The formula
100mg. 200mg. Nothing else.
Two ingredients, one ratio, and a very short label.
Per stick
- Caffeine anhydrous
- 100mg
- L-theanine
- 200mg
- Sweetener
- 0g
- Flavoring
- None
- Coloring
- None
- Fillers
- None
Caffeine does the obvious work: alertness, roughly the same as a strong coffee, without the cup.
L-theanine at a 2:1 ratio takes the edge off. It is the amino acid in tea that makes tea feel calmer than coffee at the same caffeine dose.
Nothing else is the point. Anything added would have to taste like something, and then it could not disappear into your drink.
