Zhou Energy + Focus - L Theanine Caffeine Pills, 200mg L-Theanine, 100mg Natural Anhydrous Caffeine Boost for Adults, Men & Women, Slow Extended Release - 60 Vegetarian Capsules (Pack of 1)

I ordered this product after a friend recommended and gave me a 5 day supply. I can not believe how great I feel. I have tried many, many products including NAD injections, Sermoralin injections and other very expensive methods to increase stamina and energy. I am a 60 year old female who practices yoga, farms, eats clean...does all the "things." Yet, when I hit that 60 mark, my energy level tanked. After just 2 weeks on this supplement, I feel a world of difference! I am once again waking with the crow of the roosters, going to bed early and sleeping well, feel happy, focused. Can't say enough about how good I feel. If I am feeling a bit of a drag mid day, I take another. I am NOT a coffee drinker so maybe the caffeine makes a difference for me. Don't care what it is, I love that I feel great!

Nice quality and does not give any jitters. No smell or aftertaste. Gives the energy needed.

I decided to write a review in case anyone out there is like me. I don’t drink Coffee and for a long time I was a Black Tea Drinker. I wanted to move to something stronger so I tried MIO. After a year of using Mio, I started to get bad headaches to the point where I was taking 2 to 3 sets of pain relivers every day. After a while I thought about taking direct caffeine. I tried two brands. I found the Zhou Energy + Focus to be the best of the two, however I started to get odd tingles in my arm that wouldn’t go away for three hours. (Ugh!) Here’s how I fixed it, and what I hope helps someone. I chill a bottle of 16oz water and then drink the top 2 oz. I pour a little juice into the bottle to replace the 2oz. Afterward, I open a Zhou caffeine tablet and add the contents into the bottle. (You can also drop the entire capsule. It will dissolve.) After a thorough shake, I drink my new “wake up beverage.” I find my body does better when it can slowly add the caffeine. However, doing it this way reduces calories from Coffee or Tea, and it doesn’t give me headaches from the artificial sweetener in Mio. No jitters, no odd tingles, I just wake up smooth. I’ll add that I don’t drink the 16oz bottle immediately, I enjoy it over 5 to 10 minutes like I would do any drink. The caffeine generally kicks in after about 15 to 20 minutes and in about 30 minutes, I’m fully awake. So if you get jitters from these pills, this trick may help you. Have a great day!

I’ve been using Zhou Energy + Focus - L Theanine Caffeine Pills, and I am thoroughly impressed! This supplement strikes an ideal balance between energy and calmness, making it a fantastic choice for those who need a boost without the jittery side effects commonly associated with caffeine. The combination of 200 mg of L-Theanine and 100 mg of natural anhydrous caffeine is simply brilliant. L-Theanine is known for its soothing properties, which helps to promote relaxation and mental clarity. I have noticed that I can focus better on tasks, whether at work or during study sessions, without feeling anxious or overwhelmed. The natural caffeine provides a gentle boost of energy that lasts throughout the day. I appreciate the slow extended release formula, as it keeps my energy levels steady without any crashes. It's perfect for mornings when I need an extra push or during those afternoon slumps. Also, as someone who values clean ingredients, I love that these capsules are vegetarian and free from unnecessary additives. They are easy to swallow, making them a convenient addition to my daily routine. If you're looking for a reliable way to enhance your energy and focus while maintaining mental clarity, I highly recommend Zhou Energy + Focus. This blend has truly improved my productivity and overall well-being, and it has become a staple in my supplement regimen!

I'm genuinely not sure how to rate this item, so I did a 3 as an average - neither good nor bad - rating. On the one hand I DO think the pills work - on the other hand, they don't seem to work the same way every time? I should start by saying that I have a history of anxiety, I do not take any form of anti depressant, and I do NOT have a history of any attention deficit problem. Also, I only weigh about 120 lbs. I had hoped this pill would help me be more productive and less distracted when working from home. Additionally, I don't drink much caffeine (I drink tea, but rarely coffee). When I do drink tea - even at night - it has no effect on keeping me up, and I find it quite soothing. The first time I took the tablet was a week day at about 2pm, on an empty stomach. Within an hour or so I was very jittery, and even had some heart palpitations. Not painful, but uncomfortable. It was very difficult to calm down or sit still. It was such a strong reaction that I waited 2 days before I took it again. Next time I took it at about 8am, and I ate first. This time I had no noticeable effect. No jitters or heart palpitations, but also no noticeable focus or sense of calm. It was just nada. The third time I took it was also in the morning, also after eating, but not at home - I was at a research library. Here I noticed the better benefits. I seemed to buckle down and get more done. I was not easily distracted. I've taken the pill maybe 10 or 12 times now with various results. The heart palpitations only happened the first time, and they might have been me being nervous about something unrelated? But the other times I've taken the pill it has varied between a nice calm sense of focus to absolutely no results at all. I also notice that I am a more impatient driver on the days that I take it. As of now I do not use these daily, but on the days I do use them the results are sort of all over the place. If I could figure out a way to get a consistent reaction (like taking it the same time, or with/without food, etc) then I might be able to give them a higher rating.

I had a really high expectation on this product, especially given how long I've waited for it to arrive here in Australia. But after almost two weeks of testing (in morning, afternoon, before meal, after meal.etc), I'm quite disappointed to say that it just does not work for me. What bothers me the most tho is that I've actually bought two bottles at once for the sake of saving some shipping cost...

Not sure if its a batch issue but what I got felt like placebo pills. Didn't do anything for me at all
