Benefits & Sources

Formula Ingredient Deck	Benefits Of Each Ingredient
Vitamin B6 pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (PLP)	Serves as a cofactor in more than 150 enzymatic reactions associated in blood sugar regulation, immunity, cardiovascular function, neuronal health, metabolic, and digestive health (38, 40). Reduces plasma glucose (blood sugar levels) via by inhibiting the activity of small-intestinal α-glucosidases (enzymes associated with glucose metabolism) (39). Functions as an antioxidant by counteracting the formation of reactive oxygen species (inflammatory markers) and advanced glycation end-products (38,40). May support blood sugar regulation in women with gestational diabetes (40). cofactor for enzymes involved in DNA metabolism (40).
BCAA 2:1 (Leucine, Valine, Isoleucine)	Improve exercise performance, increase muscle protein synthesis, prevent muscle tissue breakdown, supports immunity, gut health, lipid metabolism, and recovery (41,42). Leucine stimulates muscle protein synthesis (muscle growth) via stimulation of the mTORC1 pathway (a genetic pathway for cell growth) even in a caloric deficit (41). Suppresses muscle degradative pathway (muscle tissue break down) during times of catabolism and caloric deficit (41). Leucine stimulates muscle growth in sarcopenic elderly individuals that have increased leucine needs (41). Acts as a regulator to promote intestinal development, nutrient transporters, and immune-related function (42).
L-Glutamine	The most abundant amino acid in skeletal muscle that fuels immune cells, improves exercise recovery, and optimizes the gut microbiome (18). Vital for lymphocyte (immune cell) proliferation (growth) and paramount in neutrophil (immune cell) destruction of bacteria (18). Vital for activation of genetic signals that support immune function and vitality (18). Glutamine is utilized by immune cells at high rates during catabolic conditions (post-surgery, sepsis, burns, and extreme exercise (18).

Health Tips

Sleep 7-9 hours a night. No energy drink can / should be used to make up lack of sleep.
Try not to drink our energy (or any caffeine) too late in the afternoon. Normally around noon to 1pm is what we recommend for a cutoff. Caffeine has shown to still disrupt sleep even 8+ hours later.
Assess tolerance with half a serving if you are new to energy drinks.
