FOCUS Ingredients
FOCUS is a formulation of unique botanicals and nootropics, carefully selected for their ability to enhance the neurogenic and cognition-boosting effects of Kanna’s mesembrine alkaloids.
Lion’s Mane
We use a dual extraction
of Lion’s Mane mushrooms
from fruiting bodies only,
grown outdoors on natural
wood substrates. Giving us
an extract rich in Hericinone
& Erinacine alkaloids; known
for their long term benefits
for brain and nervous
system health.
Bacopa
Bacopa Monnieri has
an ancient heritage of
supporting the mind in
ayervedic medicine.
Today, the Bacoside
alkaloids Bacopa produces
are the subject of numerous
scientific studies exploring
its effects on memory
and cognition.
CDP Citicoline
Citicoline, a highly bioavailable
form of choline, is a nutrually
occuring nutrient found in
our cells. Research has
linked choline as an
essential nutrient in
the process of synaptic
communication and the
formation of memories.
How Does FOCUS Feel?
Every body is different, with unique biology and a range of tolerances.
That said, most people notice the effects of FOCUS within 30 - 45 minutes.
When you take your first dose of FOCUS you’ll notice an increased ability to concentrate on the task at hand, without distraction. You’ll find you have a wellspring of mental energy and stamina that can carry you through the day, without feeling overstimulated or jittery.
Others who struggle with more intense concentration issues, or who have a higher tolerance, may notice the long term benefits of FOCUS after following a 1 - 4 week protocol.
The long term benefits are often experienced as being able to more easily concentrate consistently, a sustained clearing of brain fog, and being able to recall information more easily.
FOCUS could best be described a daily vitamin for your brain.
How Does FOCUS Work?
On its own Kanna can help focus your mind and support synaptic function. When Kanna is formulated with the right combination of nootropics its neurogenic and cognition enhancing effects can be significantly increased.
With FOCUS we’ve done just that, in order to provide you with a microdose that can help you grind out a day of work without distraction, or give you long-term support with the health of your brain and nervous system.
How To Use FOCUS?
Start with just 1 capsule.
Take it with water, with or without food.
It’s best to take FOCUS in the morning or during the day. We’ve found that it can be challenging to fall asleep if we take FOCUS late at night — though it can be a lifesaver for working late into the night!
See how you feel after taking just 1 capsule.
If you’d like the effects to feel stronger take 2 capsules.
We don’t recommend taking more than 2 capsules in a day.
FOCUS can be used on its own, or as part of a comprehensive microdosing protocol.
Its effects can enhance your experience when learning new skills, starting creative projects, studying for an exam, job interviews, working on complex tasks, and making routine tasks more enjoyable.
Taken daily, FOCUS is also an excellent way to help keep your mind clear and optimized.
We recommend a 5 days on 2 days off protocol.
Are your products legal?
Yes! Which is why Kanna is such an excellent candidate to explore the world of microdosing.
All of our formulas and ingredients are 100% legal. Our microdoses are solely made with kanna (sceletium tortuosum) and do not contain any scheduled substances. We will not be able to answer any questions or requests about illicit substances.
Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to supporting you on your microdosing journey!
Is Kanna safe?
If you have any serious health issues, are on medications, pregnant or breast feeding, then it is important to check with a medical professional before taking Kanna.
That said, like any herb or supplement, when used with the appropriate dose and setting Kanna is very safe.
Kanna is non-toxic, non-addictive, and its efficacy and safety are supported by clinical research and thousands of years of traditional use.
In fact, among the indigenous San communities of South Africa, Kanna is taken almost daily from birth into old age.

Where do you get your Kanna?
Our Kanna comes from South Africa.
We work with several different growers on the West Coast of the country that have over 20 years of experience cultivating high alkaloid sceletium (kanna) strains.
They use beyond organic standards for their cultivation methods. Zero chemicals, synthetic fertilizers, or non-organic inputs are used in the entire cultivation process.
Plus, a percentage of all sales from the Kanna we purchase goes to support the indigenous San communities of South Africa.
Is your Kanna certified organic?
There is not an official organic certification process for Kanna at this time.
However, since Kanna is a hardy succulent that grows in sand, there is little need for synthetic inputs or pesticides, and most growers do not use them.
We only work with growers that follow beyond organic and ethical growing practices.
How are your formulas tested?
Every ingredient is thoroughly tested for purity and contaminants, including microbial screening for any bacteria, yeast, and mold; heavy metals; pesticides; as well as testing for purity and active compounds.
Can I take Kanna while on medication?
First, we are not doctors and cannot give medical advice.
If you are on any prescription medications or health protocols, it is very important that you have a conversation with your prescribing physician before taking Kanna. It is especially important to talk with your doctor if you are prescribed SSRI or MAOI medication.
Many medical professionals in the US are unaware of Kanna, its potential benefits and potential risks. It may helpful to share the following resources with your health team when considering including Kanna in your health regimen:
Sceletium Tortuosum Research
Is Kanna safe when pregnant or breastfeeding?
At this time there is not enough research to say with certainty.
How many capsules can I take in a day?
We don’t recommend taking more than 2 capsules in a day.
How do I use FOCUS in a microdosing protocol?
Microdosing protocols are often sequenced with on days and off days.
For most people, cycling the two seems to create a better response to the microdose. Though everyone is different, and what works will for one person may not be ideal for another.
There are a few popular microdosing protocols that people follow. Such as 1 day on 2 days, and 4 days on 3 days off.
We recommend 5 days on 2 days off a starting point, but encourage you to listen to your body and intuition, and find a protocol that feels right to you.
If you’d like more support creating a microdosing protocol, we recommend scheduling a call with a microdosing expert!
