Doctor's Statement on MACA
Also, in-depth analysis of Maca conducted in 1998 by Dr. Qun Yi Zheng and his colleagues at PureWorld Botanicals shows that Maca contains protein, carbohydrate, and an assortment of fatty acids.
These ingredients are common and nothing special. But, the investigators also discovered two groups of novel compounds, the macamides and macaenes. These agents are believed to be directly responsible for Maca's sex-boosting powers.

WHAT IS GUARANA?
Guarana is a natural herbal supplement and energy drink that will help you dance the night away. The refreshing properties of this energy drink have been enshrined in the folklore and customs of ancient Amazon tribes and have been medically recognised in the 21st Century. Guarana is the pure seed of the Paullinia Cupana vine - a climbing shrub found in isolated areas of the Amazon rainforest. The seed is about the size of a pea, looks like a brown pebble and has a slightly bitter taste. |
When dried and ground to a powder, guarana is mixed into energy drinks.
When consumed in its natural state, guarana powder provides a synergetic delivery of many nutritional compounds and trace elements to pleasantly and beneficially affect your total body system.
Guarana Naturale and Guarana Active contain nothing but the 100% authentic guarana seed fibre... unlike the derivatives used in other energy drinks and food products.
Guarana Naturale pioneered the introduction of guarana to the Australian menu when it was approved as a food product in 1993. Guarana Active was listed on the Australian Register as a complementary health medicine in 1994.
Pure guarana seed is efficiently digested so that its nutritional compounds and trace elements are rapidly distributed to the metabolism, providing an energy boost with numerous health benefits.
For example, this herbal supplement has traditionally been used to assist in the relief of various ailments such as stress and nervous tension, weight control, headaches and hangovers, and even menstrual pain.
The effects of guarana alkaloids and compounds are not the same as in coffee and other caffeine products.
Pure guarana seed is a powerful substance and you only need a small serving to obtain optimum results.
"Don't take guarana if you want to sleep, but if you want to dance..." ... Elle magazine |
Guarana vs coffee
A typical cup of strong coffee is prepared with 8 to 10 grams of ground coffee beans and contains about 310mg of caffeine plus other water soluble alkaloids and compounds.
A cup of coffee is really an extract and contains only the water soluble alkaloids that are found in the coffee bean.
A typical strong cup of guarana is prepared with only 3 to 4 grams of ground guarana seed and contains about 160mg of naturally occurring caffeine (as guaranine) plus other nutritional alkaloids and compounds found in the fibre of the seed.
These ingredients are released gently, giving you up to 5 hours of refreshing vitality.
No more than 3 to 4 grams of Guarana Naturale powder should be consumed at one sitting and guarana should not be used as a drink before intending to sleep.
Pure guarana powder is the ideal energy drink supplement to maintain stamina and ward off fatigue and tiredness. It is used by a broad cross-section of the community, including fatigue-sufferers, athletes and partygoers.
Guarana Naturale and Guarana Active are pure guarana powder and contain naturally occurring constituents which are common to tea, cola and cocoa.
These nutritional ingredients are released gently from the seed fibre.
Gauarana Naturale and Guarana Active are 100% NATURAL.
The medical effects of pure guarana seed powder are well documented from both folklore and research in the 21st Century. The stimulant effects of this rainforest plant were recognised in the western world during the late 1980s. As a result of observational studies, the beneficial effects of Guarana have become the subject of scientific research. Anecdotal evidence suggests the supplementary benefits of this energy drink include relief of mild anxiety, stress and nervous tension, weight control, temporary relief from headaches, and relief from menstrual pain. It's little wonder the Amazon Indians worshipped guarana as a "gift from the gods". |
MEDICAL INFORMATION
If guarana is used as an appetite suppressant for weight loss, it should be used in conjunction with a balanced low kilojoule/calorie diet.
People suffering cardiac disorders should exercise the same caution when using pure guarana seed as with other caffeine-based products such as tea, coffee and chocolate.
Guarana is generally regarded as safe by the US Federal Drug Authority (FDA) (GRAS 172.5100) (3,6).
Contra-Indications
Hypersensitivity to any component. Not recommended for children, pregnant and breast-feeding women.
