Hey people,
how many of you here have tried redbull or any other energy drinks for the purpose of being more energized? did they work? how were your experiences like? Do you they are bad for ones health?

As for me, everyday i think about buying redbull, but when i look at its rapping , it looked as if i'm going to be drinking something haraam. I dont know why i get this feeling.. umm.. while I am talkin about being haraam.. do they have anything haraam in them?

Gloomy


i used to jug down the red bull and relentless in my last year of uni, i needed ALOT of caffeine in me and it deffo helped to make me more alert, id feel hyper quite alot in the beginning too but slowly my body built a tolerance against it and it stopped having any effect on me, so i started takin pro-plus tablets lol i was a hard core druggy then *yeh ryt* but im sure if i had a can ryt now id be energized again (hyper in my case)

Predatory


I used to take Red Bull before a workout every single day for a year straight. Then, I realized I was so dependant on it I would get headaches if I didnt take it.

Energy pills, caffeine, energy drinks, etc are only good for an hour or two at the most. After that, your sugar comes crashing down and you end up feeling sleepy and lethargic.

I would rather have 1/2 cup of coffee then a can of Red Bull.

It is VERY bad for your health and not worth getting hooked on. Drink more water and eat healthier. For a quick fix, the occasional tea or coffee is okay. Sodas and "energy" drinks are bad news.

^ i dont think one drink will ever hurt you...i dont know if it makes u hooked though
i've tried the red bull , both regular and sugar free and honestlyu i dont feel a thing. then again i drink alot of soda so maybe my tolerance level for caffiene is pretty high and i dont feel it much.

just try it, its just a drink, if u dont like it, dont drink it again!

redbull-and other energy drinks- is not good for you as it makes your heart work faster. you shouldn't get used to it, but if you use it occasionaly than it doesn't do any harm to you. btw it's smells uuuh,

Stressed


One can for me does the trick ( makes me extremely hyper and wide awake). Unfortunately people start thinking i'm drunk after a can of red bull. I have a very low tolerance for caffeine. I have tea once or maybe twice a year lol
