Inspired Nutraceuticals DVST8 NEO: Caffeine-Free, Affordable and Effective

Inspired Nutraceuticals DVST8 NEO Supplement Facts

Inspired Nutraceuticals, known for their hard hitting pre-workouts and formulas has placed their attention on the caffeine free category of pre-workouts and affordability. Affordability does not mean cheap, it means something that is obtainable by the majority of consumers that also happens to have effective ingredients at optimal dosages. DVST NEO from Inspired Nutraceuticals accomplishes that without having to use caffeine.

Citrulline Malate – 6,000mg

Citrulline malate is a combination of citrulline and malic acid. In this formula you are getting two parts citrulline (4g) to one part malic acid (2g). The 4g of citrulline does fall within the 3-5g zone where users will achieve the benefit of increased nitric oxide and better blood flow. The 2g of malic acid could potentially aid in energy production.

Citrulline, the key component here, can aid with increased blood flow into the muscles. This helps with muscular performance and endurance, as well as aids in recovery. Users will also experience a bigger, fuller pump.

Beta-Alanine – 3,200mg

Beta-alanine is one of the most common ingredients used in a pre-workout formula. It can improve muscle endurance by buffering lactic acid. This delays muscle fatigue letting you get in more sets and reps. By buffering lactic acid it may also help alleviate DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness). The 3.2g dosage is the common dosage of beta-alanine.

Agmatine Sulfate – 1,000mg

Agmatine sulfate is used at 1,000mg. This ingredient has studies that indicates it can influence nitric oxide to provide better pumps and reduce muscle fatigue. In addition, there is limited evidence that suggests agmatine sulfate may also impact pain receptors allowing users to fight through extreme fatigue and muscle discomfort (due to lifting a lot, not injury) to push themselves past plateaus. 

Betaine Anhydrous – 1,000mg

Betaine anhydrous is known for improving performance. It help with hydration and intracellular water retention, which can make muscles feel fuller, but it won’t create the same acute vasodilation effect as pump-focused ingredients. It’s main benefit comes in the form of improved strength and power output.

Betaine has been shown to improve muscular endurance, performance and power. This means getting more out of each rep and each set. The dosage of 1,000mg is minimal but you may see an acute benefit.

Taurine – 1,000mg

Taurine aids in regulating electrolytes to impact performance in a positive manner. It ensures electrolytes are being shuttled properly to make sure your overall muscular performance improves. Proper hydration, with taurine, will lead to better muscle movements in contraction and relaxation. It may also aid in preventing muscular cramping.

The 1,000mg dosage would be the minimum we would expect to see.

Tyrosine – 1,500mg

Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid that supports the production of dopamine. This can aid in mood improvement and focus. Tyrosine also aids in the production of norepinephrine which can promote alertness. Finally, tyrosine also aids in the production of adrenaline, helping us stay higher energy and higher focused. The 1,500mg dosage is just above the standardized dosage of 1,000mg.

Choline – 1,000mg

A blend of Choline Bitartrate and Urdine-5′-Monophosphate (UMP). Research has shown when you blend/combine these two ingredients together you show enhanced cognitive performance, memory formation, and mood regulation. Choline Bitratrate and UMP at 1,000mg should provide a nice improvement to focus and alertness, as well as mood.

Effinity Paraxanthine – 200mg

Paraxanthine is a metabolite of caffeine. Caffeine is comprised of Paraxanthine (about 84%), Theobromine (12%) and Theophylline (4%). Paraxanthine is said to be the metabolite to provide the benefits of caffeine, but without the potential of negative side effects. This formula contains 200mg of Paraxanthine. To get that amount in caffeine you’d need approximately 238mg caffeine to yield 200mg Paraxanthine. 

Paraxanthine can enhance physical performance by increasing muscle contraction efficiency, improving endurance, and reducing perceived effort during exercise. In addition to providing “energy”, Paraxanthine can improve cognition and focus. Paraxanthine can also positively impact mood.
