Nutrimuscle organic yerba mate is for:

• Athletes, to promote muscular relaxation after training
• Inactive people, to assist a diet or to improve sleep

During a diet
If your goal is fat loss, take 3 to 4 capsules of Nutrimuscle organic yerba mate with your evening meal.

Before or after training?
Avoid consuming Nutrimuscle's organic yerba mate before exercise because of the very temporary decrease in muscle tone it may induce. If you are looking to relax your muscles, take 4 capsules of Nutrimuscle organic yerba maté after your workout.

In the evening
For improved sleep, take 4 Nutrimuscle organic yerba mate capsules with your evening meal, or 2 capsules with your evening meal followed by another 2 capsules before bed.

As with all fat burners, it is best to start moderately, starting with 2 to 3 capsules to see how your body reacts. If all goes well, up your dose by one capsule the following day and repeat as necessary. There is no need to try to reach very high doses, just use a moderate dose that you feel is effective.

Synergies between supplements

Nutrimuscle's organic yerba mate is best teamed with organic green tea. The latter will accentuate the stimulating, but not nerve-inducing, effects of Nutrimuscle's organic yerba mate.

Another mixture consists of taking Nutrimuscle organic yerba mate with ZMB Pidolates at night before going to sleep. These two supplements promote neural and muscular relaxation.

Contrary to popular belief, Nutrimuscle organic yerba maté will in no way prevent your creatine (Creapure®) from working. On the contrary, their effects reinforce each other in terms of increased muscle performance and lean mass gain.

Adverse reactions between supplements
Nutrimuscle organic yerba mate slows down the assimilation of fast proteins: Peptopro® and whey protein.

It's rare for consumers to have access to the names of the suppliers of the raw materials that go into the supplements they consume. However, this is essential to ensuring product traceability.

At Nutrimuscle, we use only the highest quality yerba maté, the quality of which is guaranteed. 

Guayapi yerba mate is native to Paraguay, hence its scientific name (Ilex Paraguariensis).

Guayapi uses wild plants gathered by local tribes, always respecting traditions. Organic agriculture thus preserves the environment. Guayapi respects the quality regulations of many organic and fair-trade certification bodies. It's a far cry from industrial farming, chemical extraction, and GMOs. 

What matters most to us is the quality of the raw materials, your health, and the results you achieve using our nutritional supplements.

Many competing brands sell yerba mate. It is rarer to find this plant in organic quality. Even in organic, we must not stop there, because we all know that there is organic first price that respects at least the specifications. And there is the organic which, by vocation, goes well beyond the specifications. As we will see, this is the case here with Nutrimuscle organic yerba mate.

What makes the difference between the various forms of yerba mate is not the caffeine content, it is the polyphenols (catechins, epicatechins) and the tannins.

With fast and inexpensive means of extraction, we destroy a large part of these active ingredients. The secret to obtaining yerba mate extracts rich in polyphenols lies essentially in the method of drying (1).

By avoiding high temperatures or roasting, all the active molecules are better preserved.

Medical research has shown that carefully extracted yerba mate is twice as effective against fat as the commonly found commercial yerba mate (2). In addition, it is important to use organic raw materials especially when consuming the leaves, as is the case with yerba mate. Indeed, if, during cultivation, we spray pesticides on these leaves, you will mechanically find traces of them in your supplements (3).

The big advantage of yerba mate lies in the fact that it is not very "aggressive" for the cardiovascular system. Yerba mate produces a vasodilator action linked to an increase in the production of nitric oxide (NO) (3).

Unlike other thermogenic stimulants, yerba mate moderates the heart rate instead of increasing it. Likewise, yerba mate improves the quality of sleep instead of preventing sleep.

yerba mate and health
Yerba mate, by lowering blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels, helps prevent cardiovascular disease (4). Its long-term use is also associated with improved defenses against free radicals (5). It also protects the bones, which is a good thing on a diet, as calorie restriction tends to decrease bone density (6).

Yerba mate and satiety
While caffeine contributes to the appetite-moderating effects, it is the polyphenols in yerba mate that prove to be the best stimulants of appetite suppressant hormones (7).

This is because they alone increase the levels of GLP-1 and leptin (7). These are two appetite suppressant hormones whose production collapses during a period of calorie restriction, which is why we are always hungry on a diet.

It is therefore important to have a burner that contains yerba mate when you are on a diet, in order to moderate your appetite.

Yerba mate and recovery
Yerba mate helps muscle relaxation, and therefore recovery. Because of the very temporary decrease in muscle tone induced by yerba mate, it is best not to use it before training. On the contrary, taken after exercise, yerba mate promotes muscle relaxation and accelerates the return to calm.
Indeed, it is useless for the muscles to remain "tense" during the day and even less at night.
A muscle that remains spasmed after exercise will not be able to recover, both in terms of its fibers and its nerve controls. By promoting relaxation, yerba mate accelerates both muscle and nerve recovery.

Yerba mate and sleep
Yerba mate helps you sleep better (8). It was the naturalist Charles Darwin who popularized the use of yerba mate for sleeping. In his most famous book "The Voyage of the Beagle", which reports the results of three years of exploring South America, Darwin writes that yerba mate allowed him to fall asleep almost immediately and wake up more. form despite the precarious sleeping conditions in nature.

This improvement in sleep, thanks to mate, can materialize in several ways:

• Faster falling asleep, especially when fatigue is already installed;
• A shorter sleep, but more regenerative;
• An easier wake-up, which allows you to be in shape immediately.

Thus, indirectly, you will have more strength in training thanks to Nutrimuscle organic yerba mate. Only a very small minority of users will see their sleep disturbed. Indeed, if yerba mate helps relax the nervous system and therefore the muscles, it promotes brain activity. It is for this reason that it helps to remember his dreams better.

In a small minority of users, this brain activity prevents sleep, while in a large majority, it provides more regenerative sleep.

In the event of a sleep disturbance, it is best to use Nutrimuscle organic yerba mate in the morning (for those who train in the evening) or just after exercise (for those who train in the morning).
