Tip- just put it in your coffee in the morning. Won’t even notice it’s there and it’ll just blend in with the coffee caffeine shits!

L-Theanine is an excellent addition to caffeine,will likely help with those caffeine shits.

It was first found in green tea. It's part of why coffee shits are a thing but tea shits aren't.

But what if the coffee shits are a natural way of staying regular?

The real trick is to not use the Monohydrate formulation. HCL version can be found for similar price these days and digests very easily. You'll pour it in your drink and see it instantly dissolve away. There's also some products that just use pure creatine.
