If you’ve ever wondered how you’re this tired without doing anything… this one’s for you.
Welcome to Nothing to Hide: The Story Behind Our Ingredients.
In this series, we’re breaking down what’s actually inside each MDRN drink—one ingredient at a time. We’re doing this because we believe in transparency, and we know that trust isn’t something you get just by saying “clean label” on a package. Whether you’re here for the science, the plant-based ingredients, or just trying to feel better day to day, we’ve got you. No hype, no fluff—just honest explanations about what we use and why it matters.
There’s a specific kind of tired that sleep doesn’t fix.
You’ve felt it, right? That low, lingering heaviness where you’re doing everything “right"—eating well, getting rest, checking your boxes—and yet you’re still… off.
You hit a wall in the middle of the day. You lose your train of thought mid-sentence. You start wondering why everything feels harder than it should. You feel unmotivated, disconnected, and somehow both wired and exhausted at the same time.
If that rings any bells, it might be time to check in with your B12 levels.
What B12 Does (and Why You Feel It When You’re Low)
Vitamin B12 is one of those nutrients you barely hear about—until you’re running low. And then? It can impact everything.
It helps your body make red blood cells, which deliver oxygen everywhere it’s needed—especially to your muscles and your brain. 🫀🧠
Your brain alone uses about 1/5 of your body’s total oxygen supply. So when red blood cell levels drop, your brain is often the first to feel the effects—fog, fatigue, and mental misfires. 🌀
B12 also supports your nervous system, which directly shapes how you think, move, and feel.
And it plays a key role in turning the food you eat into energy your body can actually use. 🔋⚡
So when you don’t have enough, it doesn’t just show up as physical fatigue. It hits your brain, your focus, your motivation, your memory, your mood. You might feel foggy, unsteady, emotional for no reason. You might find yourself withdrawing from things that used to feel easy.
It’s subtle—until it’s not.
I’ve Been There Too
I’ve always been pretty intentional about my health. I’ve read the research, paid attention to how my body responds to different nutrients, and made a point to stay on top of things like B12—because I’ve seen firsthand how much it affects the way I feel.
So it wasn’t a major deficiency or some big crisis. But even with care and consistency, I’ve still noticed moments where my energy dips. My thoughts feel heavier. My fuse feels shorter.
It’s subtle, but real.
And when I double down on hydration and B12—especially in a form my body can actually use—I can feel the difference. I stay clearer, longer. I don’t bottom out mid-day. And I stop questioning whether I’m just doing life wrong. 🤔
Not All B12 Is Created Equal
There’s one more piece of this that most people miss: how your body absorbs B12 depends on the form.
MDRN uses methylated B12—the form your body can actually use without extra conversion. That’s especially important for people with genetic variations or digestive issues that make B12 absorption harder.
So if you’ve tried a B12 supplement in the past and didn’t feel a difference, it might not be because you didn’t need it. You may have just needed a version your body could recognize and absorb.
B6 and B12: Better Together
You might remember from the last post: B6 plays a key role in mood and brain chemistry. B12 picks up the baton and carries it the distance.
Together, they support your nervous system, help your body produce healthy blood cells, and assist in turning food into fuel. They’re like a good relay team—each one doing their part, but working best when they’re both in the race.
That’s why we included both in the MDRN formulation. It’s not about cramming a label full of trendy buzzwords—it’s about giving your body what it needs to feel stable, steady, and supported.
If You’ve Been Feeling Drained…
There’s a kind of exhaustion that sneaks up on you. You wake up already tired. You start forgetting small things, losing your focus mid-sentence. Some days you feel wired and restless, other days like you’re dragging your feet through fog. You try to power through, but your brain and body just won’t sync.
If any of that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you’re not doing anything wrong.
This isn’t about laziness. It’s not about motivation. And it’s definitely not “all in your head.”
Sometimes, it’s your body gently asking for more support. Not punishment. Not discipline. Just the basic nourishment it needs to keep you feeling like yourself. 🍽️😋
When you're low on something essential—like B12—it doesn’t always announce itself loudly. It shows up quietly, in your attention span, your mood, your resilience. And once you understand that, you can start meeting your body with more curiosity… and a lot more compassion.
One Last Thing
You don’t have to wait for a full-on crash to start paying attention. The truth is, most of us walk around just a little bit depleted—and we get used to that feeling. We normalize it.
But what if you didn’t have to?
What if better hydration, a few clean nutrients, and a small morning ritual could help you feel more like yourself again?
That’s what MDRN was built for. Every flavor—like Mango Pineapple, White Peach, or Strawberry Kiwi—is designed to taste great and give your body what it’s really asking for: balance, clarity, and steady support throughout your day. 🍍🍑🥝
And B12?
It’s one of those tiny things that quietly helps power the whole system—energy, focus, stamina, mood. Not a cure, not a miracle. Just something that helps you feel like you again.
Because some days, your energy levels deserve a little more than coffee and blind hope. 🔋☕
