Zoom Energy Brew contains our proprietary blend of Green Tea extract and Guarana Seed extract.

Green Tea Extract: This has long been used by the Chinese as medicine to treat headaches, body aches, poor digestion and improve well-being and life expectancy. It is rich in bioflavonoids and one of its uses is fighting the free radicals in your body. Green Tea extract contains high levels of polyphenols (a bioflavonoid) and is also a rich source of EGCG (an antioxidant) that is over 200 times more potent that Vitamin E in fighting free radicals and pro-oxidants.

The EGCG in Green Tea extract protects against digestive and respiratory infections, blocks the actions of cancer-causing carcinogens, is anti-bacterial and also helps lower cholesterol levels.

Green Tea extract is also a common ingredient in many fat burners - it helps with thermogenesis and fat metabolism. It works without increasing the heart rate which is most often associated with fat burners. With Green Tea, dieters get the weight loss benefits without the jitters and other harmful side effects.

Guarana Seed Extract: This is an herbal stimulant containing a form of caffeine called guaranine. Guaranine is 2.5 times stronger that the caffeine found in coffee, tea and softdrinks. What makes guaranine unique from the caffeine found in beverages is its slower release. This is because the guarana seed is fatty (even in its powder form) and is not readily water-soluble. Therefore the body does not quickly absorb it.

Since the guaranine is released slowly, the energy boost that you experience is not like the sudden rush of coffee. Rather, it continues to escalate over hours.

While the caffeine you get from beverages provides a short-lived energy burst that overheats and excites the body, guaranine has a cooling action that revitalizes and relaxes. This is because guarana contains other components that modify the activity of this substance. The end result is more beneficial to the body than tea or coffee.

Caffeine accelerates the effectiveness of CLA, thus making CLA a more potent fat burner. Guarana has been shown to stimulate the migration of lipids so fat can be burned as energy. It is also an appetite suppressant.

Guarana aids in a temporary, natural increase in body temperature and metabolic thermogenesis through nutritional stimulation of the body's ß receptor pathway, which can induce the breakdown and release of stored body fat, thereby allowing stored fats to be turned into energy.

Thermogenesis refers to the body's production of heat, a normal part of metabolic processes. Thermogenesis can be enhanced by certain nutritional substances. When stimulated through appropriate dietary supplementation, thermogenesis is also a mechanism that increases metabolic rate. Stored body fat, if released and available for use, can provide the fuel for this increased metabolic rate. Other active constituents of guarana are theobromine and theophylline, which are called xanthines (a class of thermogenic substances found in coffee, tea and certain beans). They have some effect on increasing metabolic rate, suppressing appetite and enhancing both physical and mental performance. They also act as muscle relaxants and possess diuretic properties.

Guarana increases mental alertness, fights fatigue and increases stamina and physical endurance. It is reported to help overcome heart fatigue, to help detoxify the blood and is useful for flatulence and obesity. In body care products, it has been used for its toning and astringent properties, and in the treatment of cellulite.
