The 15.47 mg blend
SodaBurn Formula: What a 15.47 mg Proprietary Blend of 21 Names Means
The SodaBurn formula holds a proprietary blend: one total of 15.47 mg per 1 ml for 21 named ingredients. The label prints no amount for any single name. By FDA's order rule, the name in place n weighs at most 15.47 divided by n mg, so the last, L-carnitine HCl, is at most 0.74 mg.

The blend
What is the SodaBurn proprietary blend?
The SodaBurn proprietary blend is a group of 21 ingredients listed under one total, 15.47 mg per 1 ml. A proprietary blend is a mix whose recipe is the maker's own. The label shows the names and the sum, not the split.
Chromium (as chromium picolinate) sits outside the blend with its own amount, 7 mcg (NIH ODS, Chromium). So the panel has 22 lines, and only one of them has a printed amount for a single name.
A blend is legal. It does limit what you can check. You cannot tell if a name is present at a useful amount, or only as a trace.
The order rule
How much of each name is in the blend amounts?
No one outside the maker can tell, because the label prints no amount for any single name. What the label does give is an order, and FDA rules say that order runs from the heaviest name to the lightest (21 CFR 101.36, Proprietary blends).
That makes a ceiling. The name in place n weighs at most 15.47 divided by n mg per 1 ml. The first name, maca root extract, could be almost all of the blend, and must be at least 0.74 mg. The last name, L-carnitine HCl, is at most 0.74 mg.
Tap a bubble to read one ceiling. Then flip the switch to see an even split, which is only one way the total could be shared.

Order and total come from the printed panel text quoted in the brief. Names are listed by descending weight (21 CFR 101.36, Proprietary blends), so the n-th name weighs at most 15.47 divided by n. The label prints no amount for any single name. Orange bubbles are plant extracts, teal are amino acids and related names, lime is other.
Treat every number as arithmetic, not as a measurement. We never write that the bottle "contains" a given amount of any name.
The ceilings
Which names could weigh the most in the SodaBurn formula?
The first five names hold the biggest ceilings. Together with the order, they show how the total thins out down the list.
| Place | Name | Most it could weigh per 1 ml |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Maca root extract | 15.47 mg |
| 2 | African mango seed extract | 7.74 mg |
| 3 | Grape seed extract | 5.16 mg |
| 4 | Guarana seed extract | 3.87 mg |
| 5 | Eleuthero root extract | 3.09 mg |
| 7 | Green tea leaf extract | 2.21 mg |
| 21 | L-carnitine HCl | 0.74 mg |
All 22 lines, with their study amounts, are in the table on the ingredients page.

See packsLabel vs studies
Is the 15.47 mg blend big enough to match the studies?
No, based on the arithmetic. Where we found a study amount, the most a name could weigh is a tiny part of it.
Green tea leaf extract is at most 2.21 mg, against a safe-intake figure of 338 mg of EGCG a day (Hu 2018, Green tea safety review). Guarana is at most 3.87 mg, against 400 mg of caffeine a day, the level FDA does not link to harm in most healthy adults (FDA, How much caffeine is too much). Guarana is not pure caffeine.
Both names contain caffeine, and the label does not print how much. Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you take a stimulant, diabetes medicine, blood thinners or blood pressure medicine.
FAQ
SodaBurn questions people ask
What is a proprietary blend?
A proprietary blend is a group of ingredients listed under one total weight, with no amount for each name. FDA rules say the names must be listed from heaviest to lightest (21 CFR 101.36, Proprietary blends).
How much is in the SodaBurn proprietary blend?
The label prints 15.47 mg per 1 ml for all 21 names together. No amount is printed for any single name. The first name could weigh most, and the last at most 0.74 mg.
Why do companies use proprietary blends?
Makers say a blend protects a recipe. The cost to you is that you cannot check whether any name reaches an amount a study used. A blend also lets a long list look larger than it is.
Is the SodaBurn blend dose enough to work?
We cannot say it is. No study tested this blend. For the names with a study amount, the most each could weigh is a small fraction of that amount.
Does SodaBurn list its ingredients in order of weight?
The label lists 21 names in a printed order, and FDA rules call for descending weight inside a blend (21 CFR 101.36, Proprietary blends). The order is the only clue to size that the label gives.
Can I ask the seller for the amount of each name?
You can ask the order desk at +1 (302) 200-3480, but the label does not print the split and our material has none. Be careful with any figure that has no lab report behind it.
