This particular kind of pre workout supplement should not be dry scooped. It is a dry powder that is formulated to be mixed with water. Powder dry like this is not designed to absorb through buccal mucosa. If it was designed to be, then it would in fact, let the pre hit harder since it wouldn't go to the liver first to be broken down, that is, bypass first-pass metabolism. If that happened, the amounts of some key ingredients would likely be lower. Instead, by doing this, you're creating a choking hazard for yourself because of a troll and haha funny laughs at the expense of your own health. You likely can damage your lungs if you cough and breathe in enough powder because you tried this.
These cases are patients who I, or my colleagues have seen. They are de-identified and many instances have been presented in more depth in an academic setting. These videos are not individual medical advice and are for general educational purposes only. I do not give medical advice over the internet, see your physician in person for that.
