All the comments about caffeine doing nothing... I used to have that problem, until I tried NOS. Not sure what the fuck it really does different than, like, Red Bull or Monster or Rockstar, but it perks me up and allows me to harness the power of hyperfocus on anything and not just things I like.

It doesn't say it has meth in it but... 🤔

Red Bull, Monster, and Rockstar are all relatively low on caffeine as far as energy drinks go. Typical is 200-300mg for a can for average ones.

It's got the same 320mg for a tall can as Monster does. The one ingredient I can see on the label that NOS has that the others don't is something called "inositol." Which sounds like something they made up.

Could just be pladebo effect or a mood difference because I actually like the taste more. I got sick of guarana flavor back when Bawls was still around.

The name implies it's a sugar alcohol, but it appears to have an impact on dopamine and serotonin, so that could be helping you.

Both Monster and Red Bull have inositol in it, at least in Sweden.
