Mobile phone = cancer
Microwave = cancer
Computer = cancer
Paint = cancer
Car = cancer
Energy drinks = cancer
Nuclear Powerplant = cancer
etc. = cancer

I guess we all should be dead as a dodo by now. Fortunately for most of us, we don't live long enough to die from the hazardous effects of all this.

There is however a substance in Red Bull that's a certain kind of nicotine acid... that's most definitely not very healthy for anyone,

Cheers

Yeah :-D but if the damaging effect of energy drinks would be abnormal high i would think of sleeping a little more instead of drinking red bull :-P

everything has its dangers. likely to kill you? no.... could kill you? yes. Hell id be more afraid of going to a gas station watching people walk out with lit cigarettes they just bought.

I drink lots of energy stuff myself and I feel quite alive wink

But why you pay for that overpriced redbull, try other drinks, most of them taste exactly like it (or even better) and cost like 80 cents!

If I get cancer from drinking energy drinks and sitting at computer, I'm sure to file bug report to the God.

I don't think ED's give cancer. Cancer comes from things that kill you and is a thing that speeds the process up a bit.

You should worry more about your toothpaste and even shampoo. In most products you'll find Sodium Laureth Sulfate / Sodium Lauryl Sulfate which is responsible for the foaming and is probably causing cancer (you'll find some yes and no discussions about this - it's safe to say that it's not healthy though). No one seems to care though to put stuff that is toxic and mostly used for the foam in some heavy duty cleaners in their mouth and literally eating it...

A study analysing cancer risk and toothpaste etc. usage probably would be extremely interesting...

Enjoy your meal

Life is carcinogenic. smile

Substituting sleep with energy drinks certainly is unhealthy though. If you canīt do without energy drinks then your life is a bit out of balance in my opinion.

actually, in almost everything you do there is the risk of getting cancer, even just being alive. A DNA "offspring" can be caused by random events, maybe even some special spectrum solar ray that made it through the earth's atmosphere, hit your arm and causes cancer.

Is it possible to get cancer from eating fried food and energy drinks? Yes.
Is it probably or likely? No.

Most times it's just some scientist who wants to get some attention by publishing studies that "Daily-use Object X" can cause cancer "Type Y" because of miniminiminiminiscule traces of substance Z.
