Default red bull?

has there been any studies or stuff to see exactly how bad this stuff is for you cause it's pretty much kept me alive for the past 2 weeks and I know that can't be a good thing but I'm wondering if it's doing any proper damage or if there's nothing wrong with usiong it to keep you going.

I've heard so many rumors about this stuff... The latest one being that it was made of Bull Pee!

I haven't had any experience with Red Bull, but my brother's drank a few cans of it in the past year and he hasn't suffered any ill effects. That said, a doctor on the radio said pretty much all energy drinks are bad for people to consume.

If you're looking for a non-Red Bull energy drink DON'T go near Mountain Dew Amp. I tried that once. Tastes absolutely dreadful.

Subjective...I actually prefer Amp when I need that boost. But generally I prefer to not need it. There was a time when I depended on them to do my job (I worked nights and had to be fast.)

It's got taurine in it which last rumour I heard has somethign to do with bull cum blah.... either way i don't really care what's in the food and drink i eat as long as I can drink it but as i said, i've seriously got into this stuff pretty much for no other reason than to keep me functioning cos ive been writing essays through the night, studying for exams and partying pretty hard the past few weeks.

But I digress

They do an exhibition every year with people makign art pieces out of cans of red bull and last year or the year before they were up in glasgow and it was pretty cool. some of the stuff was amazing. someone had frozen cans of red bull then cut them open and just left the tubes of frozen juice in a freezer which was a pretty cool idea and soemone else made a massive peacock using the bottoms of cans as its spots. really cool and if it rolls by anyones vicinity you should get aloneg to see it.
