What it means
The label you can check against.
What we found
The panel the brand published on Oct 30, 2026 was read twice, independently, and every compared field agreed. It declares 6 dosed lines. No confirmed formula change is on file for this product.
What we can’t tell you yet
A missing earlier label is not proof nothing changed, and a product record never establishes what is inside a particular tub. Dates are observation dates, not manufacture dates.

Research context
Research-dose context
This label beside selected research
Selected evidence, not a universal effective dose. It does not establish safety, effectiveness, or a dose recommendation for this product.
L-citrulline
A1- This label
- L-Citrulline: 5000 mg
- Studied range
- 3,000 to 9,000 mg
Study details and limits
- Protocol and duration
- per day, in the studies NIH ODS summarizes
- Studied context
- Studied as a nitric-oxide pathway precursor (converted to arginine via the urea cycle) for aerobic exercise performance measures such as oxygen-uptake (VO2) kinetics, blood lactate, and rate of perceived exertion, and for acute resistance-exercise performance and muscle oxygenation. NIH ODS describes evidence for enhancing performance as limited, with few studies and conflicting results.
- Limitations
- A 2022 systematic review/meta-analysis found no significant benefit for endurance-performance outcomes specifically. A single 8 g acute dose did not enhance isometric force production, muscle endurance, or muscle-oxygenation parameters in one resistance-exercise study. NIH ODS characterizes overall performance-enhancement evidence as limited.

Beta-alanine
A2- This label
- Beta Alanine: 3200 mg
- Studied range
- 4,000 to 6,000 mg
Study details and limits
- Protocol and duration
- per day in divided doses, for at least 2 to 4 weeks, not as a single pre-workout dose
- Studied context
- Studied for high-intensity exercise capacity in the 60-240 second range via elevation of muscle carnosine, which acts as an intracellular pH buffer against acidosis. ISSN 2015 position stand: greatest performance benefits in "open end-point" tasks/time trials lasting 1-4 minutes; some benefit noted in aerobic exercise up to roughly 25 minutes; attenuation of neuromuscular fatigue, particularly noted in older adults.
- Limitations
- Strength/resistance-training outcomes remain mixed; training volume may increase without a clear strength gain. Tasks under 60 seconds do not show benefit. Endurance benefit beyond about 25 minutes is not established. Long-term safety data beyond roughly a year, and effects in special/tactical populations, are flagged as needing more research.

L-tyrosine
A2- This label
- L-Tyrosine: 2000 mg
- Studied range
- 2,000 to 2,000 mg
Study details and limits
- Protocol and duration
- per day for five days, in the cadet study
- Studied context
- Studied as the dietary precursor to norepinephrine for mitigating cognitive performance decrements under acute stress. A 2015 Military Medicine evidence review (rapid evidence assessment, 14 trials: 10 RCTs + 4 controlled clinical trials) issued a "weak recommendation" in favor of tyrosine for cognitive stress specifically, stating "all studies showed a positive effect" on that outcome. A widely cited primary study (Deijen et al. 1999, Brain Research Bulletin) gave cadets 2 g tyrosine daily for five days during a combat training course and found better memory and tracking-task performance, plus lower systolic blood pressure, versus a carbohydrate control.
- Limitations
- The 2015 Military Medicine review states explicitly that "no recommendation could be made" for tyrosine's effect on physical performance under stressful physical conditions, and concludes "available evidence is insufficient to make confident recommendations on the effectiveness of tyrosine for mitigating stress effects on physical/cognitive performance" overall, despite the positive signal on cognition. A separate heat-stress study found tyrosine ingestion did not influence cognitive function or physical performance during exercise heat stress despite raised serum tyrosine. NIH ODS's exercise/athletic-performance fact sheet does not cover tyrosine at all.
Selected evidence: Deijen et al., Brain Research Bulletin, 1999
Taurine
A2- This label
- Taurine: 1000 mg
- Studied range
- 1,000 to 3,000 mg
Study details and limits
- Protocol and duration
- per day, acutely across 6 to 15 days
- Studied context
- Studied for aerobic performance (VO2max, time-to-exhaustion, time-trial performance), anaerobic/strength performance, exercise-induced muscle damage, and recovery. A 2018 review ("Taurine in sports and exercise," PMC8152067) reports small-to-moderate improvements across several of these outcomes in some studies.
- Limitations
- The 2018 review states plainly: "limited and varied findings prohibit definitive conclusions regarding the efficacy of taurine on aerobic and anaerobic performance," and separately notes no peer-reviewed evidence exists for an independent role of taurine in skeletal-muscle hypertrophy.
