When we feel tired and low on energy, our first reaction is often to reach for a cup of coffee. Energy drinks are another popular “solution.” One of the most famous is Red Bull, which is even marketed as a drink that “gives us wings.” Sponsoring many extreme sports events, Red Bull’s motto is to support daring individuals and innovative ideas. They don’t mention the potential health risks of their special drink.
The popular energy drink Red Bull has been linked to cardiovascular problems, including stroke and heart attack. Red Bull has been banned in Norway, Denmark and Uruguay, and its sale was banned in France from 1996 to 2008.
