Four Botanical Extracts. One Morning Sachet.

Wellaray Coffee brings together four botanical and nutritional ingredients in a single, convenient sachet format. Each ingredient has been selected for its traditional use in wellness contexts and - where applicable - for the EFSA-recognised role of specific nutrients it contains.

This page provides a factual, ingredient-level overview. No medical claims are made about this product. The nutrient function claims described below are recognised by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) for specific nutrients and apply to those nutrients in isolation, not to Wellaray Coffee as a product in its entirety.

"Knowing what is in your supplement - and what the evidence actually supports - puts you in a better position to make an informed choice."

L-Carnitine

Nutrient · EFSA-Recognised Role

L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring compound biosynthesised from the amino acids lysine and methionine. It is found in most human tissue, with the highest concentrations in skeletal and cardiac muscle. It is widely used in food supplements and is classed as a nutrient rather than an herbal extract.

EFSA-recognised role: L-Carnitine contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism. This is an approved nutrient function claim under EU/UK regulations. It means L-Carnitine plays a defined role in the biochemical process through which the body derives energy from nutrients - specifically, it facilitates the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria where they undergo oxidation.

This claim applies to the nutrient L-Carnitine. It is not a claim that Wellaray Coffee as a product achieves any specific outcome. Food supplements containing L-Carnitine may contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism as part of a balanced diet.

Green Coffee Bean Extract

Botanical Extract · Coffea arabica · Traditional Use

Green coffee bean extract is derived from unroasted Coffea arabica beans. Unlike roasted coffee, green beans retain higher concentrations of chlorogenic acids - polyphenolic compounds that are substantially reduced during the roasting process. The extract used in Wellaray Coffee is standardised to a defined chlorogenic acid content.

Green coffee bean extract has a long history of use in wellness and dietary supplement traditions internationally. It is one of the most widely studied botanical ingredients in the food supplement category.

No specific EFSA health claim has been approved for green coffee bean extract as a whole ingredient. It is used in Wellaray Coffee as a botanical ingredient in the context of its traditional use - not as a medicinal substance and without claims of treating or preventing any condition.

Garcinia Cambogia Rind Extract

Botanical Extract · Tropical Fruit · Traditional Asian Use

Garcinia Cambogia (also known as Malabar tamarind) is a small, pumpkin-shaped tropical fruit native to South and Southeast Asia. Its rind has been used for centuries in traditional Ayurvedic, Thai, and South Indian culinary and wellness practices - most commonly as a food flavouring and digestive support ingredient.

The rind extract is standardised to hydroxycitric acid (HCA), the primary active compound. Garcinia Cambogia supplement UK products are widely available; it is among the most recognisable botanical ingredients in the weight management supplement sachets category.

No disease-related claims are made regarding this ingredient. Garcinia Cambogia rind extract is included as a botanical food supplement ingredient with a documented tradition of use in Asian food and wellness culture.

Guaraná Seed Extract

Botanical Extract · Paullinia cupana · EFSA Caffeine Claims

Guaraná (Paullinia cupana) is a climbing plant native to the Amazon basin in Brazil. Its seeds contain naturally occurring caffeine at concentrations approximately two to three times higher than coffee beans. Guaraná seed extract has been used in South American indigenous traditions for generations and is a common ingredient in food supplement and functional food formulations worldwide.

EFSA-recognised roles (via caffeine content):

  • Caffeine contributes to normal cognitive function (EFSA-approved claim at ≥75 mg per serving)
  • Caffeine helps maintain endurance performance during prolonged exercise (EFSA-approved claim at ≥3 mg per kg body weight)

These claims relate to caffeine as the specific nutrient, not to guaraná extract or this product as a whole. Total caffeine intake from all sources - including Wellaray Coffee - should not exceed 400 mg per day for healthy adults (EFSA). Individuals who are pregnant, breastfeeding, sensitive to caffeine, or taking medication should consult a healthcare professional before use.
