Fatigue and lack of energy are problems that many people face these days. The insanely fast pace of life forces us to look for quick energy, which is why it is often joked that caffeine is the best friend of students and workaholics. Did you know that we get it not only from coffee or energy drinks? Or maybe you have heard about taurine, which is often added to caffeine in products? We share where these substances come from, what their effects are, and why it is more beneficial to consume them together.
Sources of Caffeine
Caffeine is a substance that stimulates metabolism, respiration, and blood circulation. Caffeine is most commonly used to improve mental and physical performance and increase heart rate. Although caffeine is commonly associated with coffee, tea, or energy drinks, there are several other sources of this popular stimulant:
- Chocolate. This sweet contains caffeine, but in smaller amounts than coffee or tea – which is why it is said that chocolate can quickly provide energy and speed up brain activity. The amount of caffeine in chocolate depends on the type of cocoa used and its amount in the product. For example, dark chocolate contains more caffeine than milk chocolate. So the higher the percentage of cocoa in chocolate, the more energy you will get.
- Soft drinks. Many soft drinks, such as Coca-Cola, contain caffeine as one of the main ingredients, so it is not recommended for children, pregnant women or people with heart problems to abuse such drinks. In addition, frequent consumption of soft drinks can cause tooth decay, obesity or diabetes.
- Medicines and dietary supplements. Caffeine can be found in some, for example, painkillers or anti-inflammatory drugs – it can help reduce symptoms such as headaches and fatigue. Caffeine supplements are also becoming increasingly popular among athletes, but it is important to know that excessive amounts of this substance can have dangerous side effects, such as anxiety, increased heart rate, or dehydration.
Caffeine and taurine: how do they complement each other?
Taurine is an amino acid naturally found in certain animal tissues, such as seafood, meat, as well as eggs and milk. Not everyone knows, but taurine plays an important role in many physiological processes in the body, such as in the functioning of the nervous system, regulation of the immune system, and the functioning of the cardiovascular system. It has also been scientifically proven that taurine has antioxidant properties and is involved in fat metabolism.
Together, caffeine and taurine are often found in energy-giving products. Although the aforementioned compounds have different effects on the body, they complement each other perfectly – caffeine stimulates the brain by blocking the action of adenosine, a neurotransmitter that promotes sleep and relaxation, while taurine
helps protect the cardiovascular system, so it can neutralize the negative effects of caffeine on heart rate and blood pressure.
In addition, when consuming products containing caffeine and taurine, you will not feel such energy surges as when consuming caffeine alone. After all, many are familiar with the feeling when after a cup of coffee, it seems that you can move mountains, but after just half an hour your energy runs out and you are completely without strength. Taurine helps to avoid this effect and enjoy the feeling of energy for longer.
cannuLAB Daily Energy gummies are a great choice for those who are tired of constantly seeing a tired face in the mirror.

While coffee is the most well-known source, caffeine is also found in tea, chocolate (especially dark chocolate), soft drinks like Coca-Cola, and certain medications or dietary supplements. These alternatives can offer an energy boost, but should be consumed in moderation to avoid side effects.
Taurine is a naturally occurring amino acid found in meat, seafood, eggs, and milk. It plays key roles in supporting the nervous system, heart function, and immune regulation. It also has antioxidant properties and helps with fat metabolism, making it a valuable ingredient in energy supplements.
Caffeine and taurine work synergistically: caffeine stimulates the brain and boosts energy, while taurine helps protect the heart and nervous system, reducing side effects like jitters or energy crashes. This combo provides smoother, longer-lasting energy than caffeine alone.
Each cannuLAB Daily Energy gummy contains the equivalent of two espresso shots, offering a strong but sustained energy lift. Thanks to the taurine content, you get enhanced endurance without the rapid spikes and crashes often associated with caffeine-only products.
Yes, it’s recommended to do a short “coffee detox” if your body is used to high caffeine intake. Detoxing helps reset your tolerance, allowing you to experience the full benefits of the taurine–caffeine formula in Daily Energy gummies. Gradually reintroduce the gummies afterward for best results.
