How do guarana capsules differ from coffee or energy drinks? — GUARANA-PAULINIA CAPSULES N100 - SWANSON (Guarana)

The manufacturer makes no direct comparison with coffee and energy drinks. According to the description, each capsule contains 500 mg of guarana seed powder (Paullinia cupana); the capsule shell also contains gelatine, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide, so the product cannot be called entirely “additive-free”. The product is intended for adults. Because of the gelatine, the capsules are not suitable for vegetarians.

The caffeine content is not stated on the product card. Guarana is generally known as a plant that contains caffeine (general information, not the manufacturer's words), so if you are sensitive to caffeine or drink a lot of coffee during the day, take the supplement with care and take your total caffeine intake into account.

Regimen according to the label: 1 capsule 2–6 times a day with water; do not exceed the recommended daily amount. If you take medicines or have a health condition, consult a doctor before use; the same applies during pregnancy and breastfeeding. If side effects appear, stop taking it and see a doctor.
