Hey, I’m Luc, Brewmaster at GURU, where we’ve been crafting natural energy drinks for 25 years. I have a PhD in Pharmacology and expertise in ethnobotany, which means I’ve spent years studying how natural ingredients affect the body. I get a lot of questions about what’s inside energy drinks, how different ingredients impact energy levels, and why organic, natural choices make a difference.
Let’s break down some of the most common questions I hear!
What’s REALLY in Your Energy Drink?
When you grab an energy drink, do you check the ingredient list? A lot of people don’t—and that’s where things get interesting. Some energy drinks are loaded with artificial sweeteners, preservatives, and synthetic caffeine, which can mess with your energy levels. At GURU, we keep it simple and natural—only organic, natural ingredients like green tea and ginseng to fuel you the right way.
Why Do Some Energy Drinks Make You Jittery and Then Crash?
Ever feel like you’re bouncing off the walls after an energy drink, only to crash hard a couple of hours later? That’s because a lot of them use synthetic caffeine, which hits your system fast and fades just as quickly. At GURU, we use natural caffeine from green tea. It absorbs gradually, so you get a smooth, steady boost—perfect for your morning workout or getting through the afternoon slump without the crash.
Can an Energy Drink Be Healthy?
A lot of people assume energy drinks are unhealthy—but it really comes down to what’s inside. Some brands pack their drinks with artificial sweeteners, preservatives, and way too much sugar. At GURU, we do things differently. We use organic, natural ingredients like green tea, guarana, and ginseng, so you get a natural energy boost without the junk.
Is Zero Sugar Always Better?
Going sugar-free sounds great, but not all zero sugar drinks are created equal. A lot of them use artificial sweeteners like sucralose or aspartame, which can mess with your metabolism. At GURU, we use organic, natural sweeteners instead—so you get a naturally sweet taste, without the weird aftertaste or artificial additives.
Why Choose an Organic Energy Drink?
When it comes to what you put in your body, quality matters. Conventional energy drinks often contain synthetic pesticides, artificial preservatives, and unnecessary chemicals. That’s why we choose organic—so you get clean, natural energy that supports your body, not works against it.
