I used to drink it a lot, one stage a good few cans a day but I felt it just made me tired after about 20-30min. Not the best when you have to take it before the gym otherwise feel like you can't left anything!

Now I just have old fashioned water but also treat myself with a mocha now and then.

I love the stuff. I drink it because I like the taste rather than for an energy boost but I prefer it with a vodka on a Saturday night! Does give me serious bad stomach the next day though :(

Haha, was going to say Jagerbombs seriously upset my stomach the next day! I've now switch to Pimms and lemonade B) less acid in lemonade as well and a very nice summer drink.

I am exactly the same mate,
one first thing in the morning and one after work in the evening but i had four yesterday lol,
apparently their is a chemical in the red bull which makes us feel good and perks us up a bit, and the lack of red bull in the system is causing the bad temper in us, according to fran the research and development labratory technition at the parmaceutical company i work for lol

I don't drink energy drinks....Am i boring? Ha. They just rot my teeth and the feel of it on my teeth is even more reason i stay away. When i do big drives like midlands to dover to germany then il buy the big cans and knock few back but thats rare. Really bad for you I'm sure
