I'd just like to add that Taurine is a naturally occurring substance, your body produces it...most taurine you see is synthetic, A main source for naturally occurring Taurine would be Bull Testicles... Ever wonder why they call it RedBull?

They only use artificial Taurine. Once taurine was able to be made artificialy, there is no need for extracting it from bull testicles.


And MAJOR LOL for Steven's energy drink flavor..... what is 'Asian Experience' supposed to taste like anyway? That doesn't sound like a flavor at all....

It simply tastes of oriental people. I hear they extracted the flavour from the dismembered bodies of all the people seagal has brutaly annihilated in his action movies.

heres a Natural energy drink from MonAvie...not as bad as normal energy drinks
...but i cant see it doing much good to your internals non the less...heres a little vid for an online contest on youtube, check it out if u can!

In what way is that an energy drink? and i'm talking about the generally accepted definition of the phrase. It looks like it's just extortionately priced fruit juice being used to try and con the masses.

well you're the one that said it!? why did you call it an energy drink if you don't think it's an energy drink? and more to the point, why are you posting it here of all places?

i posted the video in what i thought was the "energy drinks" forum, i failed to see that it was the "who else thinks energy drink should come with a health warning". This is my first time posting in forums so im new at it and made a mistake. The reason for posting the video: Movavie is having an online contest on youtube and the winner is determined by number of views, i wanted to post the video in "energy drinks" to hopfully get the support of the biking community to watch the video, that is all.
