A breakup story
Sorry, caffeine. I'm seeing someone new.
Caffeine was the clingy ex. It overstayed, kept you up and ran hot and cold. Astradust shows up steady, then knows when to leave. Welcome to the healthy relationship era 😏
Why upgrade
You loved caffeine. It never loved you back.
Caffeine has powered mornings for centuries, and it still works. But it comes with baggage most of us have just learned to live with.
The crash
A big lift, then a hard drop a few hours later. People who drink the most caffeine report crash symptoms most often.5
Needing more
One cup becomes two. Skip it and the headache shows up. Caffeine withdrawal is a recognized condition.6
The 2 a.m. ceiling stare
Caffeine lingers. A large dose within hours of bed can delay sleep and shorten it.1
Why paraxanthine
Caffeine vs. paraxanthine
When you drink coffee, your liver turns most of the caffeine into paraxanthine. Astradust gives you the paraxanthine directly.
| Measure | Caffeine | Paraxanthine |
|---|---|---|
| Half life | About 4.1 hours | About 3.1 hours. Clears faster.2 |
| Evening sleep | Linked to poorer sleep quality in an evening exercise study | More favorable sleep results in the same study3 |
| Focus after exercise | Smaller improvement | Greater improvement in cognitive function after a 10 km run4 |
| Jitters and anxiety | More jittery and anxious at higher doses | May feel less jittery than caffeine7 |
| Stimulant side effects | Common at higher doses | No increase in side effect ratings in a human trial4 |
What to expect
From your first sip to lights out.
One stick in 16 oz of water. Then you get on with your day.
- About 10 minutes
Alertness kicks in
A clean lift you can feel, without a cup of coffee.
- Afternoon
Through the slump
Steady energy for the part of the day when most people reach for a second cup.
- Evening
Still in the tank
For the game, the gym, or the kids’ practice. The good part of the day deserves energy too.
- Bedtime
Clears faster
Paraxanthine has a shorter half life than caffeine, so less is left in your system when the day is done.2
