   shouldn’t be. it is no different than any other energy drinks. there aren’t any illegal substances in it.

   There’s nothing in Red Bull that is of illegal use for sports. Good luck and hope the wings come in handy for you. LOL!

   Not yet, as far as I know. I used to drink Pepsi a half hour before race time. Kind of gave me a boost.

   No, USADA (U.S. Anti Doping Agency) controls the drug testing in the United States & Red Bull is not on the list. Some athletes swear by it, but the sugar can cause cramping.
