Guarana
Paullinia cupana
Guarana is a plant native to the Amazonian forest and is cultivated mainly in Brazil
The fruits of this plant are used in food supplements for its different properties.
Indeed, guarana is known to be the plant richest in caffeine (called guaranine), and therefore has properties similar to those of coffee.
Its main benefit is the stimulating effect that its consumption gives to the body, which improves physical and intellectual performance and reduces fatigue.
Guarana is also considered to be a remedy for headaches, intestinal disorders and high blood pressure.
Minerals and trace elements are contained in the fruit and seeds that are essential for sports recovery, for example, or for weight loss.
It is indeed advised for its actions promoting weight loss because it is known to be one of the best natural appetite suppressants and the guaranine present in its fruit helps to burn fat.
