Hi folks
I compared the ingredients in Red Bull bought from Asian shops (the stubby gold cans, made in Thailand) with the Red Bull sold in "mainstream" shops (thin blue can, made in Austria). They are almost identical, except that the Asian one has Choline (50mg) in it, and the other one doesn't.
What's choline good for? (yes, I've googled it, and even looked it up in my Merck index - what I mean, is what is it practically good for, from the muscle-building point of view), and why is it in one and not the other RB - is it an illegal additive in some jurisdictions? (if so, then it must be good!)
I use a can of RB (Asian) pre- and during workout - I think it helps a bit with energy, but not a huge effect.
Oh, and finally, the RB from the Asian shops is 1/2 or even 1/3 of the price of the other stuff.
