Guarana is a South American climbing plant belonging to the genus of trees and shrubs called Maple. This plant is common around the Amazon and very present in Brazil. The fruit of the guarana plant is being used in that country to produce a diversity of soft drinks and beverages, having the double caffeine content of the coffee bean. Other nutrients that are contained in the seed besides caffeine are protein, fat and starch, but also adenine, choline, guanine, resin, tannin and xanthine, just to name a few. The cognitive effects of guarana are well documented, but the appetite suppressant qualities of guarana are relatively new. A study has proven that a combination of yerba mate, guarana and damiana leads to a tenfold weight loss quantity when compared with a placebo.

Methylxanthines (Caffeine) are derived by the methylation of xanthine; an example is caffeine. These chemicals have a number of important effects on human physiology. They are diuretics, meaning that they increase urine excretion. They have nootropic effects because they increase memory and learning. Clinically they are used to ease the breathing process and they serve as a stimulant of cardiac muscles and the central nervous system. The chemicals bind to the heart muscles and mimic the effects of the hormone epinephrine, increasing ATP production and the energy available for heart muscle contraction. Their long term use can however impair long term memory.

Theobromine- The bitter alkaloid found in chocolate is known as theobromine. It comes from the cacoa plant and is found in chocolate as well as chocolate free foods that are consist of theobromine. Theobromine belongs to the methylxanthine class of chemical compounds. It is found in the leaves of the tea plant, the kola or cola nut and acai berries. No bromine is present in theobromine, despite the name. The properties of theobromine are that it is souluble in water, is crystalline, is a bitter powder, is listed as white or colorless in color.

It is basically a xanthine having two methyl groups.

Theophylline is a drug which belongs to the xanthine family. These substances are aromatic in nature and consist of a purine ring which is substituted with different chemical groups at different carbon positions to form different compounds chemically. In case of theophylline the purine ring has one methyl group substituted at carbon number 1 and 3 and one oxygen atom substituted at carbon number 6 and 2. Theophylline was originally extracted from tea leaves and was initially used to increase the rate of urination (diuresis); later it found more uses as a drug because of its effects on the respiratory and circulatory systems. However, it has many side effects; therefore, presently it is prescribed quite judiciously.
