Kanna (My favorite pre-workout supp/noot)

I'm curious to find out if others have experienced the same performance-enhancing impact from Kanna that I have. It's been remarkably effective for me, particularly noticeable during my squat sessions where I've managed to perform some of my most intense reps I’ve ever performed.

Because that’s a low-to-moderate dose of caffeine for me and my typical stack is incredibly stimulating. This is a maintenance dose for me.

Our Mushroom Magic Matcha will make caffeine feel stronger. Also, just a heads up, most of the kanna on the market in preworkouts is the fake shit from China. It's a plant in a completely different genus Mesembryanthemum. This happens in brands not doing proper lab testing, as they just take the Chinese COA's word for it. Real kanna from South Africa is VERY different, much more expensive, and much harder to grow right. Nobody is putting real kanna into preworkouts. They are buying the fake shit from China. Our kanna mixed with Mushroom Magic Matcha and extra caffeine is certainly going to be stimulating, but also the PDE4 inhibiting effects from the kanna will improve circulation. I assume that's why some brands are tossing it into preworkouts, but they have to use real kanna for that to make sense. Only a couple of the alkaloids have that PDE4 effect, and even in real kanna only certain strains make them in significant quantities to be active. The science behind kanna cultivation and extraction is actually very complex. Only a handful of people in the world are doing it right.
