Red Bull Gives You Sticky Blood
There’s some new research coming out of Australia concerning Red Bull.
According to the Times Online, a study involving 30 university students showed that one hour after they consumed one can of Red Bull sugar-free, they had the cardiovascular profile of someone with heart disease. They believe that a chemical in the sugar-free Red Bull causes the blood to become sticky which could cause blood clots.
Red Bull has denied this study stating that none of their research indicated any potential problems with the beverage. They said that it was in 143 countries and has never been banned where it was introduced.
The Australian researchers warn people with heart problems to stay away from the sugar-free Red Bull, claiming that it could make the condition worse. No problems were linked to the regular Red Bull, so my advice would be to drink that one instead.
This certainly raises questions concerning the product’s safety, but I think there needs to be further studies performed to confirm the results that Adelaide University discovered.

Per a Dr. at the Mayo Clinic. Avoid any man made sweeteners. They are all chemicals that your body does not know how to process. Just use regular sugar, preferably RAW sugar. You body can easliy process this becasue it is natural. Any times something says “no sugar”.. rad the fine print and stay away from the chemicals.

joe is completely right!!! i was also told that artificial sweeteners are far worse for you than raw sugar. you do the research.
Aspartame (NutraSweet) is the worst. One can of diet soda (any variety) with that stuff in it and I start to break out worse than a 15 year old.
what chemical is it that causes the thickening and that stuff?
Interesting, would it be possible to get the source?
My source was linked in the post.
