What if you could have more energy, better mental clarity, and improved neurological function by consuming a drink? Sounds impossible, right?
Ārepa's New Brain Drinks
We all know that coffee, sugar and energy drinks are bandaid solutions, and often make us feel worse in the long run.
So, if you’re looking for a natural, scientifically proven method to boost your cognitive function (without caffeine!), then definitely try Ārepa’s new brain drinks!
The Ārepa Story
Ārepa, founded in Aotearoa New Zealand, explores the connections between nature, neuroscience and food technology. Their mission is to make brains work better using the world’s smartest brain foods.
Tthe Ārepa formula was created over 5 years; a patented blend of robust scientific evidence and plant-based superfoods.
When it comes to ‘enhancing’ cognitive performance, we tend to reach for caffeine, sugar, and energy drinks because they’re quick and easy. These short-term energy boosts leave us feeling tired, sluggish, unfocused and braindead when we rely on them all the time.Angus and Zac believe that bodies and brains deserve better, and that’s exactly how Ārepa was born.
What is the Ārepa Formula?
Ārepa is a Te Reo Māori transliteration of the word ‘alpha’, and to Angus and Zac, Ārepa reflects the unique frequency of alpha waves found in the brain. When people are in this state, they have 'effortless alertness' performing their task, or the state psychologists call 'flow' - performing better, achieving tasks quickly, and being more creative. It’s hard to mimic this focused state throughout the workday. Ārepa aims to recreate that state of flow and help us achieve peak cognitive performance!
Ārepa’s formula includes:
Polyphenols - antioxidant effects, protect our body from free radical damage, UV radiation and aggression by pathogens. Flavonoids - responsible for the vivid colours in fruits and vegetables. Anthocyanins - may offer anti-inflammatory and anti-fatigue benefits!
Arepa’s Key Ingredients
Ārepa’s Formula is based on neuroscience, not pseudoscience. It contains a powerful blend of New Zealand plant extracts and Japanese green tea constituents, which deliver a synergistic effect when combined.
New Zealand Blackcurrants have unusually high levels of antioxidants and polyphenols for a berry fruit! For this reason, the “Neuroberry” is the key ingredient in the Ārepa formula. New Zealand Enzogenol, an ultra-pure extract derived from pine tree bark, is a broad-spectrum polyphenol and contains many different flavonoid compounds with antioxidant properties! L-Theanine, a rare amino acid found in green tea. It's proven to cross the blood-brain barrier.
