Redbull (1 piece)

Choose a sugar-free Red Bull or avoid energy drinks with added sugar; check the label because caffeine can still affect glucose for some people.

Avoid drinking Red Bull on an empty stomach; have it with a balanced meal or snack containing protein, fiber, and healthy fat.

If you want a snack alongside it, choose options such as plain Greek yogurt, eggs, nuts, cheese, hummus with non-starchy vegetables, or avocado.

Drink it slowly rather than all at once, and avoid combining it with other sweet drinks, alcohol, or high-sugar foods.

Use water, sparkling water, unsweetened tea, or coffee without sugar as lower-sugar alternatives for hydration or energy.

Monitor your glucose response and discuss repeated large spikes with your clinician, especially if you use diabetes medication.
