META MATE…. A POWERFUL WAY TO ACHIEVE BETTER HEALTH!

20 + Vitamins and Minerals

Packed with multiple vitamins and minerals, which include potassium, extremely important for the growth and maintenance of the body.  Magnesium and manganese help to maintain your bones strong and also regulate blood sugar levels, which can offset the craving for sugary treats. Vitamins A, B, B1, B2, B3, B5, C and E are all present in yerba mate and these are essential for great health.

Stimulant

The biggest difference between yerba mate and all other herbal drinks, is its caffeine content.  Comparable levels of a regular cup of coffee and with none of the side effects that some experience such as jitteryness or upset stomach.  Aside from caffeine the leaves also contain the xanthines; theobromine and theophylline – both serve as additional stimulants.

Regulates Nervous system

The combination of stimulants, vitamins and minerals present in yerba mate have been shown to moderate the central nervous system by calming it if it’s over-excited, or stimulating if it is dragging along. It also promotes a general feeling of well-being by providing enhanced alertness and heightened energy levels. This has been linked to aiding with depression in many that drink it.

Increases Metabolism

Yerba Mate has the ability to help the body more efficiently process carbohydrates during and after exercising. This means that more calories are burned, while the stimulation effect enhances focus and desire to continue the exercise.  Since an increased number of calories are burned, the lactic acid buildup is delayed, this allows the body to exercise for longer periods and with more intensity, before one begins to feel the burning sensation of the buildup, which makes the activity uncomfortable or even painful.

Internal  Cleanser

Yerba Mate has traditionally been used by the people of South America to treat digestive tract disorders. Upset stomach, as well as bowel discomfort can be soothed by the drink.  Studies have shown that it does, in fact, help eliminate toxins from the body and enhance the passage of waste through the digestive system.
