What it is
Guayusa is a caffeinated leaf from a tree native to the Amazon rainforest. The leaves are typically dried and then brewed to make a tea, similar to how black or green tea is prepared. It contains caffeine and antioxidants.
Why it's used
Guayusa is used as a natural source of caffeine and flavor in beverages like teas, sparkling drinks, and energy drinks. Manufacturers use it to provide a stimulating effect and a unique, slightly sweet, earthy taste.
Health notes
Guayusa is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It contains caffeine, which can have stimulant effects. JECFA has evaluated caffeine and established an acceptable daily intake. Evidence on the long-term health effects of guayusa consumption at typical intake levels is limited.
Allergen info
Guayusa is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
