Behind Update
Our core ingredient, Paraxanthine (enfinity®), elevates you beyond baseline in a way that caffeine simply cannot. It's GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) certified by an independent expert panel and is the product of years of research and data.
What is Paraxanthine?
Paraxanthine is one of the three metabolites of caffeine, and is the compound that produces the energetic and focus effects we love from caffeine. The other two metabolites, theobromine and theophylline are excluded in order to eliminate the side effects of jitters, anxiety, overstimulation, and the dreaded caffeine crash.

Paraxanthine protects dopaminergic neurons, and is strongly protective against neurodegeneration and loss of synaptic function while caffeine only provides marginal protection.
Paraxanthine has a shorter half-life than Caffeine and the other caffeine metabolites. This makes it possible to enjoy the benefits of Update within a shorter timespan and avoid the disruptive impact of caffeine on sleep further into the day:
