Did Gorilla Mind Gorilla Mode change its formula?

THE SHORT ANSWER

Yes. Caffeine 175 to 200 mg, between the label states FormulaSignal observed on October 23, 2023 and April 25, 2025. It also moved l-tyrosine 750 to 2500 mg; betaine anhydrous 1.25 to 2 g; huperzine A Huperzia Serrata Leaf Standardized Extract 200 to 100 mcg. Those are observation dates; the exact day the brand changed it is not established.

CONFIRMEDReviewed October 5, 2026

Gorilla Mind's own Cherry Blackout label went from 175 mg to 200 mg caffeine per scoop. Kanna 250 mg, agmatine sulfate 500 mg, N-phenethyl dimethylamine citrate 175 mg and BioPerine 5 mg are gone from the later label. Alpha-GPC 50% 400 mg, pink Himalayan sea salt 500 mg, and four vitamins plus magnesium, sodium and potassium are new. L-tyrosine went from 750 mg to 2,500 mg, L-citrulline from 4,500 mg to 5,000 mg and betaine from 1,250 mg to 2,000 mg, and huperzine A fell from 200 mcg to 100 mcg. The glycerol line changed from GlycerPump 1,500 mg to HydroPrime 2,000 mg. Creatine stayed at 2,500 mg and malic acid at 1,500 mg.

FormulaSignal observed the earlier state on October 23, 2023 and the newer state on April 25, 2025. Those are observation dates, not the date the brand made the change.

RECORDED COMMERCIAL CONTEXT

The scoop got heavier, 15.6 g to 20.3 g, and the tub still holds 40 servings. Caffeine per scoop rose 14.3%. Neither endpoint carries a price, so nothing here says what happened to price.

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 archived brand images for the same flavor, Cherry Blackout, at 40 servings. The window is two archive observation dates and is not a manufacture or launch date. The brand's product-wide V2 panel graphic, uploaded on 2024-06-12 by its own file stamp and archived on 2024-10-05, is preserved in the Record as well, already printed the later formula, so the change most likely landed before mid-2024; that graphic names no flavor and is not used as an endpoint. Retail tubs of the earlier formula may have stayed on 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.
