The guide

One pouch. Dialed in.

No spitting, no mess, no learning curve. Feel it in about 10–15 minutes. Here's everything you need to run it right.

The steps

  1. Pouch in.

    Tuck one pouch behind your upper lip, between gum and lip. Slide it side to side until it sits comfortably.

  2. Feel it fast.

    Feel it in about 10–15 minutes. The blend absorbs through your gum, not your stomach.

  3. Keep it in.

    Leave it in place for 20 to 60 minutes. No chewing, no spitting needed.

  4. Cap your day.

    Remove and discard when you're done. Max 4 pouches in 24 hours.

Start with one.

100 mg of caffeine is a real dose. Run a single pouch. Feel it in about 10–15 minutes. See how you feel before reaching for another.

  • Stay under 4 pouches in 24 hours.
  • Keep your last one well clear of bedtime. It’s caffeine.
  • Not for everyone: skip it if you’re under 18, pregnant or nursing, or sensitive to caffeine.

Saliva, yes. The pouch, no.

The saliva is completely fine to swallow. That’s normal. The pouch itself is not meant to be chewed or swallowed. Keep it tucked in place, then remove and throw it away when you’re finished.

Do & don't

Morning.

Your first lift of the day, in place of coffee. No cup, no crash.

Study & deep work.

L-theanine keeps the focus calm and locked-in for long sessions.
