Every ingredient justified. Every dose clinical. Here's what's inside and why.
Pre-Workout — $59 CAD
Converts to arginine, boosting nitric oxide production. Enhances blood flow, oxygen delivery, and endurance. Clinical dose: 6-8g (Trexler et al., 2019).
Central nervous system stimulant. Improves strength output 3-5%, reduces perceived exertion. Doses above 3mg/kg body weight are effective (Grgic et al., 2020).
Buffers hydrogen ions, delaying muscular fatigue during sets of 60-240 seconds. May cause harmless tingling (paresthesia). Clinical dose: 3.2g (Hobson et al., 2012).
Dopamine precursor. Protects cognitive function under physical and mental stress. Particularly effective during sleep deprivation (Jongkees et al., 2015).
Crosses blood-brain barrier to increase acetylcholine. Enhances mind-muscle connection and power output (Bellar et al., 2015).
Creatine Monohydrate — $34 CAD
Most studied supplement in sports nutrition (~700 peer-reviewed studies). Increases phosphocreatine stores, improving ATP regeneration during high-intensity effort. 5-10% strength gains typical within 4 weeks. Monohydrate remains the gold standard; no other form has superior bioavailability (Kreider et al., 2017).
Recovery Peptides — $89 CAD
Body Protection Compound, a 15-amino acid peptide originally isolated from human gastric juice. Preclinical studies show accelerated healing of tendons, ligaments, muscles, and gut tissue. Promotes angiogenesis and VEGF expression (Sikiric et al., 2018).
43-amino acid peptide involved in tissue repair and regeneration. Upregulates actin, a cell-building protein important in wound healing. Studies show reduced inflammation and improved tissue flexibility (Goldstein et al., 2012).
Nootropic Stack — $59 CAD
Most bioavailable choline source. Directly supports acetylcholine synthesis for enhanced memory formation and recall. 600mg is the clinical dose used in cognitive studies (Tamura et al., 2006).
Stimulates nerve growth factor (NGF) production, supporting neuroplasticity and long-term brain health. Dual extract (fruiting body + mycelium) at 30% polysaccharides (Mori et al., 2009).
Ayurvedic adaptogen. 12-week studies show improved attention, cognitive processing, and working memory. Standardized to 50% bacosides (Kongkeaw et al., 2014).
Catecholamine precursor. Maintains cognitive performance under stress, particularly during multi-tasking and sleep deprivation. No caffeine interaction.
Natural Testosterone Support — $64 CAD
200:1 hot water extract. Meta-analysis shows significant improvements in total testosterone, free testosterone, and DHEA. Also reduces cortisol by up to 16% (Leong et al., 2021).
Full-spectrum root extract. Clinically shown to increase testosterone by 17%, reduce cortisol by 27%, and improve recovery. 600mg is the studied dose (Wankhede et al., 2015).
Stem extract shown to increase testicular function in preclinical models. Often paired with Tongkat Ali for synergistic effects. Emerging research with growing clinical interest.
Trace mineral. At 10mg/day, reduces SHBG (increasing free testosterone), lowers inflammatory markers, and improves vitamin D metabolism (Naghii et al., 2011).
Deep Sleep Formula — $49 CAD
Highly bioavailable chelated form. Activates the parasympathetic nervous system, reduces cortisol, and improves sleep quality. Glycinate form avoids GI distress common with oxide/citrate (Abbasi et al., 2012).
Amino acid from green tea. Increases alpha brain waves, promoting relaxation without sedation. Synergistic with magnesium for sleep onset (Hidese et al., 2019).
Flavonoid from chamomile. Binds to benzodiazepine receptors, reducing neural excitability without dependency risk. Popularized by Dr. Andrew Huberman for deep sleep enhancement.
At lower doses, ashwagandha primarily acts as an anxiolytic via GABAergic modulation. Reduces time to sleep onset and increases non-REM sleep stages.
