What Makes Guarana Different?
Wakefulness & Attention
Guarana has been studied for supporting concentration and alertness compared to coffee, with a more gradual release profile that many people find easier to tolerate.
Training & Endurance
As a natural source of caffeine alongside plant compounds (like theobromine and theophylline), guarana is commonly used to support perceived energy, mental acuity, and fat-utilization during exercise.
Memory & Study
Students and professionals use guarana to help with focus and recall during exam prep or deep work blocks.
Mood Support
Some research suggests guarana can positively influence mood and perceived well-being — a gentle lift without harsh stimulants.
Sustainable Sourcing from the Amazon
We prioritize ethical supply chains that support rainforest communities and encourage regenerative practices. Guarana is hand-harvested and grown in symbiosis with native trees, aligning income for growers with long-term forest health.
