Properties

Guarana is a Brazilian plant originating from the Amazon basin. It is often also called the “elixir of youth” thanks to its beneficial effects. Amazonian tribes have used it for centuries against pain, to boost sexual appetite, as an energy bomb and to speed up the metabolism. It contains an impressive range of stimulants such as caffeine, theophylline and theobromine. Guarana can also boast antioxidants such as tannins, saponins and catechins.

Guarana is a climbing plant known for its red-and-black fruits, which resemble a human eye. The traditional use is to crush and grind the seeds, producing a bitter but effective powder.

Effects and benefits of Guarana

RICH IN ANTIOXIDANTS

Guarana has a similar antioxidant profile to green tea. Antioxidants are important because they neutralise potentially harmful molecules called free radicals. These molecules can cause damage related to ageing, heart disease, cancer and other illnesses. The antioxidant properties of guarana may fight the symptoms of cancer and reduce the risk of heart disease and skin ageing.

REDUCES FATIGUE AND IMPROVES CONCENTRATION

Guarana is known for its presence in many energy drinks. It is an excellent source of caffeine, which helps you maintain focus and mental energy.

In fact, guarana seeds can contain four to six times more caffeine than coffee beans. Guarana reduces fatigue and is a good helper both for studying and for sport. Caffeine blocks the effects of adenosine, a compound that makes you feel sleepy, and helps the brain to relax.

HELPS WITH MEMORY AND LEARNING

Exams just around the corner and you still have several pages left that you just can't seem to memorise? Guarana is just for you. The effects of guarana are quite often described as a mildly euphoric “remedy” against procrastination and the best “cheat sheet” during a test.

HELPS IN THE FIGHT TO LOSE WEIGHT

It is estimated that one in three Americans is obese. Obesity is associated with many chronic diseases including heart disease, diabetes and cancer. Guarana has several properties that help with weight loss. Firstly, guarana is a rich source of caffeine, which can increase your metabolism by 3–11% within 12 hours. A faster metabolism means that your body burns more calories at rest. It has also been found to suppress the genes that promote the production of fat cells and to support the genes that slow it down. More studies are, however, needed.

RELIEVES CHRONIC DIARRHOEA AND TREATS CONSTIPATION

Guarana has been used for centuries as a natural tonic for the stomach to treat digestive problems such as chronic diarrhoea and constipation.

Low doses of guarana do not contain much caffeine, so they are more likely to have an anti-diarrhoeal effect. High doses provide more caffeine and may have a laxative effect.

STRENGTHENS THE HEART

Guarana may reduce the risk of heart disease in two ways.

Firstly, the antioxidants in guarana appear to aid blood flow and may prevent the formation of blood clots.

Secondly, studies have shown that guarana may reduce the oxidation of “bad” LDL cholesterol. Oxidised LDL cholesterol can contribute to the build-up of plaque in your arteries.

MAY PROVIDE PAIN RELIEF

Historically, guarana was used by Amazonian tribes as a painkiller.

Guarana's pain-relieving properties are due to its high caffeine content.

Caffeine plays a role in treating pain because it binds to and blocks adenosine receptors.

MAY IMPROVE THE APPEARANCE OF THE SKIN

Thanks to its strong antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, guarana is popular in the cosmetics industry as an ingredient in anti-ageing creams, creams, soaps and hair products.

HAS ANTIBACTERIAL PROPERTIES

Guarana contains many compounds that can suppress or destroy harmful bacteria.

Guarana may suppress the growth of bacteria that can cause dental plaque and tooth decay.

MAY PROTECT AGAINST AGE-RELATED EYE DISORDERS

Guarana contains compounds that fight oxidative stress, which is a major risk factor for age-related eye disorders such as macular degeneration, cataracts and glaucoma.

WHEN THE RECOMMENDED DOSE IS FOLLOWED, THERE IS NO RISK OF SIDE EFFECTS

Caffeine overdose is not common, but with a higher-than-recommended intake it is certainly not out of the question. The main symptoms are above all insomnia, sleep disorders, but also mood changes or headaches. Due to the high concentrations of caffeine present, Guarana capsules should not be taken by pregnant and breastfeeding women, nor by children. The same also applies to people with cardiovascular problems and high blood pressure.
