I know from myself, when I drink Red Bull, that my heart rate increases and so I keep it to a very low minimum when I *do* drink a Red Bull a few times a year perhaps. And then people mix it up with vodka too, my god, don't they want to live?! .-= Klaus @ TechPatio´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/techpatio/~3/2TYNG28jolA/nokia-7705-twist-squareish-swivel-mobile-phone" rel="nofollow">Nokia 7705 Twist: Square’ish Swivel Mobile Phone?</a> =-.

Besides, Energy Drinks can have questionable side effects on someone's heart depending on dosage, they could be harming their children biologically.

A small cup of Coca-Cola is one thing, but giving your ten year old energy drinks isn't much different from giving them marijuana to smoke, legality aside.
