Glutathione
Glutathione: The Master Antioxidant
Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide made of glutamine, cysteine, and glycine, and it’s produced naturally in the liver. It’s often called the “master antioxidant” because it doesn’t just neutralize free radicals, it regenerates itself and other antioxidants like vitamins C and E. That makes it a recycling system for cellular defense, not just a one-and-done antioxidant.
Core functions:
- Neutralizes reactive oxygen species (ROS) and free radicals
- Supports detoxification in the liver and brain
- Regenerates other antioxidants (like polyphenols and vitamins)
- Protects mitochondria and supports cellular energy metabolism
- Enhances immune function and reduces inflammation
Polyphenols
What Are Polyphenols?
Polyphenols are a diverse group of naturally occurring micronutrients found in plants. They’re responsible for the vibrant colors, flavors, and defense mechanisms in fruits, vegetables, teas, herbs, and spices. In humans, they act primarily as antioxidants and anti-inflammatories, helping to protect cells from damage and regulate key biological processes.
There are over 8,000 known polyphenols, but they fall into four main categories:
- Flavonoids – Found in berries, tea, onions, and dark chocolate. Known for reducing inflammation and supporting heart and brain health.
- Phenolic acids – Present in coffee, whole grains, and certain fruits. They help combat oxidative stress.
- Polyphenolic amides – Found in chili peppers and oats. These have protective effects on cells.
How Polyphenols Work in the Body
Polyphenols are potent antioxidants, meaning they neutralize free radicals—unstable molecules that can damage cells and DNA. This oxidative stress is linked to aging, inflammation, and chronic diseases like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.
Beyond their antioxidant role, polyphenols also:
- Modulate inflammation by downregulating pro-inflammatory enzymes and cytokines
- Support gut health by acting as prebiotics and promoting beneficial bacteria
- Enhance brain function by improving blood flow and protecting neurons
- Improve cardiovascular health by supporting blood vessel flexibility and reducing blood pressure
Nootropics
What Are Nootropics?
Nootropics—sometimes called “smart drugs” or “cognitive enhancers”—are substances that improve mental performance. They can be natural or synthetic, and they typically work by:
- Enhancing neurotransmitter activity (like dopamine, acetylcholine, or GABA)
- Increasing cerebral blood flow and oxygenation
- Supporting neuroprotection and neurogenesis (the growth of new neurons)
- Reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in the brain
The goal? Sharper focus, better memory, improved mood, and sustained mental energy.
Vitamins
Synergy in the Stack
Together, these vitamins:
- Fuel mitochondrial energy production, amplifying the effects of caffeine, ginseng, and nootropics
- Support neurotransmitter balance, enhancing mood, focus, and cognitive stamina
- Regenerate antioxidants like glutathione and vitamin C, extending their protective effects
- Buffer stress and support adrenal resilience, helping you stay sharp under pressure
Electrolytes
What Are Electrolytes?
Electrolytes are charged minerals, like sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and chloride—that dissolve in bodily fluids and conduct electricity. This electrical activity is essential for:
- Nerve signaling
- Muscle contraction
- Hydration and fluid balance
- pH regulation
- Nutrient transport across cell membranes
Think of them as the body’s internal wiring system—without them, your cells can’t communicate or function properly.
How Electrolytes Work
Electrolytes maintain the electrical gradients across cell membranes. These gradients are what allow neurons to fire, muscles to contract, and nutrients to move in and out of cells. When you sweat, exercise, or experience stress, you lose electrolytes, especially sodium, potassium, and magnesium, which can lead to fatigue, brain fog, and cramping if not replenished.
Caffeine
Natural Caffeine: The Clean Stimulant
Caffeine is a plant alkaloid that acts as a central nervous system stimulant. It works by blocking adenosine receptors in the brain, adenosine being the neurotransmitter that signals fatigue. By doing so, caffeine increases alertness, reaction time, and perceived energy.
But not all caffeine is created equal. Natural caffeine, especially from green tea, is absorbed more gradually and is often accompanied by compounds that modulate its effects, making it smoother and more sustainable.
