so i was at the gas station and i see this energy drink so i decided to try it.
its only 8oz but its 2 servings, i didnt read the warning before i drank it which was a horrible idea. About 20 min after chugging this thing that tasted like cough syrup i started to feel the effects and it just went down hill from there. I started sweating profusely even though i was freezing, mmy mouth started to water and i got severly light headed. I decided to go from work and when i got there i went and puked. I was shaking really bad so i layed down. My chest started to tighten and i could hardly breathe, my heart was beating fast and skipping beats on occassion. My fingers started to tingle and my lips went numbe, i seriously almost had a stroke. After these effects died down about 2 hours later i felt like i had a horrible hangover all day, my clothes were soaked in sweat and i was still shivering. This is the worst experience ive ever had.
here is the warning:
"RECOMMENDED USE: Shake well prior to use. Always begin use with one-half can (4oz.) of REDLINE daily to assess tolerance. Never exceed more than one can daily. Do not consume REDLINE on an empty stomach. Consuming REDLINE on an empty stomach may cause nausea.

and these are the effects of Yohimbine, one of the main ingredients
If you experience any of the following serious side effects, stop taking yohimbine and seek emergency medical attention:
* an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of your throat; swelling of your lips, tongue, or face; or hives);
* a very irregular or fast heartbeat; or
* confusion or unusual behavior.
Other, less serious side effects are more likely to occur. Continue to take yohimbine and talk to your doctor if you experience
* dizziness;
* anxiety, irritability, or nervousness;
* tremor (shaking);
* headache; or
* skin flushing.
i seriously dont know how this crap is legal
