Science Reveals: Guarana in Coffee for High Performance Athletes
The Surprising Study Linking Guarana and Sports Performance
A Bridge between Science and Sport in your Cup of Coffee
In the demanding world of high-performance sports, every detail can make a difference. Nutritional science has discovered an unexpected ally: guarana. This ingredient, originally from the Amazon, is not only a stimulant, but also a cognitive enhancer. And now, this powerful seed is the star of our specialized coffees for athletes.
Unraveling the Power of Guarana in Athletes
An innovative study in the International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance examined how guarana affects athletic performance. Ten top-level modern pentathlon athletes participated in an experiment to evaluate the effects of guarana, along with carbohydrates and caffeine, on key aspects such as perceived effort and mental agility.
A Rigorous Performance Test
- Experiment Design: The athletes underwent four sessions, testing carbohydrates, caffeine, guarana and a placebo.
- Physical Test: Each session included a 40-minute treadmill run, followed by tests of shooting accuracy and cognitive performance.
- Shocking Results: Guarana significantly reduced athletes' perception of effort and improved information processing speed after exercise.
A Breakthrough in Sports Performance
The results of the study are clear: guarana has a significant effect on reducing perceived fatigue and increasing mental agility. This is crucial in sports where quick and accurate decision-making is essential.
Our High Performance Coffees
Relating these findings to our specialized coffees for athletes, guarana emerges as a key ingredient. Not only does it provide a dose of sustained energy, but it also improves cognitive aspects essential for athletes.
The Role of Coffee
By integrating guarana into our coffees, we are offering athletes another tool in their arsenal to maximize their performance. This is not just an energy drink; it is a support in their training and competition routine.
Conclusion
This study opens a window to new possibilities in the field of sports nutrition. Coffee with guarana is not just an option to start the day; it is a strategic choice for athletes looking to improve their performance in a comprehensive way.
