If you’re like most people, you probably start your day with a caffeinated boost. If your morning boost involves consuming energy drinks or supplements, than you’re probably consuming guarana, and you wouldn’t be alone. Guarana is actually one of the most popular forms of caffeine intake throughout South America. When you take a look at the health benefits and energy boost it provides, it’s not difficult to see why it’s growing in popularity. The first thing about guarana, medically known as Paullinia cupana, that makes it stand out is its stimulant properties. Guarana contains three to seven percent caffeine. Compare that to coffee, which contains between one to two percent caffeine. While the active ingredient in the guarana plant (guaranine) is chemically identical to caffeine, it has one huge difference. In its natural form, it is bound to the fiber of the guarana seeds. That means its stimulating component is released slowly, giving you up to five hours of refreshing vitality. However, it is important to note that concentrated guarana extract as used in most energy drinks has had most of the fiber removed and functions like purified caffeine. The energy boost form natural guarana is much different than what you get from caffeine. Gentler, slow acting, long lasting, no headaches and provides stamina, endurance and energy.Havana Nutrition products.

Long-lasting Energy, No crashes, No Withdrawal Headaches
I was looking for a natural replacement for drinking about six, 12-oz cans of Dr Pepper per day... I must say, this fits the bill! I take 1 pill in the morning and if I begin to lag a bit by 4-5 PM or I'm going to be out a bit later, I can cut a pill in half and take an extra half dose. Taking 2 full pills in a day is too much caffeine for me, but 1-1.5 is perfect. I do not drink any pop (soda) or coffee, no energy drinks or caffeinated tea. And if I wake up feeling that I don't need to take this for a couple of days (Let's be real, if I forget to take it) I have *No* withdrawal headaches even after missing 3 days!When I first stopped drinking the Dr Pepper and started taking Guarana Extract, I was terrified that I was going to trigger a migraine attack, since I was drinking so much Dr Pepper in order to control my migraines. I am happy to say that I had no withdrawal headaches at all after transitioning to Guarana Extract. In fact, I feel so much better because I don't experience peaks and crashes throughout the day, just steady, sustained focus and energy that lasts me about 7-8 hours. And since I started taking it over 5 weeks ago, I have not had a single migraine! This product is a major "Win" for me.The order arrived on time and intact, but I wished they had sent it in a box instead of a padded envelope... a trifling problem that does not impact the effectiveness or quality of the product. I will definitely order from Havana Nutrition again when I am running low.

All natural...I like it!
Great product compared to coffee or caffeine pills. Better on my stomach than coffee and I don't crash at all. It takes about an hour to start feeling the effects, but it's a smooth up and smooth down. No jolt like coffee or caffeine pills. I take one after breakfast, and one after lunch. I make sure not to take one past 4pm, because I have a hard time sleeping at 11pm.
