Herbal Dietary Supplements - Benefits of Yerba Mate, Guarana and Damiana

We live in such a fast-paced environment that it is almost impossible for us to maintain a proper diet. More than 40% of the global population suffers from obesity and various diseases at risk from obesity. Half the world thinks the answer to all these problems lies in natural herbs and herbal extracts. Properly selected, they can not only blow up extra weight, but also help prevent and cure various deadly diseases.

In this article we will look at the benefits offered by three "super herbs" - Yerba Mate, Guarana and Damiana.

Yerba Mate - Clinical trials show that Yerba Mate has the ability to lower LDL-cholesterol and increase serum lipid parameters in uninfected individuals. These herbs also reduce the concentration of members of the family of eco-nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase (E-NTPDase) which results in increased levels of ATP, ADP and extracellular AMP. In short, the plant is able to clean the artery blockage and stop it from behind. It also increases the energy levels in the body.

Antioxidant and Anticarcinogenic Characteristics of Yerba Mate - Studies on human subjects have shown that there is a relationship between the level of caffeoyl-derivatives and AOC (antioxidant capacity). It has a very high concentration of caffeoyl-derivatives and is able to neutralize toxins in the body.

Researchers at the University of Illinois (2005) have argued that Mate Yerba is high in "Phenolic" boosters and can prevent oral and other cancers. Control studies have shown that herbs have no known cause for cancer.

Guarana - Guarana enjoys GRAS status (generally recognized as safe) in the United States and has suppressive characteristics. It has the ability to control the signal to the brain telling the body whether it is "full" or not. It can trick the body into thinking that it's full and doesn't need any more food, even if it doesn't. Studies show that this Guarana property can cause significant weight loss in healthy human subjects.

A study on rabbits showed that Guarana could reduce the formation of thromboxane platelets. This means that herbs can prevent heart attacks and ischemic heart disease.

Damiana - Damiana has been used for centuries to treat various complex diseases. Plant extracts are usually made into tea to treat conditions from constipation to depression. Cough, Fibromyalgia, emphysema, low estrogen, cramps, hot flashes, impotence, infertility, menopause, Parkinson's disease, PMS, prostate inflammation and Lou Gehrig's disease are some of the diseases used to treat plants. It is also used to treat sexual disorders in both men and women.

How the Combination of Mate Yerba, Guarana and Damiana Can Benefit

Combining all three herbs can prevent many degenerative diseases and help reduce fat quickly. A placebo-controlled study showed that the combination of the three ingredients was able to reduce 11.2 pounds in 45 days. This combination has a positive effect on short and long term memory, overall understanding and immune system. It effectively reduces weight, without causing general weakness and preventing heart disease and cancer.
