Unlike most other energy shots, we have added all organic natural botanicals to enhance the effects of caffeine. Our caffeine is also all natural and organic whereas many leading energy shots have synthetic caffeine, one reason for the dreaded “crash”. Please learn more about our unique formulation here and read about the reason why we have come up with the proprietary energy blend for our shot.
Brain cells have only one source of energy to do their job, glucose molecule. Stimulating brain cells with caffeine and other ingredients while denying it of its ONLY energy source did not make any sense. That is why organic cane sugar has been added to our shot. It has only 30 calories, less than 1% of the total daily calories recommended.
Start with half the bottle ( One ounce ) around 8 am instead of your am coffee / Tea. Take the other half about 1-2 pm to get the post lunch boost. If you are very tired you can take the full bottle at a time. It has 170 mg of caffeine whereas most leading brands of energy shots have well over 200 mg ( some over 300 mg ) of caffeine. FDA says that > 400 mg of caffeine should be avoided. You can take two of our bottles without exceeding that limit.
One of our volunteers loved the taste ( it has no medicinal taste at all ) so much that she made salad dressing out of the shot by adding a little olive oil and vinegar to it. She now gets her lunch and the shot together and thus prevents post lunch drowsiness.
Children under 18, pregnant and nursing mothers must not take it. People with high BP and abnormal cardiac rhythm must check with their doctors before using it.
Some caffeine sensitive people may feel jittery. However, It is quite rarely reported, since some of the ingredients counter the brain stimulating effects of caffeine and other ingredients like ginseng. Most student volunteers reported that it IMPROVED their concentration while studying. Ginger and black pepper are spicy and some sensitive stomachs may experience heart burn. If that happens then either stop taking it for a couple of days or dilute it 50/50 with any non acidic fruit juice ( not orange or grapefruit juice for example ) or non caffeinated soda.
Both of these are anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidants. Moreover, Turmeric has an anti-dementia when used chronically. Thus, a regular user of our shot could possibly accrue some anti dementia benefit*.
