There is Cocaine in Redbull?

Does Redbull give you wings? There may be a reason. Red Bull has been banned in six states in Germany after a test revealed that the energy drink contained trace amounts of cocaine. The bans of selling Red Bull Cola by retailers in six German states started Friday after in a sample test 0,4 micrograms of cocaine per liter was found.

The cocaine levels are not high enough to constitute a health threat, said officials with Germany's Federal Institute for Risk Assessment on Monday. They plan to issue a complete report Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Red Bull, of Santa Monica, Calif., maintains that the product in question, Red Bull Cola, is "harmless and marketable in both the U.S. and Europe." Red Bull's notes that their products contain analogous coca leaf extracts as a flavoring agent in the making of its cola, but insists that the illegal cocaine alkaloid is removed by law before being shipped outside the Andean region of South America. They claim that their own tests show no traces of actual cocaine.
