Drink five or six cans? Your heart rate might spike, you could get nauseous, and you’ll probably experience what I call “designer anxiety.” That’s where you’re worried about the future but too jittery to do anything productive about it. Not fun.
In rare cases, too much caffeine can cause heart palpitations, panic attacks, or even a trip to the ER. No one wants their obituary to mention “energy drink enthusiasm.” So, keep it sensible, pal.
A better way to get your buzz
I’m not here to tell you to never drink Red Bull. That would be hypocritical and mean. But maybe mix it up? Try one can in the morning with a big glass of water. Then, switch to tea, coffee, or just sleep like a normal human. You’ll be shocked at how much energy you have when you aren’t running on artificially flavored panic.
Also, pro tip: never drink Red Bull on an empty stomach. It’s like lighting a fire in a dry forest. You’ll burn bright and fast, then be left with nothing but ashes and regret.
