Because the study back in 2014 which looked at how Yerba Maté ingestion augments fat oxidation and energy expenditure during exercise.

What is the Best Yerba Mate? Which Yerba Mate?

So the real question is, what type of yerba mate to go with and how do you use it. Ideally with this one, organic mate would be best. It’s also important to avoid roasted and heavily smoked types since it contains higher levels of a compound called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that can be potentially carcinogenic.

Is Yerba Mate Safe?

We dont have enough data to be certain on how much of the PAHs can cause cancer, but we do know from the study on “ PAH’s and the potential source of carcinogenicity of mate, that “unfortunately, safe levels of exposure to Benzo alpha pyrene, which is a type of PAH, and other potentially carcinogenic PAHs in drinks have not been determined using epidemiologic data in humans. Based on rat studies though, that an exposure of 5 ng per kg body weight daily, so(350 ng/ day for a 70 kg person, is “virtually safe” in humans. But again, this is going to largely depend on the extraction process also the carcinogenic PAHs are often hydrophobic.

How to Drink Yerba Mate?

Which is why knowing where the mate comes from is huge here, does it come from a sustainable farm? Its ironic actually because, at the same time, if the mate is of high quality, it should also provide anticancer activities mainly through proteasome and topoisomerase inhibition. It also can reduce DNA damage from oxidative stress.

So if I were to drink it, the safest bet is not to drink it at very hot temperatures, or if you’re really concerned, stick with cold yerba mate beverages.

This is another one of those cases where you have to be the judge and weigh the pros and cons against your own goals, health history, and personal food philosophy.

Always talk with your doctor before trying out new supplements to even see if is right for you.
