Guaraná is a creeping shrub native to the Amazon rainforest that produces clusters of small bright red fruit, the seed of which has been used by indigenous tribes for centuries to help to reduce mental fatigue, and to help maintain mental awareness. It gains its energizing benefits from a number of actives that are found in the seed. These include caffeine and two other stimulants -theophylline and theobromine. These stimulants are found in a complex named Guaranine that provides gentle stimulation over a period of several hours, without the peak and trough in energy that is associated with many sources of caffeine.

Usage

Dissolve between ½ teaspoon of powder into fruit juice or water and stir well. For best results add just a little liquid (i.e. juice or water) to the required amount of powder and mix into a ‘paste’ – then add this to the full volume of liquid. Repeat dose as required.

Ingredients
