I quit drinking coffee and start drinking liquid guarana instead (Scitec Nutrition brand specifically). It's like legal cocaine. I'm using it for morning and early evening boost.
I replaced coffee and energy drinks with caffeine pills. Same (or better) results, no sugar.
Question: do you think this guarana drink is more powerful than coffee? It's quite common to see guarana drinks (mostly soda) here in Brazil, but I don't see them as energy drinks..
To be honest, I feel as I'm lacking energy for everyday activities.. Do you or anyone know whether any of these scitec nutrition products (or whey protein, etc) could help regarding energy? Or it's just for building muscles?
Guarana energy drinks and (for example Scitec) pure liquid Guarana are two different things, that's the reason I mentioned some brand. You need to try pure guarana. For me it's like 5-coffees at one 40ml shot, few hours lasting effect and no shaking. But be careful, you can overdose pretty quickly (start with recommended dosage on package and gradually add few milliliters each day to find your optimal/maximal dosage).
