This is kind of like saying eating food makes your cancer worse. The tricky thing with cancer is that they are just like regular cells except they are immortal and spreading out of control, but in general things that are good for you/nutritious are also good for cancer/sustain those cells too. For example my dad was on those athletic green multivitamin mixes with all sorts of stuff but one i'll single out is folate (which is in a lot of stuff and generally good for you). But when he was diagnosed with cancer the first thing they told him was to get off those vitamins since one of the chemo drugs was a folate inhibitor and if he was taking folate supplements it would contradict the treatment. I'm guessing its the same deal here, a regular vitamin thats good for you is also good for the cancer.

Yeah taurine is a pretty common amino acid
I was going to comment that too its just an amino acid, we're made out of the stuff and so is the cancer so this is a bit of a silly headline.
i read the article as it doesn't give you cancer but makes it more aggressive
junk. If you have cancer, it could make it worse. if not, the body makes it anyway.
Welp. I guess I'm getting cancer.

This is the best energy drink I ever tried. Three bottles will give you palpitations.
Seems up my alley, where do you get locally?
It's pretty popular with Italian-Americans in my area. I see it in a lot of Italian delis.
I feel like energy drinks are just too extreme , I remember me and my friends would drink them in highschool and get all roided up to walk home from school lol
About to get taurine in our drinking water I bet.
Ron Desantis just passed a bill to add Red Bull Zero to Floridians drinking water
