- Durk Pearson & Sandy Shaw's
- Brain Food for Fast, Smooth, Clear-Headed Energy
- A Dietary Supplement
Blast Caps is an energy-boosting Designer Food dietary supplement designed by Life Extension scientists Durk Pearson & Sandy Shaw for their own use. Start your day with Blast Caps for fast and long-lasting energy. Blast Caps fires up your brain naturally and jump-starts your day. It contains important ingredients for making, activating and using noradrenaline, an important neurotransmitter:
- L-phenylalanine (an essential amino acid) and its cofactors and other nutrients your brain needs to produce noradrenaline, and
- Caffeine, which helps to release noradrenaline and increase sensitivity to its effects.
Blast Caps also works to help provide appetite satisfaction.
Normal and natural, noradrenaline is needed by some of your nerve cells to transmit information to one another.
Suggested Use
For adults only. 1-2 capsules 1-4 times per day as desired. Please read Caution statement.
Other Ingredients
Gelatin capsule, magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide.
Phenylketonurics: Contains Phenylalanine.
Warnings
Caution: Do not consume more than 2.6 grams of supplemental phenylalanine per day.
Not for use by children or by pregnant or lactating women, persons with the genetic metabolic disorder PKU, psychosis, persons taking prescription MAO (monoamine oxidase) inhibitor drugs, pigmented malignant melanoma cancer patients, those with Wilson's disease, or those who have a violent temper. Not for use by anyone sensitive to any of the ingredients.
Excessive consumption of L-phenylalanine or caffeine may cause insomnia, especially when taken in the late afternoon or evening. If insomnia occurs, reducing the amount consumed by 1/2 will usually correct the problem. If insomnia is a problem, we suggest taking Blast Caps only once per day for the first week, right after you arise in the morning. During the second week and thereafter, take it twice per day, upon arising, and hour before lunch.
