Germany will ban the sale of it, following other countries as Denmark, Norway and Uruguay, etc.

Any official reference?
No addiction so far, so it may not be true.

Redbull and Vodka. What a combination! I'm not a fan though.

Killjoys. The amount found in it isn't enough to do anything anyway. Couldn;t even get a nat high!

biggest B/S i ever heard. First somebody posted that Red bull drink made of bulls urine extract, now its cocaine ... People... its taurine - caffeine extract and loads of sugar... to keep u up as long as possible. Not a black magic.

This is utter bullshit.

There are more than 140 different substances in a Red Bull drinks.

Slowly they are trying to find out whether RedBull is damaging in large amounts to humans, or not.

You will hear more in the future. In the mean time, be smart and don't drink it in excessive amounts.

Limit yourself

Well I don't drink it. I stay with ancestor drinks....water, natural juices, milk, and alcohol. On occasion I may have a coke, root beer, cream soda, or ginger beer but only once a year for each.

I love my ancestor diet.

Gulf countries get into high alert. After UAE now Qatar announce to tests on energy drink Red Bull. http://www.arabianbusiness.com/557736-q ... aine-tests

Im drinking one right now hehehe

Never had one and don't intend to.

I lost a friend due to overdrinking of red bull, probably 3-4 day. One day he suddenly collapsed and was brought to the hospital and the diagnosis was mild stroke. He stopped drinking it but the damage was done. One day; while driving home he suffered a stroke and had an awful crash. The autopsy reported that he died before the crashed.

redbull contains caffeine, that's probably the reason, not the redbull itself (as opposed to other brands). overdrinking is never good. moreover with bad body shape (overweight).

Redbull is so yesterday... I'm hooked on Pokari Sweat.

Water's the best.

Young people are shy to say it because it sounds old fashioned.

Never was much of a fan of Redbull.

Used to drink of alot of Pocari in school though!

water is for regular drink. pocari (or some other isotonic drinks) is considered better consumed after exercising as it contains some extras (minerals/ions) required for body to re-hydrate faster.
