Science Overview
Caffeine is one of the most widely studied ingredients for mental energy, alertness, and mood. However, conventional caffeine sources are rapidly absorbed, often resulting in a sharp peak followed by a decline in alertness and focus several hours later—commonly referred to as the “crash.”†
Xtenergy addresses this challenge through a sustained-release caffeine profile designed to extend the nootropic benefits of caffeine over time.*1
In a randomized, double-blind, single-dose crossover pharmacokinetic study comparing Xtenergy with immediate-release caffeine, Xtenergy demonstrated benefits in supporting sustained mental energy and mood.*1
Sustained alertness
Xtenergy extended the cognitive benefits of caffeine for several hours as the effects of immediate-release caffeine began to decline.*1
Mood support
Xtenergy helped extend the mood-supporting effects of caffeine for up to eight hours.*1
Reduced feelings of tension and edginess
Compared with immediate-release caffeine, Xtenergy supported mental energy with fewer feelings of tenseness, jitteriness, and fatigue.*1

Technology
Xtenergy uses patented spray melt delivery technology designed to provide a gradual release of natural caffeine over several hours. This controlled-release system moderates the rate at which caffeine becomes available in the body, helping maintain alertness and mental energy while minimizing the abrupt peaks and declines associated with conventional caffeine sources.
The spray melt process produces a stable, free-flowing granular ingredient with tightly controlled specifications for payload, dissolution, and particle size, enabling consistent manufacturing performance and formulation reliability.
