Red Bull...
I'm sure it's been out for awhile, but I just discovered a few days ago
that "Red Bull" is available in sugar free... Yay! At last, a diet drink that is not so sweet as to be undrinkable. A bit pricey at $1.50 per can, but it's a nice "pick me up" in the morning since I don't drink coffee. -- Om. "My mother never saw the irony in calling me a son-of-a-bitch." -Jack Nicholson |

Folks who avoid caffeine could have issues with it. What about the other ingredients? It has amino acids and such. |

There is also a brand called Monster Energy which has a low carb version as
well. I like the Monster stuff better, and it is also cheaper. Their website is http://www.monsterenergy.com. The low carb version says it has 3g of sugars, so keep that in mind. The 3g doesn't bother me, but it might for some people. Chris "OmManiPadmeOmelet" wrote in message ...

Cool! I'll look around for that, thanks!
I made a BIG mistake last night tho'. I worked the night shift and made the mistake of drinking 2 cans of Red Bull... I am also on Adderall (20 mg XR time release) and took it about 1 hour before going to work. Don't mix amphetamines and caffiene... Bad idea! :-P Red Bull does not say how much caffiene it has per can but I'm betting it's at least 200 mg.???

It contains only 80mg of caffeine, clearly labelled on the can. It isn't the caffeine that is the primary stimulant. It is the Taurine and the Glucuronolactone. BlackShadow Ah, thanks! I must not have looked at the right place on the can to get the caffiene content. All I know is that I had about 3 hours of real discomfort with a 130 heart rate. ;-) I drank a lot of water and just did not panic and it did finally go away...... Don't mix Red Bull with Adderall. That was really stupid! :-P Gods I hate night shifts! -- Om. "My mother never saw the irony in calling me a son-of-a-bitch." -Jack Nicholson |

I've tried several. I liked Monster LC except for that 3 grams of glucose.
:-) Good price at Trader Joe's though. I thought Red Bull was OK. And I recently saw it being sold by the case at Costco, but didn't check the price. There's also a couple from SoBe; Diet No fear and SF Adrenaline Rush. http://www.sobebev.com/about/press-release.asp?prid=125 But my favorite is Diet Rockstar. No sugar, and more B vitamins. Tastes better than Monster to me. http://www.rockstar69.com/new_html/diet.html It is expensive in 8-ounce cans, but I usually find it in 16, as shown at the site above, and recently found it in 24-ounce "Triple Strength" cans for $1.19 each. The 8-oz was $1.59. I don't recommend sipping this one while driving down the freeway. That big can looks like you're chugging a Foster's to certain persons wearing badges... :-) Steve "c" wrote in message ...
