the truth about Red Bull

I've heard everything from mixing it with alcohol can kill you to it's just extremely unhealthy.

Can someone set the record straight and give me the facts about it and what is true and what isn't preferably from a website. I drink it with vodka all the time and havn't croaked

Don't drink it if you plan to have your heart rate increased significantly for a somewhat long duration of time.

It ain't no different than Dr. Pepper.
BTW, the Doc is the way to mix Grain Alcohol into a palatable drink!

Don't smoke weed or do other drugs if you plan to have your heart rate increased significantly for a somewhat long duration of time.

You don't usually get heart attacks from those.

I know a lot of people who drink red bull and i havn't heard of one heart attack from someone my age (19). I know mary-j won't give you a heart attack but some drugs will.

Go and drink 2 red bulls and dance for 7 to 10 hours non-stop. Then get back to me on how you're feeling me.

I've danced for longer than that without drinking red bull so it is very much possible to feel alright after dancing so much.

If there was anything even remotely harmful about Red Bull, it wouldn't be on the market. And they have an awful lot of data to draw from, because people regularly abuse it for the sole active ingredient it contains: caffeine. Coffee contains significantly more caffeine than Red Bull, so start grilling the Columbian coffee guy and his donkey first if you're worried about health effects.

Alcohol is a hundred times more dangerous for your system, and considering the even longer history of data that drug carries, I wouldn't be too worried about getting hopped up on a glorifed can of joe.

I can't understand banning it unless they refused to change the label or something. I mean alcohol can kill you, for fucks sakes tylenol can kill you.

The one where millions and millions of dollars go into mandatory testing of consumables before they ever hit shelves, not the fantasy world where evil Orwellian corporations sneak secret bad stuff into our food supply for kicks. I know, it's boring to know that the system really works, and thrilling to imagine a drama where it doesn't.

Caffeine is the only thing in Red Bull that acts on a chemical level.


Posted by trancebrat on Mar-08-2005 04:26:

Why is Red Bull getting so much slack? I prefer Monster or Lost Energy anyways. I've drank six Red Bulls in less than three hours. Another time I drank two Monsters and four Red Bulls in three hours. To the best of my recollection I don't recall having a heart attack and neither time did I die. At least I hope I didn't.

Amino acids and vitamins are not active drugs. The only thing in Red Bull that does jack shit is caffeine, and to believe anything else is simply superstition or marketing, with no factual basis in science.

One can of Red Bull contains 80mg of caffeine - equivalent to one cup of coffee.

On my god, one cup of coffee?!?! Holy shit!!! Send out the DEA!!!

So it's been banned in other countries and there is controversy over it in so many others because it's as harmless as coffee?

ecstasy is indeed a drug, but a stimulant. weed is a depressant. and a mild hallucinogen. drugs don't just bring you 'up'. you heard of halcyon? paxil? roofies? k? yer.

ecstacy isn't a depressant? i would think it would be more of one than weed considering how much highter E can bring you.
