Guarana

Guarana is a shrub growing in rainforests. It has large leaves, flowers, and orange reddish fruits of a size of a coffee berry. However, the black seeds, which give the fruit an eyeball-like look, contain three times more caffeine than coffee beans, making Guarana a great energizer.

Guarana has a history in South American cultures in which the seeds were pounded into a fine powder and made into tea.

The effect of Guarana is energizing and it's known to improve concentration. Due to improved memory, alertness and mood, Guarana is an useful herb especially when used for studying and working. Because Guarana causes the body to consume a lot of energy it is also used for losing weight.

Nowadays Guarana is a popular ingredient in many soft- and so-called energy drinks. Because Guarana is assimilated better and more evenly in the body it does not cause similiar jittering compared to coffee.
