It's taurine and imo it should go on the headline.

The article title and it's contents are bullshit. It gets to the one line of truth where it states there's no link that tourine from energy drinks makes the cancer grow more, or causes cancer.

The entire thing is that tourine (naturally made in your body) is used by leukemia cancer cells as a fuel source, and that preventing tourine from going into the cancer cells halts its growth.
