Overview
•Zinc: 30 mg a day is above the 25 mg/day EU upper limit (EU SCF/EFSA), though within the US limit of 40 mg/day. Long-term intake above this limit can cause copper deficiency, which can lead to anaemia, low white blood cells and nerve problems.
•Vitamin B6: 20 mg a day is above the 12 mg/day EU upper limit (EFSA 2023), though within the US limit of 100 mg/day. Taking more than this for months is linked to nerve damage (peripheral neuropathy: numbness, tingling or pain in hands and feet), which usually improves after stopping.
•Contains huperzine A (200 mcg per capsule), a potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitor that can cause cholinergic excess, nausea, bradycardia, or headaches if taken continuously without cycling.
•Mucuna pruriens provides botanical L-dopa, which can interact significantly with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), antipsychotics, and dopaminergic medications.
•Purine alkaloids (methylliberine and theacrine) stimulate central adenosine receptor pathways; use caution if sensitive to stimulant-like effects or predisposed to palpitations and sleep disturbances.
•Formulated with 10 mg of vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) per capsule (up to 20 mg if taking the maximum recommended 2 capsules daily), which approaches the 12 mg/day EFSA safe upper guidance limit.
