Dr. Mowrey is a self-proclaimed expert on herbal remedies from around the world. His work is quoted by everyone selling mate. He was the first to suggest that mate does not contain caffeine, but rather another xanthine alkaloid known as mateine. The doctor refers to a handful of studies to backup his claims, but we have been unable to confirm the existence of those studies. We're not suggesting he is wrong or mistaken, we just don't want to make a claim without supporting evidence.
At Aviva, we want our customers to be completely knowledgeable about the products we sell to them. Hundreds of years of observation by indigenous groups in South America provides a strong record for mate's health benefits, but we want to take that a step further by presenting folks with institutional research. As a result, we've scoured medical journals and scientific databases for published research on this wonderful and mysterious plant.
We've compiled our efforts into a single White Paper on Yerba Mate that we are providing to our current and potential customers free of charge. If you have further questions and are looking for honest answers, don't hesitate to contact us. If we don't know the answer, we'll try to find it for you!
