A nutritional supplement that improves energy levels in a human being and a method of administering the same to provide enhanced energy is described. The nutritional supplement comprises fat, caffeine, vitamins and minerals enveloped and surrounded in an edible protective coating. In preferred embodiments, the nutritional supplement is a composition including a fatty matrix supporting caffeine, B vitamins and vitamin D, the fatty matrix is comprised of dark chocolate and the edible protective coating is a sugar shell. The caffeine in the supplement provides for enhanced energy, vitamin D helps to maintain muscle function and strength and supports mental health, and B vitamins facilitate conversion of food or stored energy into active energy. The fatty matrix and edible protective coating cooperate to preserve the nutritional supplement without the need for artificial preservatives. The fatty matrix and edible protective coating further provide for delivery and improved bioabsorption of the caffeine and vitamins to a human ingesting the food product. The composition also may include L-Theanine to assist in tempering the anxiety-inducing effects of caffeine such as jitteriness and masking agents to mask the bitterness of the caffeine, vitamins and minerals. The method comprises administration of the nutritional supplement as described to improve energy levels in a human being.

The present invention relates to a dietary supplement, composition, nutraceutical, and/or system for inducing or treating biological responses or conditions (namely sleep or sleep disorders) which utilize ultra-low dosage amounts of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, co-enzymes, stimulants, and/or similar ingredients in a highly bio-active delivery system which bypasses first pass metabolism. In particular, the present invention relates to a nutraceutical composition/formulation which substantially bypasses first pass metabolism and such as, but not limited to, activation of the glymphatic system to facilitate clearance of neuronal metabolites from the CSF and interstitial fluids in the brain.
