Abstract in brief

  • The study found that drinking Red Bull caused an increase in blood pressure, heart rate, and cardiac output, but did not significantly affect overall vascular resistance or endothelial function.
  • Red Bull also raised cerebrovascular resistance and breathing rate, while decreasing cerebral blood flow velocity and carbon dioxide levels in the brain.
  • Overall, the results suggest that Red Bull has a negative effect on cardiovascular health, particularly by increasing blood pressure and myocardial workload, as well as reducing blood flow in the brain.]

@kevinnbass Yep, good supplement for increasing blood pressure. "Red Bull consumption led to increases in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure (p < 0.005)" - https://t.co/cBmFY0sVss
