Our analysis — editorial take, not from the label
A genuinely fully-disclosed label with a strong 4g citrulline and 3.2g beta-alanine dose. The three-part SXT caffeine system yields 311mg per scoop, but 275mg of that is plain caffeine anhydrous — only 50mg comes from the extended and delayed-release zumXR forms, so it is mostly one strong hit rather than a gentle sustained curve.

Cautions
- The panel's footnote gives a total caffeine yield of 311mg per full 1-scoop (16.3g) serving from three sources: 275mg caffeine anhydrous, 30mg zumXR extended-release caffeine and 20mg zumXR delayed-release caffeine — roughly three cups of coffee.
- The same panel also lists a half-scoop column (8.2g, 42 servings per tub) at half of every dose shown here, so check which column a retailer is quoting.
- 3.2g beta-alanine commonly causes a harmless tingling (paresthesia) sensation.
Formulated for healthy adults — not intended for anyone under 18. Performance studies use roughly 3–6 mg of caffeine per kg of body weight, which puts 311 mg at the studied amount for a 52–104 kg adult. Full health & safety notes
Product details
Where this label sits
Alpha Lion SuperHuman Pre sits in the high stim tier of the Scoop Sense pre-workout database, which spans 0–400 mg of caffeine per serving. Every active ingredient on the panel is listed with its own dose — nothing is hidden inside a blend total. It runs 21 servings per container at the full labeled serving. Everything on this page comes from the manufacturer's supplement facts panel as of July 2026 — never from the marketing page.
Key ingredients & studied doses
- L-Citrulline · 4 g. A solid dose of straight (non-malate) L-citrulline; most pump studies use 6-8g of citrulline malate, which is roughly 3-4g of actual citrulline, so this lands in a comparable active range.
- Beta-Alanine · 3.2 g. Within the 3.2-6.4g/day range shown to raise muscle carnosine over time; commonly causes a harmless skin-tingling sensation at this dose.
- Betaine Anhydrous · 2.5 g. At the 2.5g dose used in most published betaine power-output research.
- Taurine · 1 g. A common supportive dose; most taurine research uses 1-6g, so this sits at the low end of that range.
Flavors & sweetener
Six flavors (Hulk Juice, Unicorn Juice, Orange Gainsicle, Miami Vice, Grapezilla, Lion's Blood) sweetened with sucralose and acesulfame potassium; the panel checked here lists FD&C Blue #1 and FD&C Yellow #5 for color.

How we log this label
Every entry is built the same way: we read the current supplement facts panel, log each disclosed dose, compare it against the amounts used in published research, flag proprietary blends, and state the cautions plainly. The full methodology explains each step.
This label against the research
How we evaluate labelsEach bar shows the amount commonly used in published human research, and where this label's dose falls against it. Research amounts are context, not a recommendation — they are not doses, and nothing here is medical advice.
-
Citrulline4 g
67% of the low end of the studied range0studied range 6 g–8 g10 g
Studies use about 6 g of pure L-citrulline, or 8 g of citrulline malate — which is about 5.3 g of citrulline at the usual 2:1 ratio, and closer to 4 g if the label is 1:1.
Source: Gough et al., European Journal of Applied Physiology 2021 — “The most commonly employed dose of CM is a single acute 8 g dose”
-
Beta-alanine3.2 g
At or above the studied amount0studied range 3.2 g–6.4 g7 g
Studied as a daily loading protocol of 3.2–6.4 g taken for four weeks or longer. A single serving below that range still counts toward the daily total, but one scoop is not a studied dose on its own.
Source: Rezende et al., Frontiers in Physiology 2020 — “It seems that substantial amounts of BA are required to increase MCarn, with most studies using doses of ~3.2–6.4 g·day−1, for periods ranging from 4 to 24 weeks.”
-
Betaine2.5 g
At or above the studied amount0studied range 2.5 g3.5 g
Trials run from 1.25 g to 5 g a day; 2.5 g, usually split into two doses, is the amount most of them use.

-
Taurine1 g

Trials run from 1 g to 6 g a day, given as single doses or for up to two weeks, with mixed results across studies.

Caffeine311 mg
At or above the studied amount0studied range 200 mg–400 mg450 mg
Performance studies most often use 3–6 mg per kg of body weight, which works out to roughly 200–400 mg for most adults. The FDA cites 400 mg a day as an amount not generally associated with negative effects in healthy adults.
Source: Guest et al., Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition 2021 — “Caffeine has consistently been shown to improve exercise performance when consumed in doses of 3–6 mg/kg body mass.”
Common questions about Alpha Lion SuperHuman Pre
How much caffeine is in Alpha Lion SuperHuman Pre?
311 mg per full labeled serving — roughly 3.3 small cups of coffee. Within the Scoop Sense pre-workout database (0–400 mg per serving) that places it in the high stim tier. The FDA cites about 400 mg per day as an amount generally not associated with negative effects in healthy adults, and coffee, tea, and energy drinks count toward the same total.
Why does Alpha Lion SuperHuman Pre make my skin tingle?
The 3.2 g of beta-alanine. The prickling (paresthesia) in the face, neck, and hands is generally considered harmless, is dose-dependent, and fades on its own — typically within about an hour. Most beta-alanine studies use 3.2 g per day.
Does Alpha Lion SuperHuman Pre disclose every dose?
Yes — the label lists an individual amount for each ingredient, with no proprietary blends. That is what the "label fully disclosed" tag on Scoop Sense means, and it is what lets each dose be compared against the amounts used in published research.
Do the numbers for Alpha Lion SuperHuman Pre assume one scoop or two?
All figures on this page are per full labeled serving. The panel's footnote gives a total caffeine yield of 311mg per full 1-scoop (16.3g) serving from three sources: 275mg caffeine anhydrous, 30mg zumXR extended-release caffeine and 20mg zumXR delayed-release caffeine — roughly three cups of coffee..
