Guaranà Powder from Brazil

Guaranà is an energizer, a long-lived food, much older than maca and ginseng. It is obtained from the grinding of the seeds of the plant Paullinia Cupana, native to the Amazon rainforest, belonging to the Sapindaceae family, which produces a very fine powder, a concentrate of nutrients and energizers thanks to the content of guaranine, that is caffeine, which gives it stimulating properties. Guaranà derives its name from one of the Guaranì tribes, for whom the plant was sacred and mainly used as a tonic.

Guaranà: Properties and Benefits

Guaranà is an energizer comparable to coffee, rich in guaranine, an alkaloid similar to caffeine, which the plant, as always in these cases, uses to defend itself from its small predators. While guaranine can be harmful to small insects, for us it is an excellent tonic and helps us better cope with stress, chronic fatigue, and depression. Studies on the plant highlight further potential: as an antioxidant and anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, modulator of adipogenesis, and improves cognitive performance.

The indigenous people considered it an elixir of long life, using it to support the body and obtain a tonic and stimulating effect to improve physical performance, for hunting, but also to combat intestinal problems and menstrual pain. The energy supply of guaranà has been recognized since ancient times.

Guaranà: Contraindications

What is guaranà for? It is a powerful energizer and rich in caffeine, therefore, just like coffee, its consumption must be moderate and doses should not be exaggerated, and its consumption should be avoided at dinner.
