Tips for Preparing Brazilian Basics Diet Yerba Maté Tea
Brazilian Basics Diet Yerba Maté Tea should always be brewed using loose leaf tea leaves in hot but not boiling water. Tea bags block much of the true flavor and vital nutrients released by the tea during the brewing process. Water in excess of 180°F destroys many of the vital nutrients found in the Yerba Maté leaves. For best results when brewing an individual serving, use a tea ball or tea strainer. With one tablespoon you can enjoy up to three cups of delicious Brazilian Basics Diet Yerba Maté Tea.

Studies and Scientific Research on Yerba Maté Tea
- Enhanced Weight Loss -
Thanks to the natural effect of components like caffeine, teobromine, flavonoids, saponins, and poliphenolic, compounds, Yerba Maté plays an important role, both in body fat reduction and weight loss. This is due to its thermogenic effect which boosts energy waste and contributes to fat elimination (A. Martinet, K. Hostettmann and Y. Schutz).
- Increased Energy & Vitality -
The health benefits from Yerba Maté can be quite staggering considering it contains such a full range of vital and beneficial nutrients. According to Dr. Mowrey, Director of Mountainwest Institute of Herbal Sciences, in regards to the effects of Yerba Maté, changes in behavior such as an increase in energy and vitality are observed, as well as an increased capacity of concentration, reduction of nervousness and increased resistance to mental and physical fatigue. An improvement of mood, especially in cases of depression, frequently occurs as a result of its use (D. Mowrey 1991). Apart from providing essential minerals to the body, such a potash, sodium and magnesium, Yerba Maté retards the accumulation of lactic acid in muscles. This turns it into an excellent natural energizer for people that practice sports or other physical activities (D. Mowrey 1991).
Yerba Maté is a natural source of energy due to its xantine content. Boosting intellectual activity and concentration, Yerba Maté invigorating properties have a favorable effect on the body giving it more vitality and stamina. Therefore, it is specially recommended for people who practice sports and physical activities (D. Mowery 1997).
- Anti-Aging and Antioxidants -
Yerba Maté leaves contain polyphenols (or phytochemicals) which in recent studies from the U.S. indicate that polyphenols are powerful antioxidants that boost and strengthen an organism's natural defenses, and protect it from cellular destruction that causes physical deterioration and the development of sicknesses. (J. Carper 1988). Yerba Maté leaves also contain saponins (one recent study yielded 3 new saponins from the Yerba Maté leaf). Saponins are phytochemicals that have been found to specifically stimulate the immune system and aid the body in protecting against disease. In addition, results from a study done by researchers at the University of Madrid assert a high content of mineral elements, especially potassium, magnesium, and Manganese, in Maté. They considered those findings "to be of great relevance" to the nutritional value of Maté infusions. In fact Yerba Maté infusions have proven to be a more powerful antioxidant than ascorbic acid (vitamin C), and show similar properties to those found in red wine. Meaning it acts as a strong antioxidant and inhibitor of lipoprotein low density oxidation. In 2005, researchers at the University of Illinois studied 25 different types of Maté. They found the tea to contain "higher levels of antioxidants than green tea."
- General Health & Nutritional Content -
Maté and other green teas show similar nutritional properties. Yerba Maté contains significant amounts of potassium, sodium, manganese and magnesium (T. Sanz & T. Isasa 1991). Vitamins A, B1, B2, and C, riboflavin, carotene, panthostenic acid and inositol have also been detected in Yerba Maté (F. Akaridis, 1987).
Dr. Mowrey also noted that one group of investigators from the Pasteur Institute and the Paris Scientific Society concluded that Yerba Maté contains "practically all of the vitamins necessary to sustain life." They focused especially on Pantothenic Acid, remarking that it is "rare to find a plant with so much of this significant and vital nutrient. . . It is indeed difficult to find a plant in any area of the world equal to Maté in nutritional value." And based on cell studies, Yerba Maté "may help prevent oral cancer."
