because it is a stimulant that is why. similar to cocaine and adderall not making you hungry. If you are bulking then dont fucking take it

Because it’s a stimulant and it increases dopamine and norephrinhprine

Dopamine acts as a way of signalling that you’ll get rewarded for eating the food and when it’s levels are increased you’re less focused on seeking that dopamine from eating.

Increased norepinephrine makes your body more alert and you focused on the surroundings and that makes eating less important/safe. Same way as stress lowers hunger

I could just say that it’s cuz it’s a stimulant but water is wet

It’s def a real effect but reactions very depending on the way your dopaminergic system works I think
