This is a single center, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study to determine the acute effect of a developmental dietary supplement liquid shot product on cognitive task performance and perceived effect measures related to mood and mental energy. The study will be conducted in healthy participants.

Mental energy via Cognitive Demand Battery (CDB) Performance Index; for the functional energy shot versus placebo shot.
CDB performance index score is a comprised averaged Z scores for the principal performance measure for each of the three tasks: Rapid Visual Information Processing (RVIP) % accuracy, Serial 3s total number correct, Serial 7s total number correct. A higher score signifies performance improvement. Objective tests within Computerised Mental Performance Assessment framework tasks (COMPASS)
Time frame: Change from baseline to 120 min post- shot consumption
Mental energy via Cognitive Demand Battery (CDB) Accuracy score for the functional energy shot versus placebo shot.
CDB accuracy score is a comprised averaged Z scores for the principal measures of accuracy of performance for the three tasks: Rapid Visual Information Processing (RVIP) % accuracy; Serial 3s % errors; Serial 7s % errors (the latter two were inverted so that a higher Z score related to better accuracy). A higher score signifies performance improvement. Objective tests within Computerised Mental Performance Assessment framework tasks (COMPASS)
Time frame: Change from baseline to 120 min post- shot consumption

Change in Mood via Visual Analogue Scales (VAS) during Cognitive Demand Battery (CDB), for functional energy shot versus placebo
0-100 mm subjective rating scale from none to strongest feelings, within Computerised Mental Performance Assessment framework tasks (COMPASS) for mental fatigue, alert, sociable, simulated, jittery, physical energy. The minimum score is 0 and the maximum score is 100.
Time frame: Change from baseline to 120 min post- shot consumption
Change in physiological state via Profile Of Mood States (POMS) during Cognitive Demand Battery (CDB), for functional energy shot versus placebo
a 37-item inventory, the individual item scores of which are collapsed into six dimensions of mood: anger/hostility, confusion/bewilderment, depression/dejection, fatigue/inertia, tension/anxiety, and vigour/activity.
Time frame: Change from baseline to 120 min post- shot consumption
