That's synthetic bile nowadays ... apparently the real stuff is just too expensive.

So basically Red Bull has some of the right (or maybe right) ingredients but in such small amounts that the only one that works is caffeine? No big surprise there. There are two substances that were used as energy supplements, one was ephedrine listed under pseudonyms and the other is caffiene. Sine the big E is banned now that only leaves coffee. Skip the high price tag and get a cup of Joe as Circle K. It's cheaper that way.

I've never tried the stuff but I'll stick with the pop.

I just started drinking Red Bull during work...two cans at 10:30 am seems to do the trick. And it can't be just the caffeine because I used to drink a tone of Coke during the day.
Whatever it is, it does give you wings. And possibly a gigantic rise in blood pressure as well.
