Yerba Matte found commercially is cooked at high heat for days to months. This changes its caffeine-like substances from health promoting Super Food Adaptogens into biologically-stressing stimulants which can cause flushes, headaches, heart racing, and irregular heartbeat.
Natural State, cold processed Yerba Matte is a Super Food – nutrient rich, calorie sparse. It's also an Adaptogen – acting as stimulant, regenerator or sleeping agent as is most required given a person's highest internal health priority.
Like Pure Vanilla, Yerba Matte amplifies the effects of other Super Foods. It is also high in polyphenols (powerful antioxidants) and saponins which support optimal longevity and immune system strength. Its strong, rich, botanical, green tea-like flavor works well with Chocolate and fruit juice drinks.
Many report Yerba Matte gives a sense of expanded well being, sharpened sensory experience, easily maintained focus and relaxed muscles. Its effects probably come from enhanced respiratory function, both oxygen uptake and metabolism. Yerba Matte's flavor and energy components are strong, so a little goes a long way.

Recipes Using Yerba Matte
We love Yerba Matte in our Chocolate Bliss - it balances with the Guarana we add to create just the right amount of blissfulness to the morning and throughout the day.
Vanilla Agave Nectar (or substitute about 20 dates or 6 Tablespoons honey if you are getting the Chocolate Bliss sample pack and don't have Agave)

Blend until smooth (works best in a Vita-Mix or other high powered blender). You may also desire to make a thicker smoothie by adding fresh or frozen fruit (we like bananas) and/or activated nuts (cashews or walnuts are particularly yummy). Chill and shake well before drinking. Enjoy!
Blend until smooth (works best in a Vita-Mix or other high powered blender), pour into a gallon-sized sealable plastic container, and then fill the rest up with pure water. Shake well, and then chill.
To make a concentrate for warm drinks, fill your gallon container only to the halfway mark when adding the water. Then you can use half of the chilled concentrate and half warm water each time you serve yourself. Enjoy!
