Guarana is a climbing plant in the maple family, Sapindaceae, native to the Amazon basin and commonly found in Brazil. Guarana has large leaves and clusters of flowers, and is best known for the seeds from its fruit, which are about the size of a coffee bean.

Used for centuries by Brazilian tribes for it's healing and energy-boosting properties, guarana seed is a common ingredient in sports and energy drinks. In addition to its ability to reduce fatigue, it can also improve mental performance and focus.

Sinetrol citrus extract is a patented, proprietary blend of several polyphenolic compounds extracted from various citrus fruits including orange, blood orange, and grapefruit. It combines these bioactive polyphenols, which include narigin, hesperedin and neohesperidin, with guarana extract – whose caffeine content can boost energy and focus. Sinetrol is designed to reduce body fat levels, enhance Lipolysis, reduce waist and hip circumference, and reduce oxidative stress and inflammation. Sinetrol helps to reduce body fat percentage by inhibiting the PDE-4 enzyme, which is responsible for the breakdown of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). When a hormone like adrenaline interacts with fat cells, cAMP ensures the proper signal is sent to the enzymes- triggering the release of fatty acids from the cells into the bloodstream to be used for energy. Higher concentrations of cAMP mean more efficient fatty acid release, resulting in improved fat burning and an increase in energy levels.
