Description
- Yerba Mate provides energy and amino acids - it is a great coffee alternative - Botanical name: Ilex paraguariensis
- Ojas Naturals Honey Extracts are made with RAW HONEY added to the traditional extraction method making it SWEET & TASTY.
- The honey does more than make the extract taste better, it acts as a carrier and CARRIES THE HERBS TO DEEPER TISSUES through the digestive process for IMPROVED ASSIMILATION
- Because Ojas Naturals uses RAW HONEY it is loaded with ENZYMES, PROTEINS, VITAMINS, and MINERALS which all work synergistically in the extraction formulation
- Extracts are a very CONVENIENT way to take herbs and they STAY FRESH for a long time, NATURALLY PRESERVED from oxidation in the liquid form. Many people believe extracts are more effective than powders or pills because of this.
Our honey extracts are made with a mixture of alcohol and honey together. The honey used in the extraction process works to extract different components of the plants providing a more complete extraction not to mention it tastes great! According to Ayurveda the honey acts as a carrier in the digestive process, carrying and assimilating the herbs into deeper tissues. Yerba Mate is very popular in South America where in many countries it is consumed over coffee 6 to 1. Mate provides more than just a healthy energy boost, it has been shown to contain a multitude of vitamins and minerals (24 to be exact), amino acids (15!) and more antioxidants than green tea. Truly a super food Mate is a great choice over coffee which has been shown to release cortisol causing the body to believe it is under stress. We make our Yerba Mate Honey Tincture with shade grown mate. Shade grown mate is more nutritious and tastes better than mate grown in the sun. Shade grown mate is dark green and has a nice bold flavor. Sun grown mate is pale resembling dried hay in color and has a flat taste.
