Unimate™

Yerba mate comes from a plant native to South America, where it has been consumed in community rituals for hundreds of years. Naturally rich in antioxidants and nutrients, yerba mate has been traditionally used to promote mental clarity, endurance, and appetite control, and an improved mood.

Unimate™ contains a proprietary yerba mate extract that enhances those beneficial effects. This drink contains naturally occurring caffeine and up to 10 times the amount of chlorogenic acid found in a premium cup of coffee. Unimate’s yerba mate undergoes a unique five-step process–handpicking, fire roasting, extracting, concentrating, and purifying. The result is a powerful beverage that boosts the mood and heightens mental stamina, focus, motivation, and endurance.

Unimate™ is a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and secondary metabolites such as chlorogenic acids and triterpenoid saponins. Chlorogenic acids and triterpenoid saponins found in Unimate™ have been documented in the scientific literature to support healthy gene expression in the body.

Clinical studies show that Unimate™ has the ability to promote a healthy mood. Psychological well-being in a group of subjects, assessed using the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire, was increased by 20% after taking Unimate™. The mode of action of this result is likely due to the ability of chlorogenic acids to support healthy mood and cognition—as previously reported elsewhere in the scientific literature.

An additional clinical study demonstrated the ability of Unimate™ to maintain healthy blood-lipid and blood glucose levels in the body. A 12% reduction of total cholesterol, 5% reduction of LDL cholesterol, and 11% reduction of triglycerides was observed in a group of subjects who took Unimate™ once daily for 30 days. Additionally, a 5% reduction in fasting blood-glucose and a 3% reduction in HbA1c levels was also observed in this same group.

Other clinical studies have validated the ability of Unimate™ to support healthy weight loss in the body due to the ability of Yerba Mate triterpenoid saponins to support healthy gene expression of anti-obesity related genes.*

Mix contents of one packet with 17-24 oz. of hot or cold water, twice daily. Pair with intermittent fasting and/or Balance for a complete weight management system.
