The Science Behind Clutch

A carefully formulated, science-backed blend built for high-performance moments.

Developed over three years and more than 40 prototypes, each ingredient was methodically tested and refined. Created in collaboration with a leading food scientist to achieve THE optimal balance of focus, energy, and smooth performance.

Peer-reviewed research shows that chewing increases arousal and alertness while improving motor control, effects that can lead to measurable improvements in cognitive performance. In simpler terms: studies show chewing gum improves reaction time and decision-making speed.

Gamers are constantly searching for any edge to win, and this is one that’s scientifically proven to be significant.

Our Story

Clutch was born during a 2am gaming sesh and built through nearly three years of research and formulation. Founded by Zach and Jordan, best friends for over a decade, it grew out of a shared love of competitive gaming and the grind.

After noticing faster reaction times while chewing gum and diving into the science, we realized gum was the optimal way to deliver clean energy. Made with best-in-class ingredients, including lutein for long screen sessions, Clutch is built by gamers, for gamers.
