What’s Inside Thryv Energy Strips? A Breakdown of Every Ingredient (And Why It Matters)
At Thryv, we didn’t just want to make an energy strip. We've set out to make a smarter one.
Instead of flooding your system with sugar and stimulants, we've engineered our dissolvable strips with a focused blend of science-backed ingredients that work synergistically to give you lasting energy, sharper focus, and a clean mental edge without the crash.
Here’s a breakdown of what’s inside every Thryv Energy strip and why it matters:
Alpha-GPC – 15mg
Alpha-GPC (Alpha-glycerophosphocholine) is a choline compound that crosses the blood-brain barrier efficiently and increases acetylcholine production which is a key neurotransmitter involved in memory, attention, and neuroplasticity.
By boosting acetylcholine levels, Alpha-GPC enhances communication between neurons, leading to sharper cognition, better mind-muscle connection, and improved reaction time. It's especially valued by athletes and students for increasing both physical and mental performance.
Huperzine A – 0.1mg
Huperzine A is a naturally occurring alkaloid extracted from Huperzia serrata. It functions as a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, which means it prevents the breakdown of acetylcholine in the brain.
By prolonging the life of acetylcholine (the same neurotransmitter enhanced by Alpha-GPC), Huperzine A reinforces cognitive function, memory consolidation, and mental clarity. Even at microgram doses, it has measurable effects. Our 0.1mg dose is precisely calibrated to support focus while avoiding overstimulation.
L-Theanine – 15mg
L-Theanine is an amino acid found primarily in green tea leaves. It promotes relaxation and increases alpha brain wave activity, which is associated with a calm but alert state of mind. It also modulates levels of serotonin, dopamine, and GABA.
When paired with caffeine, L-theanine smooths out the overstimulation by reducing heart rate and perceived stress, without reducing the effectiveness of caffeine itself. This combo is scientifically proven to enhance focus, reduce distractibility, and improve cognitive accuracy.
Caffeine – 70mg
Caffeine works by blocking adenosine receptors thus preventing the brain’s natural signal for fatigue and simultaneously promoting increased dopamine and norepinephrine activity. This results in heightened alertness, reaction speed, and motivation.
Our 40mg dose is enough to activate your system without spiking cortisol or triggering the jitters common in higher doses. Paired with Dynamine and L-theanine, it creates a balanced stimulation effect which allows for a subtle come down AKA, no crash.
Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin) – 500mcg
Vitamin B12 is essential for energy metabolism, red blood cell formation, and neurological function. It acts as a coenzyme in the synthesis of DNA and the maintenance of myelin sheaths that protect nerves.
We use methylcobalamin, the most bioactive and neurologically supportive form of B12. Many people are deficient in B12 which can lead to fatigue, brain fog, and mood issues. Supplementing it helps maintain consistent energy and cognitive performance throughout the day.
Natural Mint Flavor + Sweeteners (Stevia + Advantame)
Flavor matters. We use a refreshing mint flavor to complement the performance formula and leave your mouth feeling clean, not coated. Our sweetener combo (stevia + a very small amount of advantame) is zero-calorie, heat-stable, and has no impact on blood sugar, making it friendly for both active lifestyles and intermittent fasting routines.
The Synergy Behind the Strip
Each ingredient in Thryv was chosen not just for its individual benefits, but for how it interacts with the rest of the formula. This is where real performance comes from precision pairing, not megadosing.
- Alpha-GPC and Huperzine A work together to elevate acetylcholine levels and prevent its breakdown, leading to sharper cognition and stronger mental endurance.
- Caffeine is the spark of the formula, delivering fast, clean alertness. In Thryv, its moderate dose is intentional, strong enough to boost performance, balanced enough to stay smooth when paired with L-Theanine.
- L-Theanine acts as a buffer, smoothing out the stimulants’ edge by promoting alpha brain wave activity, keeping you alert, not anxious.
- Vitamin B12 fuels the body’s natural energy metabolism. B12 supports cellular energy production and neurological function, acting as a metabolic foundation for sustained mental clarity.
The result?
Clean and lasting energy. Laser focus. No crash.
All in a pocket-sized strip that hits fast and travels light.
Experience it for yourself.
