Synthetic vs Natural
Caffeine comes from plants but can also be produced in a laboratory.
Natural caffeine comes from plants and is found in many plants around the world. It comes from the seeds, leaves, bark and berries. I’m sure you can think of the most popular; coffee beans, kola nut, and cacao beans.
Synthetic caffeine is mainly found in foods and drinks. It absorbs through the digestive system faster than natural caffeine which causes a quicker spike but also a quicker crash.
The two types are hard to distinguish between because they are so similar. We recommend natural sources of caffeine, like Wellah's Perfect Pick-me-up, to ensure you’re putting good substances into your body. Our formula prevents you from experiencing a caffeine crash.
Caffeine Choices
When it comes to choosing your caffeine source as a woman, the options are endless, especially when it comes to workout supplements. Pre-workout can give you the jitters and be harmful if taken too much, and diet pills aren’t always as effective as you’d like.
