RSSRed bull and other energy drinks… they won’t give you wings, but they will give you a stroke!
Posted by shari | Under Chemicals, Junk foods, Making healthier choices, Water Saturday Sep 6, 2008Just one can of the popular stimulant energy drink Red Bull can increase your risk of heart attack or stroke. The effect was seen even in young people.
The caffeine-loaded beverage causes blood to become sticky, a pre-cursor to cardiovascular problems such as stroke.
One hour after drinking Red Bull, your blood system becomes abnormal, as might be expected from a patient with cardiovascular disease.
Red Bull is banned in Norway, Uruguay and Denmark because of health risks.
Spread the word, and do not let your teenagers or ANYONE you love get addicted to these drinks. They are every bit as addicting as anything else and they will start you down a one way road to ill health very fast!
