My husband used to drink 2 or 3 Red Bulls a day and developed irregular racing heart beats and an eye twitch. True, Gatorade is not an energy drink but more of an electrolyte drink.

As for vegetarian diets, they put far less strain on the heart and do wonders if you have high triglycerides (fat in the blood) and cholesterol. Ask any Dr... they will tell you red meat twice a week and lean proteins the rest with fish being the most recommended. Protein can come from lentils, soy, and a great deal from sprouts with no saturated fats at all.

Mis-cat, what you are referencing are articles related to study groups with certain disorders and deficiencies and doesnt really have any grounds with the general population.
