Why we reformulated TOTAL FOCUS

At FLCK, we don’t settle for "good enough." Total Focus has always been about keeping you sharp, clear, and, well, focused. But after months of testing, tweaking, and rethinking the balance of ingredients, we decided it was time for an upgrade. The result? A reimagined version of Total Focus that’s more refined, more intentional, and still delivers the cognitive clarity you need—without compromising on taste or function.

First off, we’ve exiled Ashwagandha from the mix. Why? Well, FSANZ decided it’s a "novel food," which means we can’t legally put it in a drink. They don’t want you casually sipping ancient roots without drowning in paperwork. And let’s be honest—Ashwagandha can upset your stomach in higher doses, and it tastes like dirt. So, we let it go.

With that, we rebalanced the formula. Wattleseed? Gone. Its earthy nuttiness wasn’t needed anymore. We peeled back the coffee and cinnamon and let the mandarin—peel and all—take the lead. A sharper, more complex citrus edge cuts through, with herbal undertones giving depth. Everything settles into a careful balance: vanilla adds smoothness, while the warmth of cinnamon and coffee stays in the background, just enough to give the drink some weight.

We also carefully increased the dose of N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine (NALT) to better buffer the caffeine. NALT, as a dopamine precursor, smooths out the stimulant's edge, keeping your focus sharp without the jittery spikes.

And about the formula? We’re not worried about copycats. We’ve tested countless versions, tweaking it until it felt right. Plus, good luck figuring out how to fully integrate oat extract, sage extract, and phosphatidylserine into a carbonated drink without turning it into a disaster. That’s our edge.

This isn’t just an update—it’s more refined, more intentional. We didn’t make it louder—we made it better. We’re proud of it, and we think you’ll feel the difference.

So, whether you’re heading into a marathon of meetings or crushing your personal best at the gym, Total Focus is here to keep you dialled in, clear-headed, and ready to take on whatever comes your way.

For the Ashwagandha lovers out there, we’ll keep an eye on the latest from FSANZ, and if we get an opportunity to use it again in the future, we will.
