      Hiya – Red Bull contains a lot of caffeine and other stimulants – these can increase blood pressure which in turn can increases the chance of someone suffering heart attacks and strokes. So too much certainly is bad for you and its why they are not recommended for children

      Hi nienie13,

      Apart from the caffeine there’s all that sugar, which confuses the insulin levels in your body and isn’t good for your teeth either…
