Summary

Vale 22799 wrote that a doctor had told them they had 'this ish' about 12 years earlier, and that about seven years after that they discovered guarana. They called the guarana a game and life changer, saying it gave them nice energy and focus without the crash. Writing in May 2026, they still put the improvement down to it.
