One of caffeine’s primary actions in the human body is its stimulating effect on cognitive functions.
Each 8.4 fl oz can of Red Bull Red Edition Sugarfree contains 80 mg of caffeine. Caffeine helps to improve concentration and increase alertness.
Whether the caffeine is naturally derived or synthetic, both forms are identical in structure and effect.
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.
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 Red Edition Sugarfree contains water-soluble vitamins. Water-soluble vitamins do not get stored as much as fat-soluble vitamins in the body. Instead, they circulate in the blood, and whatever the body does not use is excreted. The Red Bull Red Edition Sugarfree 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 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 and vitamin B6 contribute to the normal function of the nervous system while vitamin B12 contributes to normal neurological functions.
Sucralose and acesulfame K are among the most-tested and most-used sugar substitutes worldwide.
Acesulfame potassium is a non-caloric sweetener. It is used worldwide in over a thousand different products including foods and drinks like chewing gums, dairy products, baked goods, etc..
Sucralose is a non-caloric sweetener made from sugar, which tastes like sugar. Sucralose is produced synthetically. Sucralose is used in a wide variety of products, including beverages, baked goods, desserts, dairy products, canned fruits and syrups.
Acesulfame potassium and sucralose are among the most tested and most-used sugar substitutes worldwide. Both have an excellent safety profile. Numerous scientific studies demonstrate that these substances are safe for use as sweetening ingredients. The safety of these sweeteners has been evaluated by regulatory bodies all over the world (e.g. FDA in the US). Authorities rely on the safety evaluations of independent scientific advisory bodies such as the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA).
Water is a main ingredient of Red Bull. Dedication to its quality contributes to the iconic taste in every sip.
