Drink ingredients

Why reach for pills and artificial formulations if you’re tired? Nature offers you effective stimulants. We’re bringing you a unique composite of effective vegetal extracts – from Tribulus terrestris, Guarana and Chilli, plus enriched with the complex of B vitamins. From the very beginning we care that the Let’sGo drink is purely natural. We don’t use taurin, chemical preservatives, artificial sweeteners, seasoning additives, or artificial dyestuff substances.

Just think of how many synthetic substances your body has to process every day. So, have yourself a sip of pure wellness energy drink Let’sGo. Its unique formula was born in Slovakia, but Let’sGo has also seen a great deal of success abroad, thanks to its natural composition and favourable effects on health.

Tribulus Terrestris

A plant, known also as “goathead”, is native to tropical and moderate geographical zones. A few pieces can be found in Slovakia, too. This is an important species in phytogeographic terms, because the northern boundary of its natural occurrence runs through Slovakia. Many nations have used this plant to cure various diseases, so the plant is believed to be an excellent “panacea”. For example, Ancient Greeks used it as a diuretic and a substance for mood improvement. Indians recognised the plant for its effects on inflammations and diseases of the urinary tract. The Chinese administered tribulus terrestris for liver and kidney illnesses and for cardiovascular diseases. Tribulus terrestris was used pharmaceutically for the first time at the end of the 1980s by the Bulgarians. A product containing an extract from this plant was used to treat premenstrual and postmenopausal syndromes in women and andropausal syndrome in men. Research from various sources shows that tribulus terrestris increases levels of luteinising hormone in humans, a hormone which stimulates excretion of sex hormones, enhancing sexual desire. This is the reason why the plant is called also the “herbal Viagra”. Many scientific studies, with the participation of men over 50 year of age, prove that the plant is generally beneficial and effective for both mental and physical vigour. In addition to this, it helps to postpone the so-called “mid-life crisis”, which is manifested in symptoms such as putting on weight, poor libido, loss of juvenile vitality and attractiveness.

Guarana

Paullinia cupana is one of the most famous natural stimulants. Its origin can be found in South America, where native Americans found out that it can help them to effectively overcome periods of hunger, illness, and demanding physical work. Guarana’s advantage is that it doesn’t load up your stomach with toxic substances. Guaranine (which is a kind of caffeine) is found here in a natural form, easy to digest. Absorption of guaranine is slowed down by resins, which in turn has the effect of stimulation lasting up to six hours. If you overdose on caffeine from coffee, after two or three hours you’ll perhaps begin to notice signs of attenuation, jitters, insomnia, and your body’s exhaustion. This is not the case with guaranine. Given that guarana supports degradation of lactic acid, which in turn lowers muscle tiredness, and that’s why athletes like it. Also, it increases your body’s resistance to fatigue, stress and depression. It helps to improve blood circulation, and it stimulates your immune system. Along with all these positives, no negative side effects of guarana have been found.

Chilli

Chilli contains a substance named capsaicin, which is efficient in fighting stomach problems. Chilli helps the metabolism, lightens the vascular system and has stimulating effects on the mental state.

B Vitamins

All the vitamins from the B group are referred to collectively as a B-complex. These are water soluble vitamins essential for a properly functioning metabolism. The main sources of B vitamins are yeast, meat, cheese, whole-grain products, fibre and nuts. Vitamin B was discovered in 1912 by a Polish biochemist Kazimierz Funk in rice bran.

Vitamin B1

(Thiamine) Its main function is to metabolise carbohydrates, fats and alcohol into energy. It is needed especially at times of great physical strain and stress. Thiamine is not deposited in the body and its stores last for about 4 to 10 days. It is therefore necessary to supply the body with this vitamin regularly. Maybe you did not know that vitamin B1 level is reduced in your body if you drink coffee and tea in large quantities. Extreme Vitamin B1 deficiency is known as the beri-beri disease. In the beginning, the deficiency is manifested by fatigue, loss of appetite, later by depression, irritability and confusion resulting from neurological degenerative changes. You cannot overdose on vitamin B1 because the vitamin is soluble in water and excreted in urine.

Vitamin B6

Vitamin B6 called Pyridoxine is essential for proper functioning of the nervous and immune systems. It is important for the production of red blood cells and antibodies. It aids to cure skin affected by acne and it can help to control dandruff. Pyridoxine is used as a preventive and supportive agent in the treatment of neurological and rheumatic diseases. People with a high protein intake (such as professional sportsmen), women taking hormonal contraception, celiac patients and some chronically ill patients require vitamin B6 in higher quantities. Higher doses of this vitamin are used to treat anaemia and nerve disorders. The main sources of vitamin B6 are liver, pork, mackerel, eggs, yeast, bananas, cabbage, avocado, carrots, nuts, soya and offal. It is interesting that the vitamin B6 content is decreased by cooking. Deficiency of this vitamin is rare. Its symptoms include higher excitability of nerves and muscles, such as jerks and cramps, forgetfulness or mucous layer inflammation in the mouth.

Vitamin B12

You may know it as Cyanocobalamin. The body makes deposits of this vitamin and they are stored mostly in the liver, lasting for several years. It is important for the metabolism of sugars, fats and proteins. It is an essential part in the development of DNA, RNA and myelin (white matter enveloping nerve fibres). The body can absorb it only when bonded with a substance called glycoprotein developed in the stomach wall.

Animal products, such as offal, fish, eggs and dairy products are the only source of vitamin B12. A higher intake is recommended for pregnant and breast-feeding women and elderly people. It is also reported that the higher the age, the lower the ability of the organism to absorb vitamin B12 from food. Deficiency is rare and it can be found, for example, in vegans who completely excluded animal products from their diet. Once developed, the deficiency is manifested by anaemia, for example. A frequent symptom of deficiency of this vitamin is the thrush in the mouth and on the tongue.

Shake the drink before consumption. A sediment is not a defect, it is a common property of natural substances. The drink is best consumed after being cooled down. It is not recommended that children under 15, pregnant and breast-feeding women, diabetic patients, people sensitive to caffeine (natural caffeine content in one packaging is 50,4 mg) and people suffering from high blood pressure consume the Let'sGo energy drink. Let'sGo wellness energy drink is not a substitute for a varied diet; it is just a suitable supplement to it. People suffering from a fatigue syndrome should consult consumption of the Let'sGo energy drink with their doctor. Let'sGo energy drink is best within a year and a half from the date of production. The volume of one can is 250 ml.
