Guarana Powder Organic 125 g

Organic guarana powder

In Brazil, guarana is of great significance, as it is considered an elixir of life; the locals associate it with strength, resilience and longevity, whilst for women it helps achieve soft skin free from cellulite and wrinkles.

Guarana is very rich in nutrients. Powerful antioxidants, or anti-ageing agents, are phytochemicals, which help to slow down, prevent or even halt numerous diseases. Guarana contains a compound that aids fat burning and, in some preparations, is also used for weight loss and against cellulite; this compound is theobromine.

Guaranine is a compound that is equivalent to caffeine; the only difference between them is that it is not water-soluble and is released very slowly into the bloodstream. Its effect lasts for around 6 hours, providing a more pleasant sensation and a longer-lasting effect than a stimulant. Guaranine reduces appetite and physical and mental fatigue, has a stimulating effect on our central nervous system and, unlike caffeine, has no side effects.

Guarana should be consumed in very small doses, as it contains twice as much caffeine as coffee itself, which means it is also an excellent substitute for coffee.

Guarana (Paullinia cupana) is a popular native plant that thrives only in parts of the Amazon rainforest, in Brazil and Venezuela. It is a creeping evergreen shrub, which is particularly popular because of its reddish-brown fruits, which resemble coffee beans in shape and colour, whose interiors contain black seeds, surrounded by a white coat.
