Rooted Energy

It's a daily energy supplement built around three systems working together: nootropics for mental clarity, adaptogens for stress resilience, and natural caffeine for a smooth lift. Lion's Mane and Cognizin Citicoline support brain energy and focus. KSM-66 Ashwagandha and Rhodiola help the body stay steady under daily pressure. Organic matcha provides 50mg of natural caffeine, paired with L-Theanine to smooth the curve and eliminate the crash. Affron saffron supports balanced mood. It's not a pre-workout and it's not an energy drink -- it's a daily tool for staying sharp and grounded, wherever your day takes you.

Rooted Energy is built for daily use across all kinds of days -- work days, training days, slow mornings, demanding afternoons. It uses only 50mg of natural caffeine from organic matcha, paired with L-Theanine to smooth the curve, plus adaptogens and nootropics for sustained mental clarity. Pre-workouts and energy drinks typically rely on high caffeine doses for a short, intense effect. This formula is designed to keep you functional and focused all day, not just for a workout window.

Nootropics are compounds that support cognitive function. Lion's Mane is a mushroom extract studied for its role in brain health and neurological support. Cognizin Citicoline is a patented form of citicoline known for supporting brain energy and mental clarity. Together, they contribute to sharper focus over the course of the day.

Adaptogens are plant compounds that help the body modulate its stress response -- they don't suppress or stimulate artificially, they help your system stay balanced under pressure. KSM-66 Ashwagandha and Rhodiola Rosea are two of the most well-researched adaptogens available. KSM-66 is a premier ashwagandha extract studied for stress management and endurance. Rhodiola helps reduce mental fatigue during demanding days.

affron® is a patented saffron extract backed by 11 human clinical studies. At 28mg daily, the dose in Rooted Energy, it has been shown in double-blind, placebo-controlled trials to support a balanced mood and help manage occasional stress, with measurable results appearing within 4–5 weeks of consistent use. It's included to round out the formula: steady, supported energy rather than just stimulated energy.

Most people experience sustained focus and calm energy for 3-4 hours. Because the caffeine dose is lower and paired with L-Theanine, the effect curve is smoother and more sustained than a typical energy product -- less of a peak, less of a drop. The adaptogen support from ashwagandha and rhodiola contributes a steadier baseline throughout the day, even after the caffeine has cleared.

Both. The 50mg caffeine dose is intentionally moderate, about a cup of coffee, which means it can fit into the morning without disrupting evening sleep, or be used in the early afternoon for a steady midday pick me up. Avoid taking it within 5-6 hours of bedtime if you're caffeine-sensitive, but for most people it's versatile enough to reach for whenever you need to stay sharp. The 28mg of affron® in Rooted Energy is the exact dose used in clinical research, and studies show it's the minimum threshold where meaningful mood and stress benefits were observed. Taking more affron® is generally considered safe, but the research doesn't show added benefit beyond this dose for daily mood support.

Many people use it that way. At 50mg of natural caffeine -- about half a standard cup of coffee -- it provides a noticeable lift alongside cognitive and stress-support ingredients that coffee doesn't offer. Some prefer it alongside their morning coffee; others use it as an afternoon alternative.

At 50mg, Rooted Energy is one of the lowest-caffeine energy options available -- roughly half a cup of coffee. If you're highly sensitive, start with half a stick pack to assess your tolerance before committing to a full serving.

Yes, just be mindful of your total caffeine intake. Rooted Energy contains 50mg of natural caffeine, and our Pre-Workout contains 200mg, so using both in the same day brings your combined total to 250mg from these two products alone. That's a reasonable amount for most people, but factor in any other caffeine sources (coffee, tea, etc.) when planning your day. If you're sensitive to caffeine, you may want to use one or the other rather than both.

No. The combination of 50mg caffeine and L-Theanine is specifically designed to produce calm, alert energy -- not the spike-and-crash of high-caffeine products. L-Theanine smooths the stimulant effect and promotes steady focus without anxiety or overstimulation.
