Frequently Asked Questions
How Does PerformZen Help With Performance Anxiety & Stage Fright?
PerformZen is a uniquely formulated dietary supplement that is made for those of us who want or need to perform at our best, overcoming pre-performance fear, stage fright, butterflies and performance anxiety to do so!
GABA & L-theanine in PerformZen work together to quickly relieve stress, calm nerves, increase alpha brain waves (responsible for wakeful relaxation) and theta brain waves (associated with creativity). Theacrine in PerformZen provides similar boosts in mental clarity, mood & energy levels as caffeine, but without the jitteriness & subsequent energy dips that come with a cup of Joe. Magnesium & Vitamin B6 in PerformZen aid in GABA absorption, making both GABA & L-theanine ingredients fast-acting & potent, while restricting & filtering the release of stress hormones to the brain. Finally, Ginkgo Biloba helps maintain healthy Cortisol (primary stress hormone) levels & prevents stress-induced blood pressure rises which are responsible for reduced co-ordination in high stress scenarios.
Who is PerformZen For? What Situations can PerformZen help with?
PerformZen was originally made with musicians in mind; specifically orchestra violinists. One of the co-founders of PerformZen was a career violinist and in over 15 years of playing professionally, had never been able to overcome the crushing fear and panic that would overwhelm her before a performance. The performance anxiety that came with her job got so bad that she took a break and dedicated herself to finding a solution to this problem. Fast forward two years & several collaborations with experts in the medical & nutrition industry, and we have PerformZen Calm Performance Formula.
From lots of testing and feedback from users, we identified that there were several particular use-cases that PerformZen Calm Performance Formula really helps with by effectively combating performance anxiety & helping the user focus on clear & creative thought: Public Speaking, tests and exams, job interviews and (first?) dates. Several of our testers were shocked at how much PerformZen helped during these situations. Take a look at some customer feedback to learn more.
Can PerformZen Help With Social Anxiety?
We have been asked so many times about PerformZen being effective at helping customers overcome social anxiety that we wrote an entire page answering the question. The short answer is: Yes, PerformZen can help with your social anxiety symptoms.
The Canadian clinical psychologist and professor of psychology, Jordan Peterson, described a social party or larger gathering "as a monster for someone who experiences social anxiety." This is because, for those with social anxiety, parties & social settings can be severely stressful situations. And when under stress, our bodies respond by releasing certain chemicals & hormones and, in many cases, switching to a fight-or-flight mode, almost as a form of survival. In these scenarios, our bodies are flooded with the adrenaline hormone (epinephrine), causing the heart to pump blood with greater force which leads to the symptoms of social anxiety that you are familiar with.
PerformZen helps overcome these social anxiety symptoms by boosting the neurotransmitter GABA in your brain. GABA works by inhibiting brain signals to reduce nervous system activity, and GABA deficiency has been directly linked with higher anxiety levels in studies. Increased GABA levels is extremely beneficial for those experiencing social anxiety, and the other ingredients in PerformZen (like Magnesium, Vitamin B6, Theacrine & Ginkgo Biloba) boost cognitive performance so that you can keep nervousness at bay and focus on enjoying every social situation.
When is The Best Time to Take PerformZen?
PerformZen is designed to be fast-acting, so a serving of PerformZen (2 capsules) works most efficiently when taken 2-3 hours prior to work or a high-stress/high-anxiety performance of any kind. For longer performances, to maintain calm, focus & creativity you can take an additional capsule 1-2 hours in.
Are there Any Side Effects?
Unlike traditional beta blockers that are used off-script to help with performance anxiety, PerformZen offers the same benefits (and more) but with none of the side-effects of traditional beta blockers. PerformZen is made from all-natural ingredients that boost your bodies natural processes, meaning that unwanted side effects are rare. In addition, PerfomZen does not require a costly prescription like many medications, and is made with vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free & soy-free capsules.
However, everyone is unique and will react differently to different foods. This is why you should consult with your physician before trying anything new and avoid using PerformZen when pregnant or nursing.

How Much PerformZen should I take?/What is the recommended dosage?
