PSA on caffeine content, a closer look at Bang and transparency in the industry…
I’ve always had a personal vendetta against proprietary blends. Why? Because it’s misleading to the consumer and gives manufacturers the ability to lure people in by using known ingredients in micro doses just so they can put it on the label. I’m not saying that every company is doing that, but if I’m purchasing something with the intent of using the ingredients in it to give me that edge I’m looking for, I want to know that there’s adequate dosing of those ingredients. Let’s take a look at this…
Claims all over of super creatine (which by now everyone knows mono hydrate is perfectly fine, you can’t reinvent the wheel), COQ 10 and BCAAs. Cool. If you’ve been in the industry for a while you probably know in what amounts the effective doses are for these, try finding any indication of how much is in this can anywhere on the label. You can see that it’s somewhere toward the end of the ingredients list (not even on the amount per serving), right after sucralean. With this labeling they could sprinkle 10mg of each ingredient, label the can and call it a day. All I’m saying is it’s nice to know that you’re getting what you pay for, so pay attention to the labels.
Of course, at Clutch Town Coffee we hide behind nothing. Even on our new pro line, we intentionally stuck on the label “1.5 grams of Agmatine Sulfate” because we’re proud to have that amount on our label. It’s not a bullshit label claim to get your hopes up, it’s one of the highest dosing’s of agmatine on the market currently. Amazing pumps, blood flow and even a high enough dose to tap into the cognitive benefits of agmatine.
Aside from that, our blend has been slightly reformulated and we want to let you know exactly how much caffeine content is in that perfectly color coordinated bottle of brew.
As if me telling you weren’t enough, we’re literally giving you the lab results of our caffeine content testing, it really doesn’t get more transparent than that. 38.7mg per ounce of our cold brew gives you a 464.4mg total dose of caffeine per bottle. Let’s put that into perspective…
Thank you Men’s Health for providing something useful. Going by this chart, you can see that we’re the equivalent of a Grande Starbucks on Test + Deca & a little Tren. So if you’re sensitive to caffeine, just go for a half bottle and save yourself the palpitations. We always have your best interests in mind because we’re all one in the same, in this together. If you follow us, you probably have an unhealthy tolerance to caffeine and lift heavy shit a few times a week, which is more than I can say for any other coffee company.
