Kimera Koffee                                    

This podcast is supported by Kimera Koffee. Kimera Koffee (both with a “K”) is premium high-altitude coffee infused with Nootropics. It’s one of the most well known and loved nootropic coffees on the market. As a special offer to our community, they are offering 10% off your order with the code WELLFED, all caps, no spaces on their website, kimerakoffee.com.

Nootropics are brain vitamins—sometimes also called smart vitamins—that help promote a whole bunch of good stuff like focus, cognition, and memory. Kimera calls it “coffee with cognitive enhancers.” The coffee is infused with 750mg of nootropics, specifically Alpha-GPC, which is a natural choline compound, Taurine, and L-Theanine, which is a non-dietary amino acid that is well know for promoting mental relaxation. It’s typically found in green tea and certain mushrooms. Some people supplement with it because it can help reduce anxiety. Kimera Koffee’s nootropics come from organic compounds found naturally in food sources such as eggs and green tea.

Kimera Koffee chose these specific nootropics in order to create the right mental and physical edge. The coffee is great for athletes prior to workouts, and great for improving focus at home or at work. The beans are incredibly high quality and harvested from their high altitude farm in the Dominican Republic.
