They have have no taste if you swallow them as directed. However, if you decide to open the micro-capsule and expose the pure caffeine - eating it (or consuming it in other ways) you’ll find they have a slightly bitter taste, reminiscent of aspartame or extremely cheap c*****e.

Our small (REGULAR STRENGTH) vial comes with FIVE individual 120mg doses.
Our large (EXTRA STRENGTH) vial comes with SIX individual 200mg doses.

EACH individual 120mg micro-capsule is the equivalent to the caffeine found in about 1.5 cups of coffee or 1.5 cans of Red Bull (small size).
EACH individual 200mg micro-capsule is the equivalent to the caffeine found in about 2.5 cups of coffee or 2.5 cans of Red Bull (small size).

Health Canada recommends no more than 1 dose every 3-4 hours. We recommend looking at the Health Canada approved product information by click HERE.

Health Canada recommends a maximum of 400mp of total caffeine per day. This equates to 1 PURC micro capsule, 2-3 times per day max, depending on which version you consume.  Health Canada states that this is only a guideline and you must be aware of your personal response to caffeine.

We highly recommend you take your caffeine sensitivity into consideration when choosing how much to take. Typically we only recommend 1-2 PURCS a day max because your body can only process so much caffeine at once.  Once you go above your body's acceptable level you will not benefit from the extra caffeine. When you experience caffeine "jitters", you are definitely over your natural tolerances and will not gain any more alertness/wakefulness or benefits. 

If a single (6-80z) mug of regular coffee affects you, then a single regular strength (120mg) dose of PURC CAFFEINE would most likely work well for you. 

If you require a 2+ cups of coffee, or a 20oz "Venti "Starbucks cup of coffee to notice the effect of caffeine, then our 200mg (extra strength) doses would probably suit you just fine.

PLEASE take a moment and read Health Canada's recommendation's toward caffeine HERE.

Health Canada only allows us to offer these two dosage sizes.

The regular strength 120mg dose is perfect for those that drink an average amount of coffee and notice the effects of caffeine very easily.

The extra strength 200mg version is definitely better suite to those with a high caffeine tolerance!

We opted to use atypical sized capsules so that they could be swallowed easier than standard size capsules.  They are basically half the size of a typical Tylenol gel cap - for reference. So much much smaller, and easier to swallow.

We also love our morning coffee! PURCS are the perfect complement to your routine for those times when coffee or energy drinks aren’t available (or practical), but you still need that caffeine boost.

By scaling down your coffee consumption you will not only reduce bathroom breaks, but it will also make it easier on your wallet. Consuming less coffee may also reduce stains and help brighten your teeth.

PURCS are especially great for when you aren't able to carry a liquid caffeine drink around, nor want to deal with the "Liquid In = Liquid Out" problems associated with those.  PURCS are also awesome for when you're driving, at concerts, and places where it's simply not convenient to be chasing a bathroom around.

We recommend having a vial on standby. Keep one in your desk, car, wherever. You can never have too much caffeine on standby.
The special NECKLACE CAP we designed will make it even easier (and fashionable) to wear one around like jewellery for caffeine on demand!

There are only 2 ingredients. A micro-capsule made from inert gelatin encases the 100% pure caffeine. That's it! 

Unlike ALL other caffeine pills and capsules on the market, there are no other fillers, excipients, or unnecessary other additives. 

You bet! We fly regularly with these, wearing a vial around our neck, tucking one in our pocket, or putting it in our carry on. There is nothing illegal about travelling with caffeine. Simply tell airport security the product is just caffeine when you got through screening (if they ask) and there will be no problems travelling in North America. (The same way that carrying vitamins is OK in Canada and USA). If in doubt, just take a PURC before you board your plane, and put the vial in your checked baggage... problem solved!

When it comes to flying internationally with these each country has different laws. Your best bet is to place them in your checked baggage.  If in doubt, check your destination country's local laws surrounding caffeine and vitamins.

PURC packaging was designed to be more then just function.  Instead of putting PURCS in crappy plastic bottles or paper blister packs, we wanted something better for the daily grind.  (Plus, no one likes carrying around bulky and embarrassing plastic pill bottles!)

The small vial is about the size of a rolled up dollar bill.
The large vial is the size of a cigarette. (It actually fits a regular sized cigarette or small joint perfectly.)

When you are done with the caffeine, the vials are PERFECT for holding other things like:
-- Money
-- Vitamins
-- Prescription medications
-- Cannabis
-- Hair ties
-- Bobby pins
-- Pet/Family member ashes (recent customer idea)

What will you use the vial for after?

The vials are not water proof.  They are splash resistant. The manufacturing tolerances are extremely tight, so as long as you keep the vial end caps securely closed, no water or humidity should get in.  We definitely do not recommend swimming or showering with them. 

We use high quality brass metal.  They are very very strong and you would be hard pressed to be able to bend them.

Some of our early testers (who were mechanics) kept them in their pockets every day for literally years, and they never bent or deformed even slightly. 

These metal vials were designed to be used for years!

The most important thing is to always make sure the end caps are screwed on tight!

Maybe. Tell us why we should consider it 🙂
