Read the full profileThe blends.
Every botanical above is precision dosed into two proprietary blends: 200mg per gummy in Drive and 250mg per gummy in Spark. We name every active. The ratios stay ours.
Every batch is third-party tested for identity, potency, and contaminants. That is the Adaptyn standard.
Straight answers.
What counts as an active at Adaptyn?
An ingredient included to do something, named on the label, and dosed deliberately. Fillers dressed up as function do not qualify.
Why are actives grouped by type?
Botanicals, ferments, natural compounds, and vitamins behave differently and deserve different scrutiny. Grouping keeps the story honest about what each ingredient is.
Why do blends hide ratios while singles do not?
Blends are formulas, and the ratio is the recipe. Single actives like creatine or biotin are exactly what they say. Either way, every batch is third-party tested.
Will more actives be added?
Yes. New actives are added as new products launch, and each one gets its own profile page covering what it is, where it comes from, the research behind it, and which products use it. All four groups grow with the line: botanicals, ferments, natural compounds, and vitamins.
