Guarana Capsules

Q: What is guarana?

Guarana (botanical name: Paullinia cupana) is a red fruit from South America belonging to the soapberry family. The indigenous peoples of the Amazon have used it for centuries. Its unusual appearance is characteristic: the burst-open fruit capsule with its dark seed resembles human eyes – hence its South American name, “fruit like the eyes of the people”.

Q: What is the difference between guarana and coffee?

Guarana contains 4–8% caffeine – significantly more than coffee beans (1.3%). The decisive difference, however, is the release: thanks to the high proportion of plant fibres and raw plant material, the caffeine is absorbed by the body more slowly and continuously – no sudden spikes, but a steady effect over several hours. A popular alternative for people who do not tolerate coffee well.

Q: When does the effect of guarana set in and how long does it last?

The effect of guarana typically sets in around 45 minutes after intake and lasts up to 6 hours. Unlike coffee, which works quickly and wears off just as quickly, guarana builds up its effect slowly. Practical for long working days, intense training or travel – ideally taken not too late in the afternoon so as not to disturb your night's sleep.

Q: What should you keep in mind when taking guarana?

Guarana is a natural but potent source of caffeine. Stick to the recommended daily dose stated on the tin – just as with too much coffee, cola or energy drinks, an overdose can lead to sleep problems or restlessness. Not suitable for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women. If you have high blood pressure or heart problems, talk to your doctor first.

Guarana Kapseln Dose – 200mg natürliches Koffein

About the product

In the Amazon region, indigenous peoples have been using the guarana berry for centuries – long before energy drinks existed. Its secret: guarana naturally contains caffeine that is bound to tannins, which means it is released more slowly than the caffeine in coffee.

What makes our Guarana Capsules special:

One capsule provides 500 mg of guarana extract plus additional caffeine – 200 mg of caffeine in total, roughly the equivalent of two cups of coffee. The difference: no sugar, no acid, no energy-drink taste – and just one capsule a day.
