"The active ingredient in Red Bull is caffeine." No - it's Taurene (caffeine as well of course) Taurene is a whole different game. Taurene will mess you up long term far more than just caffeine. Taurene has less worse short term effects ... and there doesn't seem to be consensus on long term, but I personally had a serious bout with it messing up my endrocrine. 1 small red bull now and again is enough. Soldiers need to get more sleep, for god's sakes there's guns and lives on the line. Yes, sleep dep training is important, but with live munitions ... my god man.
