Hahahahahahahaha! After reading the title, I was going to give them props for releasing the results till I read this:
After the disappointing results in May, sources said the company hoped to delay publication of the study and asked researchers to change the name of the product to distance it from the analysis.
Of course they did... Perhaps they should have done some more rigorous internal testing before opening themselves up to a clinical study. Studies can be extremely hard to get significant results, and even some pharmaceuticals fail to replicate them at later dates. Furthermore, that stack is just a basic caffeine/L-theanine stack with some B vitamins and vinpocetine, sold for $40... At least make a more comprehensive stack before trying to do clinical trials. In the words of Ice Cube: "Check yo self before you wreck yo self."
