NOW Foods Sustained Energy 90 Capsules

NOW® Sports Sustained Energy is formulated to get you going and keep you going. It combines a blend of immediate and sustained-release caffeine (about 120 mg total) with a full complement of B vitamins and energy cofactors — chromium, magnesium malate and carnitine — that your cells use to drive energy production.* It also supplies tyrosine and iodine to support healthy thyroid function, which underpins metabolism and energy.* Together these nutrients support sustained energy production and mental alertness in a convenient capsule, without the sugar and calories of an energy drink.*

About the key ingredients

• Caffeine ~120 mg (immediate + Xtenergy™ sustained-release): A blend of fast-acting and sustained-release caffeine to provide energy and mental alertness that lasts.*
• B-Complex Vitamins + Magnesium Malate, Chromium, Carnitine: B vitamins and energy cofactors that cells use to convert food into usable energy, supporting sustained energy production.*
• L-Tyrosine & Iodine: Nutrients that support healthy thyroid function, which underpins metabolism and energy.*
• Other ingredients: A plant-based hypromellose (cellulose) capsule with minimal flow agents such as rice flour and stearic acid — no unnecessary fillers.

Who it's for

Sustained Energy suits adults who want lasting energy and mental alertness from a capsule rather than a sugary energy drink — including busy professionals, students and active people.* It appeals to those who like caffeine paired with B vitamins and energy cofactors for smoother, longer-lasting support.* Because it's caffeinated, it's not for those sensitive to caffeine.*

Suggested use

Take 2 capsules daily with 8-12 oz. of water, preferably with a meal. Do not exceed recommended dose. Store in a cool, dry, dark place after opening.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from a plain caffeine pill?
It combines immediate and sustained-release caffeine (~120 mg) with a full B-complex plus chromium, magnesium malate and carnitine — the cofactors cells use for energy production — and adds tyrosine and iodine for thyroid support. So it supports energy metabolism, not just a caffeine jolt.*

Will the energy last?
The sustained-release caffeine is designed to release over time, so energy and alertness build and last rather than spiking and crashing. It's meant to keep you going through a long day or workout.*

How do I take it?
Take 2 capsules with 8–12 oz of water, preferably with a meal. Don't exceed the recommended dose or combine with other caffeine, and take it earlier in the day.*
