Pouches

Caffeine bags are small sachets that are placed under the upper lip instead of brewing coffee. They do not contain nicotine or tobacco, and the active ingredient is caffeine. In this category, you will find bags from BEZZER, Poucher, and X-Booster in several strengths and many flavors. All are intended exclusively for adults.

What are caffeine bags

The form is the same as in nicotine bags, which is where the most common misunderstanding comes from. However, the contents are different: the carrier is cellulose, and the active ingredient is caffeine. The bag is not chewed, swallowed, or washed down with anything.

The can fits in your pocket, and after use, only the bag remains to be thrown away. Therefore, this form is convenient on the go, during shifts, and everywhere a cup is inconvenient. We discuss the form in more detail in the text caffeine bags: what they are and how they work.

Strength: milligrams per bag or per gram

This is the most important thing to check, as manufacturers list strength in two ways. The number on the can looks similar but means something different.

• X-Booster provides caffeine per bag: 40 mg in the Easy Booster line and 80 mg in the Pro Booster line, with a bag weighing 0.65 g
• BEZZER provides concentration per gram of product: 85 mg/g, 170 mg/g, or 250 mg/g, with a bag weighing about 0.6 g
• Poucher describes the number 333 mg in three flavors as concentration per gram of bag weight, not the dose from one sachet

It is not worth multiplying concentrations in mg/g by the weight of the bag yourself, as the result would only be an estimate. The caffeine content in one sachet is printed on the label of the can.

Brands, flavors, and ingredients

BEZZER has three levels of strength: the mildest for beginners, the middle for everyday use, and the strongest for those who are already familiar with this form. Flavors include bubble gum, eucalyptus with mint, mango, and blood orange. X-Booster offers the same flavor in two lines, so you only choose the amount of caffeine. Poucher offers blueberry, citrus, bubble gum, and sweet raspberry.

The ingredient list for the bags is short. In the lists for Poucher and BEZZER, alongside caffeine, there is cellulose as a carrier, water, a moisture-retaining substance, salt, a sweetener, and flavors. X-Booster and BEZZER declare no sugar, and a full list of ingredients and allergens is on the label of the can.

How to use the bag

The instructions are common for the entire category and differ only in details provided by the manufacturer.

• place one bag under the upper lip, near the gum
• keep it for 20 to 30 minutes, then remove and throw it in the trash
• do not chew, bite, or swallow the sachet
• do not use two bags at once
• stick to the daily limit from the packaging: Poucher states a maximum of 2 pieces, and BEZZER two to three sachets per day

Do not consume bags with other products that are sources of caffeine. The manufacturer X-Booster states 400 mg of caffeine per day as the upper limit for an adult. The bags are not intended for pregnant or breastfeeding women or for individuals sensitive to caffeine.

What to check on the can

Before your first purchase, read the label for several items:

• the unit of strength: mg per bag or mg/g
• the caffeine content in one sachet
• the number of bags in the can, usually 20 pieces
• the daily limit and holding time provided by the manufacturer
• the full composition, allergens, and contraindications

If you are just starting, choose a lower strength from the same line. We write more in the text caffeine tolerance.

Frequently asked questions

Do caffeine bags contain nicotine?

No. Bags in this category do not contain nicotine or tobacco, and the active ingredient is caffeine.

In the ingredient lists for Poucher and BEZZER, alongside caffeine, there is cellulose as a carrier, water, salt, a sweetener, and flavors.

How much caffeine is in one bag?

It depends on the manufacturer. X-Booster states directly 40 mg or 80 mg per bag. BEZZER and Poucher provide concentration in mg/g, so you check the content in one sachet on the label of the can. Multiplying mg/g by the weight of the bag will only give an estimate, and the binding number is the one from the label.

How long to keep the bag under the lip?

From 20 to 30 minutes, as stated by the manufacturers. During this time, you do not chew or swallow the bag. Then you remove it and throw it in the trash, not the toilet. You place the bag under the upper lip, near the gum, and do not use two bags at once, as the instructions are common for the entire category.

What is the difference between X-Booster 40 mg and 80 mg?

Only the amount of caffeine in the bag. The Easy Booster line has 40 mg of caffeine per bag, while the Pro Booster has 80 mg, with a bag weighing 0.65 g. The manufacturer divides flavors into Easy Booster and Pro Booster lines, while the bag weight, number of pieces in the can, and flavor remain the same.
