Red Bull Can Spike Illnesses, Not Energy

With luxurious lifestyles and comfortable homes, people tend to get fatigued easily. To avoid crashing in midday, a lot of people are drinking energy drinks such as Red Bull. Some energy drinks are more popular than bottled water too.

However, that is bad news---for Red Bull can spike the risk of stroke and heart attack, according to simpleorganiclife.

A Red Bull makes your body similar to that of a patient suffering from cardiovascular disease. The energy drink is like coffee or soda, however, as no one can make out what ingredients go into make the Red Bull energy drink.

One part of Red Bull is clear---it's full of aspartame, which has been proved to be "neurotoxic, allergenic, and carcinogenic". Hence, when you combine it with other ingredients, you have concocted a "vicious cycle of energy drink consumption that can be deadly."

"No less than 3.5 billion cans of Red Bull were sold last year in 143 countries. Yet, questions regarding the safety of Red Bull, as well as other energy drinks, keep cropping up at regular intervals when yet another overzealous energy-addict keels over," says Dr. Mercola.

So whether you are pregnant or whether you are not, you can keep the pounds off with regular exercise, good foods, greater omega-3 fats and remove grains and sugars from your diet.

Patients suffering from anxiety, high blood pressure, stress, caffeine sensitivity, blood clotting disorders, fatigue or other cardiovascular illnesses should not consume Red Bull.

A World Health Organisation report pointed out: "The full impact of the rise in popularity of energy drinks has not yet been quantified, but the aggressive marketing of energy drinks targeted at young people, combined with limited and varied regulation have created an environment where energy drinks could pose a significant threat to public health."
