Did 1st Phorm Megawatt change its formula?

THE SHORT ANSWER

Yes. Magnesium 10 to 40 mg, between the label states FormulaSignal observed on October 12, 2022 and April 21, 2025. It also moved vitamin B12 10 to 12 mcg. Those are observation dates; the exact day the brand changed it is not established.

CONFIRMEDReviewed October 5, 2026

On 1st Phorm's own Pink Lemonade label, the tub went from about 50 servings to about 40 at the same 5.5 g scoop. Aquamin Sea Minerals 1,000 mg and niacin 15 mg NE are gone, and with them the 120 mg of calcium they supplied. Phyt02 190 mg, huperzine A 50 mcg, sodium 90 mg and potassium 140 mg are new. Magnesium went from 10 mg (from Aquamin) to 40 mg (as magnesium citrate) and vitamin B12 from 10 mcg to 12 mcg. Caffeine 150 mg, Neurofactor 100 mg, L-tyrosine 1,000 mg, choline 400 mg, vitamin B6 5 mg and BioPerine 10 mg did not move.

FormulaSignal observed the earlier state on October 12, 2022 and the newer state on April 21, 2025. Those are observation dates, not the date the brand made the change.

  • NeuroFactor held at 100 mg across both states.

Where the labels came from

Both labels, with their dates.

Limits and review

What this change does not tell you.

Limitations

  • The evidence establishes an observation window, not an exact reformulation date.
  • An observation date is the date FormulaSignal read a source. It is not a manufacture date and not the date a change was made.
  • Both endpoints are the brand's own Pink Lemonade label images. The window is two archive observation dates and is not a launch date; the later panel file carries a 2024-02-06 upload stamp, so the switch on the brand's site most likely came by early 2024. Both labels print servings as an approximate count. Tubs of the earlier formula may have stayed on retail shelves after the switch. This is an agent-reviewed Signal and does not count toward the human-reviewed Signal target.
  • An ingredient stated as removed or added is a difference between two label declarations that were each read in full. It is not evidence about what the product contains beyond what its label declares, and it is not a manufacturing date.
  • At least one endpoint did not record its claim set in full, so a claim present on one side and absent on the other is non-disclosure rather than removal.
  • At least one endpoint did not record its certification set in full, so a certification present on one side and absent on the other is non-disclosure rather than removal.
