December 2008, Issue 1 New Branding for Frutarom’s Green Mate Extract Reflects Efficacy in Weight Management
Finomate™ is the new brand name for prime Swiss extract manufacturer Frutarom’s Green Mate Extract EFLA 920, reflecting its proven efficacy as a slimming agent (Fino = Spanish for “slim” or “lean”). Green Mate (also known as Yerba Mate) is derived from the leaves of the South American evergreen tree, Ilex paraguariensis ST.HIL. It is consumed traditionally as a tea in South America, where it is well known for its mild stimulant and appetite suppressant effects. According to official herbal references, Green Mate is indicated in both weight management and the treatment of mental and physical fatigue. Weight management
Studies have shown that Green Mate’s unique activity profile has a threefold effect on weight management:
it suppresses the appetite, reducing calorie intake
it interferes with assimilation of fat in the intestines, reducing no of calories absorbed
it has a thermogenic (fat-burning) effect, increasing energy expenditure. (Investigating 12 herbs aimed at treating obesity (including Garcinia Cambogia/Hydroxycitric acid and Guarana), researchers found that only Green Mate showed promising results in promoting thermogenesis).
The latest results from an animal trial on obese rats suggest that consumption of Finomate over a longer period effectively reduces both body fat and visceral fat. It also led to a reduction in blood cholesterol and free fatty acid levels, two important biomarkers of obesity. Energy and Vitality
Green Mate has a mild central stimulant effect which helps to keep energy levels up in people on calorie-restricted diets
Green Mate activates the metabolism, improving both mental and physical performance
Green Mate has an antioxidant value more potent than vitamin C, which serves as a barrier to free radicals formed during physical exercise and helps to eliminate toxins released by the increased fat burn.
Multicomponent System The unique activity of Finomate™ cannot be attributed to a single substance; it is the result of a special synergy between its multiple active components. Frutarom’s patented extraction method ensures that Finomate™ contains – in contrast to caffeine concentrates – the entire spectrum of active ingredients in the traditional mate tea. Finomate™ is standardised on its 4 main active components: caffeoylquinic acids, saponins, caffeine and theobromine. EFLA®HyperPure To prevent fermentation, Green Mate leaves are heat-treated over a wood fire in accordance with age-old tradition. Frutarom’s patented EFLA®HyperPure process ensures that harmful lipophilic substances and smoke residues are removed. Frutarom’s unique processing technology ensures that Finomate™ is an extract of highest purity, excellent quality, improved stability and good solubility. In addition, Green Mate is GRAS listed.
