Here are just a few benefits....
1. Rich in Antioxidants
Yerba
mate tea is very high in antioxidants; it's got about 90% more
antioxidants than green tea. Yerba mate has significant immune
boosting properties. It can slow the signs of aging, detoxify the
blood and prevent many types of cancer. Yerba mate also helps reduce
stress and insomnia.
2. Enhances Your Ability to Focus
Proponents
of yerba mate tea say that the minerals, vitamins, antioxidants,
animo acids and polphenols found in this beverage have a balancing
effect on the caffeine it contains. Users report increased mental
energy, clarity and focus, but they also say that yerba mate doesn't
cause any of the uncomfortable side effects associated with drinking
caffeinated beverages, such as headaches, stomachaches and jitters.
3. Enhances Physical Endurance
The
chemical compounds and nutrients in yerba mate tea affect your
metabolism to make your body use carbohydrates more efficiently. This
means you'll get more energy from the food you eat. You'll also burn
more of the calories your body has stored in fat cells as fuel when
you drink yerba mate tea regularly. Regular yerba mate consumption
also helps keep lactic acid from building up in your muscles so you
can decrease post workout soreness and cut your recovery time.
4. Aids Digestion
The
native peoples of South America have long used yerba mate tea as a
traditional herbal remedy against digestive ailments. Yerba mate aids
digestion by stimulating increased production of bile and other
gastric acids. Yerba mate helps keep your colon clean for effective
and efficient waste elimination, and helps reduce the stomach
bacteria that can contribute to bad breath.
5. Helps You Control Your Weight
Native
South American peoples have traditionally used yerba mate as part of
a lifestyle that includes a healthy diet and exercise. Yerba mate has
stimulant qualities to help you feel full sooner after you begin
eating, and it slows your digestion so that your stomach stays full
longer. Combining yerba mate with a healthy diet and regular exercise
can help boost your metabolism to burn more calories, and it can help
you eat less by curbing your appetite slightly.
6. Supports Cardiovascular Health
The
antioxidants and amino acids present in yerba mate help fat and
cholesterol move through your bloodstream so that they don't
accumulate on artery walls. Yerba mate also helps prevent
arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and prevents blood clots
that may cause heart attack or stroke.
