Napoli Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I was wondering if there was currently any corporate funding for cluster headache research. I was thinking of sending an email over to Red Bull asking for their participation. I figure since many of us actually use their product to provide some sort of relief it could serve as very good publicity for them to form a partnership with our community. Any thoughts?

Psiloscribe Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 No Corporate funding for research at this time. Red Bull has been approached several times and they are not interested at all. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napoli Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Shame about redbull. I really would have thought they'd be excited to share some positive health effects of their product being that they have dealt with so much negative publicity in the past. I suppose people have approached monster? I think im gonna send red bull an email anyway. Any other ideas? Do you think that many people approaching the same company would be a good idea?

Napoli Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Based on conversations on the facebook page I've discovered that food and beverage companies must stay clear of any involvement in medical research. :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClusterHeadSurvivor Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 i sent one to coke, more of a thank you letter...Nothing.No reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Yeah that's probably not going to work. Such brands do not want to be associated with health problems in any way or shape. It's bad publicity (even if their product is actually helpful). :-X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napoli Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 Finally got a reply to my email to redbull. From what I understood from the email they cannot promote any health benefits of their product howeber there doesnt seem to be anything legally preventing them from funding research. They are simply not interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
