Which energy drinks contain ephedra?
No, that would be illegal. However all energy drinks contain a ridiculously high dose of caffeine as their main active ingredient. Caffeine is unregulated.
Does energy drinks show up as a positive drug test?
Energy drinks containing ephedra may make you test positive for stimulants as ephedra is a precursor to methamphetamine. In the United States, ephedra is illegal in over-the-coutner energy drinks and other products.
Legally available energy drinks are a mixture of sugars, B-vitamins, amino acids, and caffiene. With the exception of the caffiene, all these supplements are things your body normally needs, but not in the high doses provided in the beverage. They may make you test positive for internal metabolic disorders, but not illegal drugs.
Kind of. It's a an aminoethanesulfonic acid found in bile in the lower intestine and also in animal tissue. It can be found in lots of animals, including humans. However, the taurine used in energy drinks is a synthetic.
I don't think so. I looked up the meaning of the word "taurine" and it said "of or like a bull; bullish." I think the drink Red Bull (an energy drink) contain taurine. I doubt if they would put bulls urine in a drink, and if they did there would surely be a large number of complaints to the health and safety department.
ajh1357@AOL.com answer: actually taurine derives from the word Taurus which means bull and the reason they called it that is because scientists found it in bull bile and extracted the ingredient and they found that it has many health uses such as weight loss and to help fight fatigue and that's why its found in most all energy drinks such as "Redbull" and "monster".

It is a possibile especially the sugar-free. I had been drinking 3-5 sugar-free and regular energy drinks per day and was getting up at night to urinate too often. Then I thought I had a uti, went to doctor had a UA no infection but blood in urine for no apparent reason. So I quit drinking the drinks for a few days, the blood started decreasing. today I drank 1 sugar-free and noticed more blood in urine. Soooooo I am going to quit them and find out, but I do believe energy drinks can cause urine in the blood.... I do love to drink them though!

They are good, when used responsibly, but some people drastically overdo it. People get fatigued, naturally, and lots of people depend on caffeine in order to invigorate themselves. A cup of coffee or an energy drink is great for that! However, energy drinks have become slightly problematic recently. Lots of kids have been drinking too many, and there have been emergency room reports of kids, such as nine and ten year olds, suffering from myocardial infarctions and ischemic strokes! In answer to your question, energy drinks are good, when used in moderation.
Why do energy drinks contain Bull Semen?
They do not. This is a myth that has been dispelled many, many times by scientific fact and yet people still listen to the lies that media spills about what they think is in energy drinks.
There are a couple of chemicals - primarily Taurine - that is found in both energy drinks and bull semen.
But so is WATER, which isn't particularly newsworthy.
All Taurine commercially used is synthetic. It comes out of a factory, not a bull.
What do high energy drinks consist of?
Energy drinks can be packed with sugar and high in artificial caffeine. The energy drink boosts your energy and then you crash.

This is the safer and more natural route to go and did I mention- it tastes great. Check it out @ www.onlyatgbg.com/adened
