Overuse can lead to chronic nervousness, "jittery" extremities, increased heart rate, and insomnia. Everyday use of Red Bull, coffee, or other energy drinks can also lead to caffeine addiction, which has an extremely unpleasant withdrawal accompanied with headaches, irritability and decreased physical performance.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_BullIn 2001, the drink was investigated by the Swedish National Food Administration after being linked to the deaths of three consumers [10]. It has been subject to a number of other health concerns regarding glucuronolactone, a precursor of taurine. Glucuronolactone is a naturally occurring chemical compound produced by the metabolism of glucose in the human liver. It has received some notoriety due to urban legends that it was a Vietnam War-era drug manufactured by the American government. The rumor goes on to say that it was banned due to several brain tumor-related deaths. The rumor has since been proven false, as neither the cited British Medical Journal article nor the "banning of its consumption" ever occurred. Due to the link with taurine, only energy drinks without taurine are sold in France, but infant formula sold there (and worldwide) is commonly supplemented with taurine. Furthermore, no warnings appear on the Food and Drug Administration website regarding its potential to cause brain tumors or other maladies[11]
Since May 20th 2008 an alternative form of Red Bull containing arginine to replace taurine has been available in France.[12] Only days later, France removed the ban and Red Bull is now available in its original formula, including taurine [13].
A common concern regarding the beverage is its supposedly high caffeine level. Proponents of the beverage counter critics by stating that a serving has roughly the same amount of caffeine as that found in a cup of coffee. [14]
Studies have proven that there is a positive link between drinking Red Bull and reducing levels of cortisol, but it may also lead to a high blood-pressure problem if drunk to excess.[citation needed]
Results of a small study suggested to avoid the drink, as it may lead to high blood pressure or heart disease. [15] Swedish National Food Administration have warned that Red Bull should not be consumed combined with alcohol or after strenuous exercise.[16]
A Red Bull spokesperson recommended the consumption of "no more than one to two cans" to achieve the drink's optimum effect. [17] There are examples of people suffering heart disturbances after drinking eight cans of Red Bull.[18][19].
მოკლედ, ზოგიერთ ქვეყანაში საერთოდ აკრძალულია გაყიდვა. აქვს საკმაოდ სერიოზული გვერდითი ეფექტები, იწვევს ნერვულ აშლილობას, შფოთვას, ტაქიკარდიას, უძილობას. ყოველდღიური მოხმარება - კოფეინდამოკიდებულებას, თავის ტკივილს, გაღიზიანებადობას, ფიზიკური აქტიივობის დაქვეითებას.
განსაკუთრებით არასასურველია მიღება ალკოჰოლთან ერთად , ან ძლიერი ფიზიკური დატვირთვის შემდეგ.

Red Bull, მავნებელია თუ არა?
