Eugene Park Views  

We introduce you to excellent beverages and teas that can wake you from your slumber. From caffeine-rich energy drinks to health-friendly herbal teas, these drinks can help you wake up and spend your day energetically.

Caffeine-Containing Beverages

▶Coffee

The main ingredient of this drink, caffeine, blocks adenosine receptors, reducing sleepiness and enhancing memory and concentration. Coffee is rich in antioxidants and offers many health benefits, but excessive consumption can cause anxiety and heart palpitations.

▶Green Tea

Rich in antioxidants like catechins, it’s good for health, and the amino acid L-theanine regulates the action of caffeine, maintaining a stable state of wakefulness. It also helps with oral health and is known to be effective for weight control.

▶Energy Drinks

In addition to caffeine, they contain additional ingredients like taurine and B vitamins, providing a short-term wakefulness effect. However, as it can strain the cardiovascular system, it should be consumed cautiously.

▶Peppermint Tea

The menthol ingredient has a cooling effect on the body and provides mood enhancement and mental refreshment. It also aids digestion, making it suitable for consumption after breakfast.

▶Lemon Balm Tea

The compound citral in lemon balm provides a refreshing scent similar to lemon, which aids in awakening the mind. It is also effective in relieving stress and reducing anxiety.

▶Ginseng Tea

Active ingredients like saponins boost energy and alleviate fatigue caused by stress. It also aids in strengthening the immune system, making it a beverage for a healthy start to the day.

▶Matcha

Matcha, made from ground green tea, contains a high concentration of the powerful antioxidant EGCG. It gently elevates energy levels, helping maintain a state of wakefulness throughout the day.

▶Acai Berry Juice

Rich in omega fatty acids, amino acids, and electrolytes, it aids in energy production in the body. The tart taste also effectively lifts the mood.

▶Lemon Water

The acidity of the lemon refreshes the body, vitamin C strengthens the immune system, and drinking lemon water itself aids in awakening the mind.

▶Coconut Water

Rich in electrolytes, it helps improve symptoms of dehydration, and the natural sugars contained provide a gentle energy supply.

▶Beet Juice

It improves blood circulation through vascular dilation, and as a result, more oxygen and nutrients are delivered to the brain, clearing the mind.
