Title: New product, and its amazing!
Post by Misconduct on May 20th, 2010 at 1:59pm
I know some drink caffine products like redbull, however I am unable to drink these due to sodium so I found a much better product called RedLine Extreme. Website is START PRINTPAGEMultimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to Login or RegisterEND PRINTPAGE

The drink tastes quite good, and has 316mg of caffine for a full 8oz bottle, so you really only need 4oz for relief from the headaches. Just thought what everyones reaction was that has tried this, so far I have been quite impressed.

Four bottles for thirteen bucks seems extreme.

Its extreme in price, however caffeine is my preventer to stop the clustered headaches, so for me a large dosage is my way to stop Clusters even while they are going on. Generally I drink 4oz if I have shadow pains, and 8oz if its a full blown attack.

List of ingredients are:
highly Purified Water
citric Acid
natural and artifical flavor
natural red color
sodium benzoate
Sucralean
Brand Sucralose
Potassium sorbate
calcium Disodium EDTA

0 Calories in 1/2 bottle
total carbs 0
sugar 0

and it does taste GREAT, I would recommend if caffeine is your preventer, check out a local smoothie king and at least try one bottle, yeah its expensive at $3.60 for a full bottle, but I can say it does work 100% within 5 minutes.

Hmmm...caffeine is really important for a lot of us. So is taurine.

I don't see either one listed.

And so sorry, but the Sucralose eliminates me as one of your potential customers. I don't touch the stuff.

I'm a big user of energy drinks my self usually red bull .

Actually, it has about 250 mg of caffiene per bottle/8 oz. serving (no taurine though).  Red Bull has 66.7 mg per 8 oz. serving.

Go down and click on the area where it says how much caffeine and it brings up a chart showing different drinks and how much caffeine each packs.

I can't find anything that says Redline Xtreme has any taurine.

Hmmm...  I suspect the citric acid is also one of the key therapeutic agents in this energy drink responsible for its effectiveness.  The citric acid in lemon juice or lemonade will lower arterial pH and that will stimulate vasoconstriction just as much as caffeine. Both take about the same time to get out of the GI tract to do their magic.

I might add, homemade lemonade is a lot more cost effective.  On top of that, oxygen therapy runs $1.25 to $1.50 prior to insurance.  With insurance, I'm paying 20 to 25 cents per abort.

Take care,

V/R, Batch
