Paraxanthine Better Than Caffeine?

[Dirtnasty]

So I’ve been looking into giving this supplement a try. Basically caffeine breaks down into this compound at about 80% in our bodies so by taking it on its own you skipping a step and getting rid of some of the negative sides like jitters and sleep impact. Wondering if anybody has experience with it. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8875973/

I have not heard of this but very interested. My cups of coffee are kind of my guilty pleasure.

Never heard of it but that's an interesting article. Going to do some more digging on this later. Thanks for posting

Just trying to bring things I hear about to board and see if there is any experience if not I don’t mind experimenting

So I bought a 30 pack of gummies. For 30. Probably stick with good ole caffeine at thes e prices but I’m going to see how much a difference I feel on 400-400 of the two.

Very interested in this. Would love something in between caffeine and modafinil.

Gummies came today will probably try Wednesday for leg day if back is full go

Right now I feel like I’m on decent dose of caffeine I took 400 mg which is what I do for caffeine. I I haven’t had caffeine since last Wednesday and this I’m not shaking or anything. I could see this being a great alternative if it was a just a. Little more expensive than caffeine but at about 2 dollars for a double serving I’d probably stick to caffeine

I honestly don’t see how this wouldn’t affect sleep. It’s the main metabolite of caffeine. It seems to lock me in at the gym real good. I won’t be much help on the sleep part as I take it at noon and don’t have lights out till 2 am
