It does not contain gluten and GMOs. The dietary supplement offers numerous health benefits and contributes to maintaining a normal body weight.
Guarana, or Paullinia cupana, is a climbing plant native to the Amazon. It has been used for centuries by Brazilian tribes for its medicinal and energy-boosting properties. It also has an impressive antioxidant profile that includes catechins, saponins, theobromine, and tannins.
Guarana is known for its high natural caffeine content. The seeds of the plant contain 6% caffeine, which makes it 4-6 times more potent than coffee beans. For this reason, guarana is a common ingredient in sports and energy drinks. In fact, 70% of the plant's yield is used by the beverage industry. The remaining 30% is used to make dietary supplements.
Health benefits :
The caffeine in guarana works similarly to other caffeinated beverages by blocking adenosine, a neurotransmitter that relaxes the brain and makes you feel tired. However, unlike coffee, the caffeine extracted from guarana is released slowly, which keeps your energy levels high for a long time. In addition to reducing physical fatigue, guarana also improves your mental state.
The herb guarana contains caffeine and the related alkaloids theobromine and theophylline. These compounds can suppress appetite and increase weight loss. The effects of caffeine are well known and include central nervous system stimulation, increased metabolic rate, and a mild diuretic effect.
- Protection against cancer
Some promising studies have shown the anti-cancer effects of guarana. Guarana protects against DNA damage, inhibits the growth of cancer cells, and induces their death. Researchers suggest that this is due to the xanthines in guarana, which are compounds similar to caffeine and theobromine.
- Positive effect on the heart
Guarana is beneficial for the heart in two ways. First, the plant may reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke by preventing the formation of blood clots. Research suggests that caffeine and catechins have an effect on “platelet antiaggregatory activity.” The second way that guarana may benefit the heart is by reducing the buildup of plaque on artery walls by reducing the oxidation of LDL cholesterol.
Studies show that the antioxidant properties of caffeine protect cells from ultraviolet rays. This protects the skin from so-called photoaging.
Caffeine binds to and blocks adenosine receptors, two of which are responsible for stimulating the sensation of pain. Due to the high caffeine content in guarana, it may be useful for pain relief.
