9. Q#3: Which is a natural source of caffeine?
• Quality and composition of the
caffeine source are as important as
the concentration of caffeine
Example: Guarana seeds contain 4-6% caffeine – more than
any other plant – but what is the risk of ingredient
adulteration? Does the guarana manufacturer have food
safety and quality controls in place? These are questions
ALL food and supplement manufacturers must answer for
themselves.
