Problem 1
2 in 5
Americans have trouble swallowing a tablet or capsule.
Drawn as 5 figures, 2 filled: the 2 in 5.
Is there a capsule you have to talk yourself into?
Where the FDA figure comes from
Americans have trouble swallowing a tablet or capsule. FDA’s own wording is “as many as”, so that is its ceiling and not its average.
FDA, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, “Size, Shape, and Other Physical Attributes of Generic Tablets and Capsules: Guidance for Industry”, June 2015, §II.A.1: the problem “may affect as many as 40 percent of Americans”. Among those affected the same page reports 8% have skipped a dose and 4% stopped a course of medicine. Independently, Schiele et al., European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology 2013;69, pages 937 to 948 put it at 37.4% of 1,051 patients on a solid oral medicine, of whom 70.4% had never raised it with a doctor.

Problem 2
3 in 5
Americans are concerned about how much sugar they eat.
Drawn as 5 figures, 3 filled: the 3 in 5.
Do you turn the packet over and read the sugar line?
Where the survey figure comes from
Americans are concerned about how much sugar they eat. The question was about their diet. Nobody has asked them about a supplement.
IFIC, “2025 Food & Health Survey: A Focus On Sugars & Sweeteners”, December 2025, question SW1: 63% extremely or somewhat concerned about the amount of sugar they consume. n = 3,000 US adults aged 18 to 80, fielded 13 to 27 March 2025 by Greenwald Research, weighted to the 2024 Current Population Survey. Every response option in that module reads “foods and beverages”, so the figure ends there.

Problem 3
98 in 100
gummy supplement labels print a calorie figure: 2,965 of the 3,007 on market in NIH’s label database, full export dated 2026-01-10.
Drawn as 100 tiles, 98 filled: the 98 in 100.
When did you last read the back of a supplement, not the front?
Where the census figure comes from
gummy supplement labels print a calorie figure: 2,965 of the 3,007 on market in NIH’s label database, full export dated 2026-01-10. That is 98.6%, rounded down.
NIH Office of Dietary Supplements, Dietary Supplement Label Database. Every label the database records as Gummy or Jelly and on market, no other filter: 3,007 of them, all counted, none sampled. The median is 15 calories per labeled serving, and a labeled serving there is usually two gummies. This counts labels rather than people, and no brand is named.
-
Problem 4
27 in 100
supplement labels in the formats people take instead (capsule, tablet, softgel, powder, gummy) declare at least one blend: a group of ingredients under one name.
Drawn as 100 tiles, 27 filled: the 27 in 100.
Could you say how much of anything is in the one you take now?
Where the label count comes from
supplement labels in the formats people take instead (capsule, tablet, softgel, powder, gummy) declare at least one blend: a group of ingredients under one name. 26,479 of the 97,137 on market in NIH’s label database, full export dated 2026-01-10. That is 27.3%.
NIH Office of Dietary Supplements, Dietary Supplement Label Database. Every on-market label the database records as Capsule, Tablet or Pill, Softgel Capsule, Powder, or Gummy or Jelly: all 97,137, all counted, none sampled. A blend is the database’s own structured category for a row that names a group of ingredients and carries one amount for the group. That is legal: under 21 CFR 101.36(c) the names go in descending order by weight, one total weight for the blend, and no individual amount for the other dietary ingredients in it. Vitamins and minerals still have to be declared separately. This counts labels rather than people, and no brand is named.
None of these figures is a measurement of a XYNE strip, and none of them is evidence that a strip works better than anything else.
How each figure was counted
Two of them count people and two count labels. A better-than claim would need a head-to-head test against another format, and nobody has run one.
How we solve this
So we put the dose on a film.
Pullulan: the first name on every one of our Other Ingredients lines, and the strip itself. A thin dissolvable film with the actives carried in it. There is no capsule around it and nothing to stir into a glass.
Film
Pullulan
Three glucose units α-1,4, joined to the next three α-1,6. Cellulose fills out the base on all eleven, pectin on five, and on four tins of eleven, mannitol.
Flavor
Steviol glycosides
Stevia, on all eleven: steviol with glucose attached. The panel does not say which of the seven glycosides, so the drawing does not either.
Actives
The only part that changes
Pullulan and stevia are on all eleven tins. This is what changes. No active is on all eleven, so there is nothing here to draw. Bone Support's two weigh 0.17 mg together; Intimate Vitality's three weigh 120 mg.
The three come off the Other Ingredients line printed on all eleven panels. The flavors themselves are named there and nothing more. The structures are simplified skeletal diagrams, not assay results.
Open the tin.
Thirty strips, flat, in something that fits a coat pocket. Nothing to measure and nothing to pour.
Put one on your tongue.
Dry fingers help. It is a film, and it will stick to a wet one. Then go back to whatever you were doing.
About thirty seconds later, it is gone.
That is what a strip does on a tongue, and it is the same on all eleven formulas. Dissolving is the only thing we say about the format, because it is the only part of it you can watch happen.
The rest of what is printed
The chocolate is doing a job.
Seven flavors across eleven tins, each printed in the Other Ingredients line of the tin it is in. The flavor is there to cover what the actives taste of. We would rather write that down than pretend it is a feature.
-
Seven flavors, eleven tins.
Each one is named in the Other Ingredients line of the tin it belongs to, the same as the film and the sweetener.
-
Sweetened with stevia.
Steviol glycosides are on all eleven panels. Monk fruit extract is on six of them: Cognitive Relax, Mushroom Focus, Probiotic + Metabolism, Iron, Beauty + Collagen and Intimate Vitality. Those are the only six tins we say it about, and there is no sugar on any of the eleven.
-
A strip weighs 100 to 290 milligrams.
That is the whole strip: film, flavor, sweetener and the actives together. All eleven certificates report an average strip weight, and the spread is nearly threefold: Bone Support is the lightest at 100.30 mg, Cognitive Relax the heaviest at 290.30 mg. The lightest tin in the range carries two actives that come to 0.17 mg between them, so almost all of what you are holding is the film carrying them.
-
What we have not measured.
No sensory panel has been run on these formulas. Customers have written reviews and each formula's page carries its own, but a review is one person's account of one tin, not a taste test. So we name the flavor and stop. Telling you what you will make of it would be a claim we have not earned.
On the back of the tin
A label is allowed to tell you less. We tell you more.
Under 21 CFR 101.36(c) a supplement may group its actives into a proprietary blend and print one weight for all of them together. The names have to be there, in order of predominance. The individual amounts do not. There is no blend in any of the eleven formulas, and this is what our labels print instead.
-
35 actives. 35 carry a number.
Every active in the eleven formulas, printed with the amount that is on its tin. Not one of them is pooled into a proprietary blend, and not one of them is left without a figure.
-
The film and the flavor, too.
Not actives, still printed. Mannitol is printed on the four tins that carry it. A label is only worth reading if it is the whole label.
-
17 rows carry a link.
Where an NIH fact sheet or a paper exists, it is linked. The other 18 say so. A link points at the public record for a substance, never at what a tin will do for you.
What we can actually show you
The label is the claim.
All eleven certificates are published: every dose claimed, beside the dose measured, on each formula's own page. Ten of them name the lot they cover, and Iron's batch code is malformed, so its page names none and says why. Where a certificate has a problem, the page says so in words rather than leaving a blank: four of the eleven carry a stated qualification, printed with the table.
Every active, with its amount. No proprietary blends.
101.6%
of the melatonin the label claims, found in the lot
Sleep Strips, lot UPD2501. 1 mg claimed, 1.016 mg measured. Its own page carries the whole table, active by active.
11
formulas, every active and its dose on the label
No proprietary blends anywhere in the range. Check any tin against its page.
4
of the eleven certificates carry a stated qualification, printed with the table
All eleven certificates are published, each transcribed on its own page, label claim beside measured result. Ten of them name the lot they cover; Iron's batch code is malformed, so its page names none. Four of the eleven carry a stated qualification beside the table: Beauty + Collagen's collagen row came back above its stated range; Bone Support's two figures are duplicated on Beauty's certificate and we have asked the manufacturer to re-state both; Probiotic's certificate specifies a different organism in its identification row; Iron's batch code is malformed and is not cited. This figure moves when a certificate does, and not before.

Sent a tin, filmed it themselves
One strip at a time.

Where this came from
He built it for himself first.
Four things Brandon could not get past, and what each one made him do about it.
-
What stopped him
Capsules were never going to happen.
A severe gag reflex, and no smaller size and no bigger glass of water ever made any difference to it.
What he did
So he stopped looking for a smaller pill.
He had a film made instead: about the size of a stamp, laid on the tongue, with nothing in it to swallow.
-
What stopped him
A scoop stirred into water was not the way round it.
He is hard to please on taste, and a shaker bottle is a thing you have to own, carry and wash before any of it happens.
What he did
So there is nothing to mix.
No scoop, no shaker, no second thing to buy. Thirty strips in a tin that fits in a pocket.
-
What stopped him
He keeps sugar out of what he buys.
That was already his rule before any of this existed, and it took most of the shelf out of the running.
What he did
So none of the eleven formulas has any.
Whatever sweetens a tin is printed in its own Other Ingredients line, on the tin and again on the page it is sold from.
-
What stopped him
He never saw a result from a proprietary blend.
A blend prints one total for a group of actives, so a person can read the whole line and still not know how much of anything is in there. The missing number was the part he objected to.
What he did
So every amount is printed.
Every active in the line carries its own figure, on the tin and again on the page it is sold from. What that gets a reader is the amount, and only the amount. Whether a given amount does anything for a given person is a separate question, and nothing here answers it.
A strip is a format, not a treatment for anything. Trouble swallowing is a matter for a doctor, and nothing here is offered as a remedy for it.

These are our picks, not a protocol. Grouping tins changes nothing about what is in them, and we are not claiming a bundle does anything. We are also too new to know what anyone else buys, so nothing here is ranked.
Energy, Sleep and Cognitive Relax each show up in more than one of these. Two of these days start early and have to end, and the tin with no caffeine in it suits two of the three people. We would rather repeat a tin than invent a difference that is not in it.
Every total above is the tins added up at list price. There is no bundle discount, because there is no bundle discount at checkout either, and a saving we cannot honor is worse than none. Subscribe & Save sits on each tin's own page.
Before you ask
The questions we actually get.
If an answer is not here, it is usually because we do not have it yet. Ask, and we will tell you which of the two it is.
Ask us anythingHow long does a strip take to dissolve?
About 30 seconds on your tongue, and that is true of all eleven formulas. There is no water in this story and nothing to swallow. How long it takes to dissolve is the only thing we will tell you about the format, because it is the only part of it you can watch happen.
What does a subscription cost?
Your first subscription order is $20.00, then $27.00/month. A one-time tin is $30.00. Skip a month or cancel from your account whenever you like.
Do the doses on this site match the tin?
They are meant to. Every active in all eleven formulas is printed here with the amount that is on its tin, and not one is left without a figure. Check them against the tin. That is what they are printed for. Tell us if one of them disagrees.
Do you publish lab results?
Yes, for all eleven. Each formula's label claims sit beside its measured results on its product page, with the band the certificate states beside every assay row that has one. The strip weight and the dissolving time carry no stated band, and print a dash. Four of the eleven certificates have a problem: one row above its stated range, one pair of figures duplicated across two certificates, one identification row naming a different organism, one malformed batch code. Each of those pages says so in words, above the table, rather than leaving the numbers out.
Is there sugar in a strip?
No sugar. Stevia does the sweetening on all eleven, with monk fruit on six of them. Yes, even the chocolate ones.
Are they vegan?
Six of the eleven are vegan-friendly, and Iron and Mushroom Focus are vegetarian. Three are not: Bone Support uses vitamin D3 from lanolin, Beauty + Collagen uses animal collagen, and Intimate Vitality contains oyster peptide, which is also a shellfish allergen. Each of those three says so on its own page, above the fold.
What if I do not get on with them?
Unopened tins come back within thirty days for a full refund. If a tin turned up damaged, tell us and we will replace it or refund it.
