part of the Health concerns subtopic: QUOTE The sale of Red Bull is prohibited in some countries, usually due to its taurine content or its alleged high level of caffeine. However, many countries which formerly banned Red Bull (and similar energy drinks) have revised their legislation to allow drinks containing taurine or higher amounts of caffeine, including Switzerland (1994), Finland (2005) and France (2008). As of 2008, Red Bull remains prohibited as a soft drink in Norway, Uruguay, Denmark and Iceland.[citation needed] In 2001, the drink was investigated by the Swedish National Food Administration after being linked to the deaths of three consumers [10]. It has been subject to a number of other health concerns regarding glucuronolactone, a precursor of taurine. Glucuronolactone is a naturally occurring chemical compound produced by the metabolism of glucose in the human liver. It has received some notoriety due to urban legends that it was a Vietnam War-era drug manufactured by the American government.[citation needed] The rumor goes on to say that it was banned due to several brain tumor-related deaths.[citation needed] The rumor has since been proven false, as neither the cited British Medical Journal article nor the "banning of its consumption" ever occurred. Due to the link with taurine, only energy drinks without taurine are sold in France, but infant formula sold there (and worldwide) is commonly supplemented with taurine.[citation needed]. Furthermore, no warnings appear on the Food and Drug Administration website regarding its potential to cause brain tumors or other maladies[11] Since May 20th 2008 an alternative form of Red Bull containing arginine to replace taurine has been available in France.[12] Only days later, France removed the ban and Red Bull is now available in its original formula, including taurine [13]. A common concern regarding the beverage is its supposedly high caffeine level. Proponents of the beverage counter critics by stating that a serving has roughly the same amount of caffeine as that found in a cup of coffee. [14] Studies have proven that there is a positive link between drinking Red Bull and reducing levels of cortisol, but it may also lead to a high blood-pressure problem if drunk to excess.[citation needed] Results of a small study suggested to avoid the drink in case of suffering high blood pressure or heart disease [15] Swedish National Food Administration warned that Red Bull should not be consumed combined with alcohol or after strenuous exercise [16] Red Bull spokesperson recommended the consumption of no more than one to two cans [17]. There are examples of people suffering heart disturbances after drinking eight cans of Red Bull [18][19]. American pop singer and actor Jesse McCartney had a health scare from consuming too much Red Bull which drastically lowered his iron count to single digits. He was put on supplements and ordered to stop drinking Red Bull by his doctor. Not that bad, uh?! |
