In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/enfinityenergy.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">approximately 80 percent<\/a> of the caffeine we consume is converted to paraxanthine.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When taken in supplement form, you get a direct hit of paraxanthine, instead of it being a downstream result of chugging your morning cup of joe\u2014meaning you can score its perks quickly without dealing with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/caffeine-metabolizer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">caffeine\u2019s sometimes frustrating side effects<\/a>. \u201cParaxanthine is responsible for many of the positive effects we associate with caffeine, like increased focus, mental alertness, and energy\u2014but without some of the negative effects like jitters, anxiety, sleep disruption, digestive discomfort, and increased heart rate,\u201d Wilson explains. (This is, in part, because it has a <a href=\"https:\/\/enfinityenergy.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shorter half-life<\/a> than caffeine itself.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It’s only in recent years that paraxanthine’s potential benefits have been studied more closely and it’s gained attention as a standalone supplement.

Enhanced focus and alertness<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paraxanthine works by blocking adenosine receptors in your brain, which keeps you from feeling sleepy, while also boosting dopamine levels to enhance mood and focus, according to naturopath <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aznaturalmedicine.com\/team\/dr-kiera-lane-nmd-lac-diplac-faborm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kiera Lane<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, N.M.D., MSAc, L.Ac., Dipl.

Increased energy (without jitters)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">“Sensitive folks may experience jitters, anxiety, rapid heart rate, or even GI discomfort after consuming caffeine,” Wilson notes. For these people, paraxanthine could be a game-changer, potentially delivering alertness and energy without the overstimulated feeling that caffeine can cause, he says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Improved performance<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re looking for a boost at the gym, paraxanthine might just be the supplement to help you level up. Not only can it boost your focus and attention, but it can also improve your reaction time, which can be beneficial for athletes training for a competition, according to Wilson. Additionally, improved cognitive function and reduced mental fatigue can help you push through a challenging workout.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. Healthy metabolism<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because paraxanthine has been linked to an increase in muscle mass and strength in animal <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC8875973\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">studies<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it may be an effective tool for supporting metabolism. Some <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/full\/10.1080\/19390211.2024.2351222\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">studies<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> even suggest that paraxanthine may increase the body’s ability to break down fat for energy, which could support weight loss and improved body composition, notes Wilson.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. Longer-Lasting effects<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cParaxanthine may offer longer-lasting, steadier stimulation, making it ideal for those who want sustained focus without caffeine\u2019s spikes and crashes,\u201d explains Wilson. When taken directly as a supplement, you side-step the bodily process of breaking down caffeine (and all that often comes with it), resulting in an overall more pleasant experience. That\u2019s right, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC9932512\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">research<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> suggests paraxanthine is less likely to ultimately leave you in an energy crash, as sometimes occurs with caffeine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/workout-fuel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How To Fuel An Intense Workout Without Loads Of Caffeine<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s worth noting, however, that since paraxanthine has a stimulant effect, you should check in with your doctor if you\u2019re taking stimulant medications for ADD, like Adderall, Ritalin, Concerta, or Vyvanse, as the combination could overstimulate the central nervous system and lead to increased heart rate, blood pressure, or difficulty sleeping, warns Wilson.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to take paraxanthine for max benefits<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think you might want to add paraxanthine to your routine? Use these tips to get started.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Start with a low dose<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When starting with paraxanthine, it’s wise to begin with a lower dose to assess your individual tolerance and response, suggests Lane. \u201cThis approach allows you to gradually increase the dosage as needed and minimize the risk of potential side effects,\u201d she says. \u201cBy starting with a lower dose, you can also experiment with different timing strategies to determine when paraxanthine works best for you.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt\u2019s always good to start low and adjust based on how you feel,\u201d Wilson agrees. For general focus benefits, he recommends starting with a dose of around 100 to 150 milligrams. For athletic performance, closer to 200 milligrams may be more effective. (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/paraxanthine-capsules-n-a-100-vegetarian-capsules\/vs-0440\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BodyTech Elite’s Enfinity\u00ae Paraxanthine<\/a> contains 200 milligrams per two-capsule serving.)<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Take it at the right time<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you’re looking to support peak performance, Lane recommends taking paraxanthine about 30 to 60 minutes before high-focus tasks, workouts, or any activity requiring sustained energy. \u201cThis timing allows the paraxanthine to enter your bloodstream and start working just when you need it most,\u201d she says. \u201cWhether you’re studying for an exam, hitting the gym, or simply tackling a busy day, paraxanthine can provide a steady boost of energy and focus without the jitters or crashes often associated with caffeine.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Pair it properly<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wilson recommends combining paraxanthine with other supplements like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/l-theanine-200-mg-120-capsules\/vs-3836\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">l-theanine<\/a>\u2014an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/vitamins-supplements\/supplements\/amino-acids\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">amino acid<\/a> found in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/herbs-natural-remedies\/herbal-teas\/green-tea\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">green tea<\/a> that promotes relaxation without causing sedation\u2014for enhanced cognitive benefits. \u201cWhen combined with paraxanthine, it can create a synergistic effect, enhancing focus, reducing feelings of anxiety, and improving overall cognitive performance,\u201d he says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Final Advice<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While research on paraxanthine is still emerging, it certainly shows promise as a better-feeling alternative to caffeine, helping to boost your athletic performance, cognitive function, and even metabolism without pesky side effects. Remember, though, it’s always best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new supplement, especially if you’re taking medications or have underlying health conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Love the boost caffeine gives you but can\u2019t stand the jittery side effects?
