Red Bull and Health
Several rumors have spread regarding the possible negative health effects of Red Bull. Though the drink is banned in Norway, Denmark and several other countries, rumors that the beverage can cause growth of brain tumors has been revealed to be unfounded.Despite no direct evidence of the harmful effects of taurine or caffeine in small doses, Red Bull recommends not consuming more than two cans in a single sitting. It is also advised not to consume Red Bull mixed with alcohol, as the flavor can dilute the taste of vodka and other spirits and lead to an unsafe level of alcohol consumption.
