"Hyper Strength Stack." 8 actives hidden in one 464mg proprietary blend, 1 capsule.

1 of 8 recognized ingredients hit their clinically studied dose — and at least one amount is hidden in a proprietary blend, which caps the grade at C.

Ingredients vs the studied dose

Ingredient	Label dose	Status
Caffeine Anhydrous 125mg caffeine — disclosed and reasonable (the one number you can trust here)	125mg	✓ OK
Citicoline Citicoline hidden in the 464mg blend — needs 250–500mg on its own	hidden	? HIDDEN
Alpha-GPC Alpha-GPC hidden in the blend — clinical dose is 300–600mg	hidden	? HIDDEN
L-Tyrosine N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine hidden — typically needs 300mg+	hidden	? HIDDEN
Taurine Taurine hidden — studied around 1–2g, far more than the blend can hold	hidden	? HIDDEN
Panax Ginseng American ginseng (10:1) hidden — dose unknown	hidden	? HIDDEN
L-Theanine L-theanine hidden — needs ~200mg	hidden	? HIDDEN
Huperzine A Huperzine A hidden — potent at mcg amounts, so the hidden dose matters	hidden	? HIDDEN

The verdict

A proprietary-blend problem in one line: the "Hyper Strength Stack" packs eight actives — NALT, citicoline, theanine, taurine, ginseng, yohimbine, Alpha-GPC and huperzine — into a single 463.95mg number, so you can't verify a single dose. And the math doesn't work: citicoline alone is studied at 250–500mg and Alpha-GPC at 300–600mg, so 464mg total can't come close to dosing all eight. What's disclosed is a standard RDA B-vitamin layer and 125mg of caffeine. The real concern is what's hidden — yohimbine (a genuine stimulant with cardiovascular effects) and huperzine A at undisclosed amounts. Cheap, hidden, and stimulant-forward.
