What is in one 9 g scoop
The Canadian panel lists thirteen medicinal ingredients. The amino acid group is the largest by weight: beta-alanine at 1600 mg, L-citrulline at 1000 mg, taurine at 750 mg, L-tyrosine at 250 mg and L-theanine at 100 mg. Caffeine comes from one source, caffeine anhydrous, at 300 mg per scoop.
The vitamin and mineral group adds 250 mg of vitamin C as ascorbic acid, 30 mg of niacin as niacinamide, 4.2 mg of vitamin B6, 3 mcg of vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin and 84 mg of magnesium from magnesium oxide. A 100 mg Lion's mane mushroom extract (10:1 from the fruiting body, equal to 1000 mg of dried mushroom) and 5 mg of BioPerine black pepper fruit extract complete the list.
Pineapple flavour
Pineapple is a tropical, tangy flavour. Citric acid gives the sour note, beta-carotene and red beet powder give the yellow-orange colour, and sucralose with stevia leaf extract do the sweetening. Mixed into 250 to 350 mL of cold water it tastes close to a pineapple soda; more water softens it.
Who it is for and how to take it
The label limits use to adults 19 years and older who weigh 75 kg or more. Take one scoop once a day with food, 45 to 90 minutes before exercising, and wait 3 to 4 hours between doses. Do not go above 4 mg of caffeine per kilogram of body weight in a single dose, and drink fluid before, during and after training. MADNESS is for occasional use, not for prolonged use.
Three hundred milligrams is a large amount of caffeine for one serving, so count any coffee, tea or energy drinks you have on the same day. If you are new to stimulant pre-workouts, read the full directions on the tub before the first scoop. At one scoop per training day, the tub covers 30 sessions.
