In this acute study, we evaluated the real-time glucose response to Feel Great. Subjects followed a self-selected, habitual diet, and incorporated the Feel Great program as directed during the study period. Within a short duration, Feel Great significantly reduced Baseline glycemic variability by 12%. Reducing glycemic variability is a therapeutic target in diabetes, and these short-term improvements with Feel Great may contribute to better health outcomes in the areas of oxidative stress, inflammation, and cardiovascular health in the long-term.
Cardiometabolic Health
Feel Great, a dietary supplement and intermittent fasting program, improves glycemic variability in adults
Unimate, a yerba maté supplement, prevents weight gain and improves cellular energy production and antioxidant levels in the body
In this study, the effects of four weeks of Unimate consumption on cellular metabolism and antioxidant levels were measured in fatty tissue, skeletal muscle, and the liver tissues highly relevant to whole-body metabolism. Study results showed that Unimate prevented weight gain and improved energy production efficiency in the muscle, while burning more energy in fat cells. In addition, changes in the liver showed improved antioxidant levels, suggesting Unimate’s protective effects against oxidative stress and the preservation of cellular function. Together, these data indicate the beneficial, tissue-specific effects of Unimate supplementation on energy production, fat cell metabolism, and oxidative stress in vivo that are protective against obesity.

Wellness
Effect of Unimate on acute appetite suppression among adults
Acute appetite responses to Unimate, a yerba mate supplement, were measured and compared to a flavor-matched placebo drink among a group of participants following a 12-hour overnight fast. Participants rated feelings of hunger, fullness, desire to eat, and other appetite- related measures for 120 minutes following consumption of Unimate or Placebo on 2 separate occasions. The overall trend in results show a decrease in desire to eat, feeling of hunger, and how much people thought they could eat, while fullness increased. Desire to eat was significantly reduced at 15, 30, and 45 minutes following Unimate consumption compared to baseline (0 min). These preliminary results suggest that Unimate supports appetite control, likely due to key components of the yerba mate extract including caffeine, chlorogenic acid, theobromine, and mate saponins.
