Guaraná, the slow-release caffeine from the rainforest

Guaraná, das Slow Release Koffein aus dem Regenwald

Imagine there was a natural caffeine source that lasts much longer and is much more digestible than regular caffeine... Sometimes life is like a wish concert and nature provides the overture because this source actually exists - found in the depths of the rainforest.

Natural Slow Release Caffeine vs. Regular Caffeine

You surely know the situation: you're tired, find it hard to concentrate, and just can't get going. A cup of coffee or an energy drink is needed quickly. The effect of regular caffeine kicks in quickly, but its effect is usually short-lived. As quickly as the effect sets in, it also fades away.

It's different with so-called Slow Release Caffeine (SRC), extracted from the seeds of the Guarana plant. Although researchers are slowly decoding its full composition and effects, one thing is already known: Guarana far surpasses the effects of coffee beans or synthetic caffeine and even astonishes scientists.

 

Guarana - The God Seed from the Amazon

For a long time, the unique effects of the Guarana plant were known only to the South American indigenous people of the Guarani. The plant owes its name to this tribe.
Just looking at it suggests that there is something very special about this plant native to the Amazon because when the fruits of the soapberry family, which can grow as a climbing shrub or liana up to 12 meters, ripen and burst open, they look like "eyes of the forest."

The Guarani discovered early on that the ground seeds of the fruits had a positive effect on body and mind and attributed them with strengthening and stimulating properties. The indigenous people also call Guarana "wara," which translates to "fruit of youth," and many legends surround the plant. According to these, Guarana is a gift from the gods.

But what makes its effect different from regular caffeine?

Caffeine Liana with Natural Long-Lasting Effect

The Guarana seeds, from which the Guarana extract is obtained, contain 5-10 times higher caffeine concentration than coffee beans, previously mistakenly referred to as "guaranine."

In Guarana extract, caffeine is bound to tannins, plant fibers, and dietary fibers. These are broken down by the body gradually. This slow and continuous release of caffeine (slow release) provides a long-lasting invigorating effect on body and mind, lasting around 6 to 8 hours. Thus, it surpasses the duration of coffee and synthetic caffeine (e.g., from energy drinks) by far, as the following graphic shows:

Another fact that makes Guarana unique compared to coffee is that Guarana does not contain roasting by-products, which additionally stimulate the production of stomach acid. Guarana is therefore considered particularly digestible and stomach-friendly.

In addition to caffeine, Guarana also contains theophylline and theobromine. Both substances are responsible for a mood-enhancing effect.
