In the industry the other ingredients are called “pixie dust”.

The heavy lifting is done by the caffeine.

And anyone without a shockingly low caffeine tolerance also knows that one of the main ingredients in energy drinks is marketing.

Red Bull does nothing to most people that a cup of black coffee wouldn’t do. But the placebo effect is a helluva drug.

Are you sure about that? I drink coffee all day long and in the evenings too. Doesn't affect me much. But some of the energy drinks gets me completely hyper so that I can't sleep.
