How much caffeine is in this? 100mg per 2-capsule serving, roughly equivalent to a cup of coffee. Additional caffeine comes from guarana and green tea, though amounts are smaller.

Can I take this with my morning coffee? You can, but monitor your total caffeine intake. If taking with coffee, you'll be consuming 200mg+ caffeine, which may be too much for sensitive individuals.

When is the best time to take this? Morning or early afternoon, either 45 minutes before food or 90 minutes after food. Avoid evening dosing due to caffeine content.

Can I take more than 2 capsules? The label allows up to 6 capsules daily (3 servings), but start with 2 to assess tolerance. Remember that 6 capsules = 300mg caffeine.

Is this safe long-term? When taken as directed, yes for most people. Take as directed on the label.

Will this interact with medications? Potentially. Ginseng may interact with blood thinners, diabetes medications, and blood pressure medications. Always consult your doctor if on any medications.

Can I take this if I'm pregnant? No. The label specifically states it's not recommended for pregnant women due to caffeine content and active botanical ingredients.

Why take before or after meals? Some nutrients are better absorbed on an empty stomach, while the timing recommendation also helps minimize any potential stomach sensitivity from the botanical blend.

Does this contain actual coffee? No. The caffeine is from added caffeine powder, guarana (natural caffeine source), and small amounts from green tea extract.

Is this suitable for vegans? Yes. The DHA is from algae (not fish), and all ingredients are plant-based. The capsule is HPMC (vegan). However, it does contain soy.

5. Stress management - Meditation, deep breathing, or other relaxation techniques
6. Mental stimulation - Learning, reading, puzzles keep your brain sharp
