This is something I have been wondering for a while.
I have read with interest all the columns about whether or not it actually does anything, but what I’m more concerned with is if Red Bull will make someone fail a drug test. I know that some other energy supplements WILL cause you to fail.(mostly the little pills that you can buy in a gas station) I am particularally interested in whether or not the drink would make competitive athletes fail a test, since I assume they are held to a different standard.
The only thing I can come up with is that they probably would fail due to the caffeine if they just chugged one right before an event. But what if they had a few Red Bulls and Vodka a couple of days before?
A list of ingredients:
Carbonated Water, Sucrose, Glucose, Sodium Citrate, Taurine, Glucuronolactone, Caffeine, Inositol, Niacin, D-Pantothenol, Pyroxidine HCL, Vitamin B-12, Artificial Flavors and Colors
