I'm drinking Red Bull

It gives the Red Bull company wings in that their stock soars because people actually buy that overpriced crap.
 
I tried it once as a free sample. Why would anyone purposely drink something that tastes like cough medicine? Even if it does give you energy, it isn't worth the awful taste.
 
i love redbull by itself. i like it a lot better with vodka.

edit: i drank 8 red bulls over 12 hours once at the end of a 4 day period through which i stayed away for finals once.

Agreed. At first it seems ok, but it has the aftertaste from Hell.
 
The stuff can kill ya if you drink it often enough. There's at least 10x more caffeine per can than 2 strong cups of coffee. Not only that but it's got high levels of sodium. My sister's roommate is sponsored by Redbull and she tells me not to drink more than a can a day unless I want a heart attack. I can totally feel that stuff messing with my heartrate.

Yea hence my reply : )

I guess a one time binge ain't gonna kill ya but do that a few days in a row and I'm sure you'll get plenty sick.
 
sometimes i can tell it's affecting my heartrate, but not always

as for sodium it's not high, only 200mg (8%DV) per can
 
Yep 8%

Now drink 5 and that's 40%.

Add other small eating habits and things will quickly add up.

Finally add your meals.

Also do you think that the US's daily values is considered healthy? (by comparing with the rest of the world's standards anyway)
 
Try eating an apple. They taste better, and supposedly they wake you up at least as well as a cup of coffee... who knew?

I'm honestly not worred about it. I don't eat that much. I did have a double double for lunch though, lol. No breakfast.

I'm 5'8" and weigh like 130lbs I'm haning in there and will enjoy energy drinks as often as I see fit.
