Frequently asked questions

What is guarana?
Guarana is a plant native to the Amazon whose seeds are one of the richest natural sources of caffeine. It has been used for centuries as a natural energy source and is valued for delivering a smoother, slower-release lift than coffee.
Is guarana better than coffee for energy?
Many people find guarana energy feels smoother and steadier than coffee because its caffeine releases more gradually, with less of a spike and crash. Both contain caffeine, so it comes down to how your body responds.
How long does guarana stay in your system?
Caffeine from guarana has a half-life of about 4–6 hours in most adults, so the effect tapers off over the hours after a serving. Metabolism, body weight, and caffeine sensitivity all influence how long you feel it.
What is natural or plant-based caffeine?
Natural caffeine comes from plants such as guarana, coffee, and tea rather than being made synthetically. Mana Rush uses guarana, one of the most caffeine-dense plants, for about 200 mg of natural caffeine per serving with zero sugar.
How do I use Mana Rush guarana powder?
Mix one scoop into cold water, sparkling water, or a smoothie — it dissolves in about 30 seconds. Use a full glass for steady energy or 60–80 ml for a concentrated shot. Start with one serving per day and adjust to taste and tolerance.
