The only connection between this supplement and red bull is the taurine ... and I doubt its the taurine that makes your liver hurt. Most likely its the sugar or other garbage.

there's nothing wrong with a cup of coffee in the morning

this stuff is ok...IMHO, there are better 'green' supplements out there though...always worthwhile to research all of the ingredients on a supplement or speak to a registered Naturopath first.

Dooby?

'better' is subjective of course...and the greens+ series is good (I'm not trying to bash it at all)

I've long been a fan of Natural Factors produts (I buy their multivitamins). They have a green supplement, though it's not very tasty at all, so lately, I've been buying the blueberry version of this stuff:

Hey but can you really take the blueberry stuff seriously?

^^^ absolutely...but I'll qualify that statement

blueberries contain some powerful anti-oxidants...some claim that they are one of the 'super foods' in that regard.

the issue is...does any given supplement, juice, extract, etc. actually contain these beneficial compounds or were they never included in the first place or possibly destroyed in the processing stages?

beats me.

this goes for any supplement containing an extract of some sort (garlic, fruits, herbs, plants, etc). It's damn near impossible for us to confirm potency or health benefits of an extract. How do we even know that the manufacturer even KNOWS which compounds are the ones that result in 'x' health benefit?

Oh we have no idea how truthful they're being, or what the benefits really are. I'm just saying that somewhere along the line, some scientist decided that they wanted their discovered molecule to be refered to as a Bioflavanoid
