    When you come down off the caffeine high you'll know.

    I would have to say no, it is not healthy. Isn't it just packed with caffiene to get you wired?

    Yup, I'm sure I suffered a mild heart attack whilst dancing on a night out pumped up on vodka and redbulls...

    It was scary!

    The challenge there is to decide which tastes more like cough syrup.



    Red Bull is disgusting stuff, the taste, the smell, what it must do to your insides... that hyper caffeine shot just eating away at your stomach wall.

    I'd rather drink brake fluid.

    Which, not suprisingly, looks quite similar.

    Amp is better. Both are just all hype. It's all in your head, guys.

    gatorade/poweraid is ok, just not as a staple. Make water your main replenisher but the extra ingreients in gatorade can help replace other stuff.

    I drink maybe 2-3 red bulls a week but only when I need to put in a 12 hour day.

    I can definitely say I can run longer (not faster) with redbull. After one can (or two) I just drink water during a football match. Its tried and tested lads, just down some. It hasnt done me any harm

    Personally I like Monster and Rock Star. I think I've tried just about every one out there by now. We have this superMobil type of place by my band's practice space that in addition to selling every possible cell phone accessory known to man, also sells every energy drink known to man. It's a wild place.

    There you go. Monster is so much better than Red Bull - and it's in 24 oz. cans.

    And don't forget Crunk.

    Dont worry, red bull is just a bunch of mixed stimulants -- some natural asian such as am huang, ginseng and gingko biloba -- some not such natural as taurine, glucuronolactone or caffeine. Not quite as intense as an herbal X pill, but powerful enough to give you a nice kick in the heart. I would only recommend using it when you're going to be straining yourself mentally or physically -- sitting around playing video games and drinking redbulls will kill your heart, give a possibility of diabetes, and with it's price -- drain your wallet.

    good stuff. I'm a fan of the drink. Not the price.
