Over the last decade or so, the European and North American markets have exploded, each with its own popular categories, approaches, formulas, and flavors. Down under in Australia is very much the same, where new brands have emerged, and even more impressively, they’ve been competitive with international supplements, even with their strict regulations. Xclibre is one of the more recent entrants in the Australian market with the one original product in Balance.
Xclibre’s Balance is a rather intriguing product, or at least not your typical debut, and this happens when you get outside of America and enter international markets. The supplement is not a pre-workout but comes with a host of ingredients and dosages to increase and enhance energy and focus. The goal of Balance is designed to be a comprehensive, anytime-use nootropic product to elevate energy and improve focus, cognition and memory, whether that be to start your day or get you going and zoned in for a workout.
In its double, two-scoop serving, Xclibre squeezes in a host of common nootropic ingredients, although it is the dosages that help put Balance over the top. It comes with half a gram of rhodiola and the popular cognitive-enhancer citicoline, and 400mg of theanine in combination with 196mg of caffeine for smooth, lasting energy. Ginseng is in the mix at 300mg, as well as b vitamins, 300mg of calming lemon balm, another 300mg of holy basil, a hefty 2.4g of acetyl-l-carnitine, and a gram of acetyl-l-tyrosine.
Again, despite the tough rules and regulations in Australia, Xclibre is another example of being able to stand out above that, with Balance built for moderate energy, better focus, enhanced cognition, and better overall mood. The supplement is relatively specialized, but its price remains relatively fair, at $70 (46.05 USD) through xclibre.com for a tub of 20 full servings. The brand currently only ships within its home country; however, it is working on changing that and offering it to international consumers.
