    I have been told that the popular energy drink in the UK "Red Bull" is banned in the USA and France due to an ingredient in the drink that has been found to cause brain problems like haemorrhages and aneurysms and these findings came from examination of the drugs US soldiers were getting in Viet Nam to keep them alert. Can anybody confirm this or is it just another rumour?
