Some people have died after the consumption of Red Bull (but who knows what else they may have taken that may have contributed to that death).

Red Bull state on their product they don't reccomend more than 2 or 3 a day ..... ask them why.

Red Bull stipulate you should increase your intake of water consumption when you drink Red Bull ..... why?

Some interesting facts:

Red Bull originated in Thaliand .... not the US. (The original Red Bull drink was developed in 1962 by Chaleo Yoovidhya, a Thai businessman)

It contains, per 250 ml (8.3 U.S. fl. oz.) serving, about 27 g of sugar (glucose, sucrose), 1000 mg of taurine, 600 mg of glucuronolactone, B-complex vitamins and 80 mg of caffeine.

The caffeine in one serving of Red Bull is less than that found in an average cup of coffee.

Sale of Red Bull as a normal soft drink is prohibited in Denmark, Norway, France, Uruguay and Iceland.

The consumption of Red Bull is not recommended for children, pregnant or breast-feeding women.

People who consume the beverage in excess (more than 2-5 250 mL tins in a 24-hour period) have been known to express discomfort, such as nausea, diarrhea, stomach pains, gas, light green urine color, sleeplessness and/or fatigue.

British supermarket chain Morrisons refuses to sell Red Bull to customers under the age of 16.

The director of biomaterials research at the University of Maryland Dental School in Baltimore found the most wear to tooth enamel occurred, in descending order, from exposure to lemonade, energy drinks (especially those with citric acid such as Red Bull), sports drinks, fitness water, iced tea and cola.

Mixing Alcohol with Red Bull can lead to abnormal heart rhythms.

Just remember ..... everything in moderation.

The ingredients in Red Bull is Water, sucrose, glucose, acidifier sodium citrates, carbon dioxide, taurine (0.4%), glucuronolactone (0.24%), caffeine (0.03%), inositol, vitamins (niacin, pantothenic acid, B6, B12), flavourings, and colours (caramel, riboflavin).

When I drink too much caffeine my legs go into spasms. It constricts your blood vessels, along with sleepness nights and heart palpitations

If you drink 11 red bulls at once you might throw up on number 7. if you dont throw up it will more than likely give you a real bad stomach ache and your piss might be a new color.

I would think it would depend on the person. Some people would feel negative effective even after 1 or 2 red bulls. And some would be able to go as high as 11. Certainly the more you take, the higher the risk.

Its like asking how many shots of espresso is dangerous?

yes i think it just might kill you...they say redbull speeds up your heart so if you drank so much your heart might just go really really crazy.

Do mean continuously or one every few hours?

I did a project on energy drinks and it would be extremely stupid to drink 11 red bulls or any energy drink for the matter. People have died from drinking 2 red bull and then running, so I'm pretty sure it would do major damage to your body if not kill you.

tht is a load of rubbish

Here is a great website that will tell you based on your weight how much of what type of caffeine (drink/food) will kill you...

ps. most likely you will live from 11 redbulls.. but I'm sure you'd be wired.
