Theacrine (1,3,7,9-tetramethyluric acid) is a purine alkaloid found in cupuacu fruit (Theobroma grandiflorum) and the kucha plant (Camellia assamica var. kucha), that appears to work in a similar way to caffeine – but with less tolerance.
Theacrine shows anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects and appears to affect adenosine signalling in a manner similar to caffeine. In kucha leaves, theacrine is synthesized from caffeine in what is thought to be a three-step pathway.
A couple of human studies suggest that theacrine may increase mental clarity, boost energy, and improve mood and motivation
How does Theacrine work?
Researchers have determined that theacrine works in the primary ways: it facilitates adenosinergic neurotransmission.
That means that theacrine enhances physical energy by causing adenosine signaling changes similar to caffeine. It also acts as a adenosine antagonist by causing adenosinergic signaling, which enhances physical energy even further.
In layman’s terms, that means theacrine boosts physical and mental energy in your body by raising levels of certain neurotransmitters
Theacrine could be used for different applications as below:
Theacrine raw materials was usually mixed with other ingredients to process to be ready-to-eat products in form like: dietary supplement (capsule / tablet), energy drink or powder.
Theacrine Benefits
Theacrine is commonly found in sports supplements like preworkout formulas. Manufacturers used theacrine for the caffeine-like effects without the unwanted side effects of caffeine.
