Ingredients SKIP!
Nobody wants a Tuesday slump¹, right? We think so too. But which ingredients are exactly in SKIP! and what are their benefits?
On this page, we provide you with as much explanation as possible about the ingredients in SKIP! and how much of each ingredient is included in the composition. But we also have to follow the rules. Due to strict EU legislation, we cannot mention all benefits for some ingredients. Do you have specific questions about a particular ingredient? Feel free to send us a message.
5-HTP (from Griffonia)
5-HTP is a precursor of the hormones serotonin and melatonin. Ever experienced a Tuesday slump? Then you probably know that you feel less cheerful and happy.
5-HTP can be obtained from various foods, but also as an extract from the African plant Griffonia Simplicifolia. The 5-HTP-rich seeds of the plant are good for the nervous system.* Two capsules guarantee 200 mg of the active substance 5-HTP, derived from Griffonia Simplicifolia extract.
Three SKIP! capsules contain 200 mg 5-HTP

Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide)
Vitamin B3, also known as niacinamide, plays an important role in your mental recovery after an intense weekend full of partying. This vitamin supports the normal functioning of the nervous system* and helps you mentally rebalance after all those stimuli on the dance floor. Additionally, it contributes to normal psychological function*, helping you stay clearer and more focused after a festival.
Do you feel exhausted or are you experiencing a 'slump'? Vitamin B3 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue*, so you can feel energetic and refreshed again faster after a festival weekend.
Three SKIP! capsules contain 26 mg Vitamin B3
Vitamin B6 & B12
Vitamin B6 and B12 play an important role in multiple biological functions in your body. After a festival or party, it is very normal to feel listless and tired. Vitamin B6 and B12 help with listlessness and fatigue. In addition, these two vitamins have a positive influence on your immune system and contribute to good resistance. Bring on that Tuesday dip!
Three SKIP! capsules contain 12 mg Vitamin B6 & 250 µg Vitamin B12
Vitamin C
Of course, Vitamin C cannot be missing. Vitamin C is an antioxidant. This means that this vitamin fights oxidation. Now I hear you asking, what is oxidation? Oxidation is a natural process in your body cells in which free radicals play a role. The role of an antioxidant is to protect your body cells.
In addition, Vitamin C helps reduce fatigue, supports your immune system, and contributes to good resistance.
Three SKIP! capsules contain 150 mg Vitamin C
EGCG
EGCG (Epigallocatechin gallate) EGCG is a powerful catechin from green tea and one of the most effective antioxidants we know. Like Vitamin C, it protects your body cells against free radicals released during partying.
But EGCG does more: scientific research shows that it also affects your serotonin levels. EGCG works synergistically with the 5-HTP in SKIP!, making your serotonin system even more effectively supported for faster recovery from your Tuesday dip.*
Three SKIP! capsules contain 100 mg EGCG
L-Theanine
L-theanine is a natural amino acid found in tea leaves, especially green tea. This special ingredient calms your mind without making you sleepy. Perfect after an intense festival weekend!
L-theanine works by influencing the levels of GABA, serotonin, and dopamine in your brain. This helps reduce stress and provides mental calm after all the stimuli on the dance floor. It works together with the other ingredients in SKIP! for optimal recovery.
Three SKIP! capsules contain 250 mg L-theanine
Bioperine® (black pepper extract)
Bioperine® is a patented extract from the black pepper fruit (Piper nigrum). This special ingredient is known for its ability to improve the absorption of nutrients in your body. In other words: it helps your body absorb and utilize the powerful substances in SKIP! even better.
Specifically with green tea extract (EGCG) and L-theanine, Bioperine® ensures better bioavailability. This way, these substances work even more effectively together with 5-HTP and the B vitamins to help you recover faster from a heavy festival weekend.
Three SKIP! capsules contain 5 mg Bioperine®
