5 reasons high-performing men ditched their afternoon energy drink for Superfocus
Summary: Two cans a day, three if the afternoon ran long. At that point you're not using it for performance, you're using it to get back to baseline, and the baseline keeps moving. Here's what replaced it.
Here's all 5 👇
1. Two cans a day was the tell
Not one on a hard day. Two, daily, and a third if the afternoon ran long. At that point you're not using it for performance, you're using it to get back to baseline, and the baseline keeps moving.
2. 75mg, and it lands cleaner
About half a coffee against the 200mg in most cans. The lift is smaller on paper and better in practice, because it arrives without the heart-rate spike and it doesn't fall off a ledge at five.
3. L-Theanine takes the edge off without flattening it
An amino acid that pairs with caffeine to remove the jitter while leaving the alertness. Nello includes it at a real dose. Same lift, none of the buzzing-hands feeling I'd started to think came with the territory.
4. Zero sugar, zero comedown
A lot of what gets blamed on caffeine is the sugar leaving. There's none in this and no artificial sweeteners, so the afternoon has one less variable in it.
5. It's cheaper than the cans were
Two a day adds up to a number I didn't enjoy looking at. Superfocus works out to about $1.20 a day on the 30-serving tub with a subscription, and it replaced the habit rather than joining it.
Based on the 30-serving tub at $44.95 with the 20% subscription discount. Bundle pricing may be lower.
