One of caffeine’s primary actions in the human body is its stimulating effect on cognitive functions.
Each 250 ml can of Red Bull Green Edition contains 80 mg of caffeine. Caffeine helps to improve concentration and increase alertness.
The 80 mg of caffeine contained in one 250 ml can of Red Bull Green Edition is about the same amount as in a cup of coffee.

Taurine is an amino acid, naturally occurring in the human body and present in the daily diet.
It is involved in a wide range of biological processes including osmoregulation, which is the regulation of the body’s cellular water and electrolytic balance.
Taurine is one of the most abundant amino acids in the brain, heart and muscles.
The human body (70 kg) naturally contains 70 times more taurine than one 250 ml can of Red Bull.
Vitamins are essential micronutrients that are required for maintaining normal body functions.
There are two types of vitamins: fat soluble and water soluble. The Red Bull Green Edition contains water-soluble vitamins. Water-soluble vitamins do not get stored in the body as much as fat-soluble vitamins. Instead, they circulate through the blood, and whatever the body does not use is released. Red Bull contains the water-soluble B-group vitamins niacin (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), vitamin B6 and vitamin B12.
These B-group vitamins (niacin, pantothenic acid, B6, B12) contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism, such as the build-up and break-down of carbohydrates and proteins, and contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Additionally, pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) contributes to normal mental performance.
Moreover, B-group vitamins play a central role in the brain. Niacin, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 contribute to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
The Red Bull Green Edition is made with sugar sourced from sugar beets. Sugars are a fast-absorbing form of carbohydrate involved in a wide range of biological processes and an energy source for the brain and muscles.
One 250 ml can of The Red Bull Green Edition contains 27 g of sugars.
There is also Red Bull without sugars: Red Bull Sugarfree and Red Bull Zero.
The amount of sugars in The Red Bull Green Edition is comparable to the sugar level in an equivalent volume of ordinary apple or orange juice.
