Red Bull

As you all are aware, red bull is an energy drink that needs no further introduction to. Some might just heard of it while some are addicts. I am an addict. My consumption is mostly for the purpose of staying up all night finish studying and rarely due to my fear of sleeping.

Sometimes my consumption exceeds advised limits and this is not because I don't know the side effects of red bull, this because I chose to do so.

As an addict, I'd like to make sure I spread my knowledge about these products and let you decide if starting this habit is worth it.

7) It can also cause extreme mood swings


Here is why pregnant women are advised against consumption -

Another main side effect of red bull is that it can lead to miscarriage among pregnant women. Hence, it should be completely avoided by women who are pregnant or are planning to conceive.

Here is why children below the age of 16 are advised against consumption -

The presence of large amounts of caffeine and sugar is not good for small kids. It can even hamper their growth and cause extensive damages to the delicate hormones and tissues inside their bodies. Hence, one must completely avoid giving red bull to small kids.


With it all this knowledge, it is just our arrogance that motivates consumption. I must admit I am arrogant and I am not proud of it.

Make wise choices !
Until next time
