Sambazon’s new product “Amazon Energy” is a conscious alternative to the conventional overwhelmingly dizzying energy drink. It is organic and packed with antioxidant properties known for their anti-aging and overall health benefits. Superfoods and superfruits, such as acai, acerola, guarana, guayaki yerba mate, and green tea, are the ingredients of this drink. There are no refined sugars or artificial chemicals.
Many of Sambazon products’ main ingredient is Acai. This superfood is a berry that grows in the Amazon rain forest. Antioxidants are over 150 % higher in Acai berries than pomegranates and blueberries. Acerola is also known as an antioxidant that supports the delivery of Vitamin C efficiently (over 1000 % of RDA/can). Guarana helps improve metabolism, mental focus, and stamina.
In our e-weekly newsletter in March 08, we featured an article called, “Sports And Energy Drinks Highly Dangerous To Teeth,” One of the reasons that most sports and energy drinks are bad for your teeth is that the effects of acid and its buffering capacity are higher in conventional sports and energy drinks than other drinks.
Amazon Energy’s ingredients, such as green tea and yerba mate, are known to have alkaline effects on the body. Also, Amazon Energy’s sugar composition is much lower than conventional energy drinks, which makes the drink less acidic. For example, Red Bull contains 39g of sugar per can while Amazon Energy has 28g per can.
Conventional energy drinks most likely have pure caffeine as an ingredient. Amazon Energy’s caffeine is derived from yerba mate and green tea extract which are gentler on your system. If you need a boost for a busy day, why don’t you choose something good for your body and the planet?
