What's in it.

Full ingredient transparency for Zoot Ultra Cool Mint. Every active, every excipient, every sourcing detail. No fillers hidden behind "proprietary blends."

Per pouch.

Serving size 0.6g. 20 servings per container.

Other ingredients: Microcrystalline cellulose, propylene glycol, flavor, sodium chloride, sucralose, silicon dioxide.

The stack.

Each active does one job. Together they do four at once.

1. Alpha GPC

   60mg

   Choline precursor. Supports the focus underneath the wake.

   Alpha-glyceryl-phosphorylcholine contributes to acetylcholine synthesis — the neurotransmitter the brain uses for focus and memory. 60mg is a stack-synergy dose; full standalone nootropic doses are 200-600mg.

   Sourcing: Pharmaceutical-grade supplier (supplier name pending publication permission).

2. L-Tyrosine

   60mg

   Amino acid. Dopamine precursor.

   Best-studied for cognitive performance under physiological or psychological stress. Military research used it to mitigate working-memory decrements during cold exposure (Mahoney et al., 2007).

   Sourcing: Pharmaceutical-grade supplier (supplier name pending publication permission).

3. Caffeine Anhydrous

   50mg

   Pure caffeine, no water content. The wake.

   50mg is roughly equivalent to one strong espresso. Caffeine blocks adenosine receptors in the brain — the body's 'you're tired' signal. GRAS-rated by the FDA.

   Sourcing: USP-grade caffeine anhydrous, sourced via our manufacturing partner's supplier network.

4. L-Theanine

   30mg

   Amino acid found in green tea. The smoother.

   Pairs with caffeine to reduce jitters without dulling focus. The caffeine + L-theanine combination is one of the best-studied 'smart caffeine' stacks (Owen et al., 2008).

   Sourcing: Pharmaceutical-grade L-theanine. Supplier name pending publication permission.

The excipients, explained.

Most supplement brands list these and move on. If you Google any of them you find scary articles. So we'll explain each one up front.

• Microcrystalline cellulose

  Plant-derived filler. Provides the structural matrix of the pouch.

  Food-grade. Used in countless pharmaceutical and supplement formulations.

• Propylene glycol

  Food-safe moisture-retaining agent.

  GRAS-rated by the FDA. Common in supplements, frostings, vapes, and pharmaceuticals. The supplement use is unrelated to vape use — same molecule, different application.

• Flavor (natural)

  Per-flavor formulation.

  Cool Mint uses peppermint oil and cooling agents. Each flavor's formulation lives on its product page.

• Sodium chloride

  Table salt. For taste.

  Trace amount.

• Sucralose

  Non-caloric sweetener (the active in Splenda).

  Used in trace amounts. We use sucralose because sugar would dissolve the pouch matrix and add unwanted calories. If you actively avoid artificial sweeteners, Zoot may not be for you.

• Silicon dioxide

  Anti-caking agent.

  Food-grade. Keeps the powder mixture from clumping inside the pouch.

What's NOT in it.

Some category competitors claim "no artificial sweeteners" while using stevia or monk fruit blends. We won't claim that, because we use sucralose. Here's the honest list:

Third-party verified.

Every batch of Zoot Ultra is tested by AFL (A Tentamus Company), an independent accredited lab in Plano, Texas. Microbial panel, heavy metals, water activity, pH — full pharmaceutical-grade screening.

The COA covers microbial and heavy metals. Active ingredient dosages (50mg caffeine, 60mg Alpha GPC, etc.) come from the manufacturer's formulation specification. Targeted assays for caffeine HPLC and nicotine LCMS will be added as we run them.

Where the ingredients come from.

The full supply chain is being documented for publication. Specific supplier names will be added as publication permissions are confirmed.
