The key ingredient in the Thai energy drink was taurine, an amino acid that was first discovered in bulls (this association is responsible for the Red Bull urban legend that the drink's active ingredient is bull urine or semen).

WOW! And who told you this? and you believed!

there is Taurine, but it is not urine, it comes from the testes

That would be taurine - an amino acid found in animals like bulls.

no, I don't think so.

no!

dammn .this was suposed to be a trade secret ,always somebody with a big mouth around

definitely just a rumor

Sure, ok

I'm pretty sure if that were true, no one would buy them and there would be tons of lawsuits already.

Oh, gross....even if it is what the others say.....I'll stick with a cup of coffee......man, manufacturers will feed us anything to make a buck!

NO, there is no bull urine in drinks.

no it from the testicles

No, thats just bull sh*t.

The Taurine in energy drinks is a synthetic form of the amino acid, so no. The FDA would never allow that!

Any other rumors you hear like that, please just keep them to yourself......that's how rumors are spread, ya know.
