What kind of Yerba Mate do you take. I learned about it when I was in Peru. It is amazing. It not only is an appetite suppressant, but it does wake you up and boosts my mood. I was told it had properties of dark chocolate which contributes to the mood. I guess that’s why we buy are women chocolate for Valentines Day. As with many others I would love to see you give your scientific approach to Yerba Mate. If would be great for those of us starting a plant based life as well. I know it is rich in antioxidants, boosts energy and mood, possibly increase physical performance, helps lower blood sugar levels, and refuses inflammation. These are what they’ve done for me backed by blood tests. Has made my and my girls planter fasciitis disappear when drinking everyday. Thank you Dr. H for all you do!!

[@aldanasimore7044]

I'm an avid listener of this podcast. I'm from Argentina and I wanted to share my translated version of a poem about mate written by Lalo Mir. I have it hanging up in my living room so every time somebody asks me 'What are you drinking?', they can read it. Mate is not a drink. Well, it is. It is a liquid and it does go through the mouth. But it is not a drink. In this country, nobody drinks mate because they’re thirsty. It’s more like a habit, like scratching an itch. Mate is the exact opposite of television: it makes you talk if you’re with someone, and it makes you think when you’re alone. When somebody comes to your house, the first thing you say is ‘hello’ and the second is ‘some mates?’ This happens in every household. Rich and poor. It happens between talkative and gossipy women, and it happens between men, serious or immature. It happens between old people in the nursing home, and between teenagers while they study or get high. It’s the only thing parents and kids share without arguing or nagging. [Republicans] and [democrats] pour it without questions. Summer or winter. It’s the only thing we have in common, victims and executioners, good and the bad. When you have a kid of your own, you start giving them mate when they ask you for it. You give it to them lukewarm, with a lot of sugar, and they feel all grown up. You feel an immense pride when a speck of your blood starts sipping mate. Your heart escapes your chest. Then, as years pass, they will choose if they drink it bitter, sweet, very hot, tereré, with orange peel, with herbs, with a twist of lemon. When you meet someone for the first time, you drink some mates. When there is still shyness, people ask: ‘Sweet or bitter?’. The other person answers: ‘However you drink it’. Keyboards in Argentina have yerba all in between the keys. Yerba is the only thing that you always have around, in every house. Always. With inflation, with hunger, with military coups, with democracy, with any of our diseases and eternal curses. And if one day there is no yerba, a neighbor has it, and they give some to you. You don’t deny yerba to anybody. This is the only country in the world where the decision to stop being a kid and start being a man happens on a particular day. No long pants, no circumcision, college or living far from your parents. Here we start being grown-ups the day we have the need to drink mates, by ourselves, alone. It’s not a coincidence. It’s not just because. The day a kid puts the kettle over the fire and drinks their first mate with nobody around in the house, in that minute, it’s when he discovers he has a soul. The simple mate is nothing else but a demonstration of values… It’s the solidarity of putting up with washed out mates because the conversation is good. Because the company is cherished. It’s the respect of taking turns to talk and to listen, you speak while the other one drinks; and it’s the honesty to say: ‘That’s it, change the yerba!’ It’s fellowship made moment. It’s sensitivity to the point of boiling water. It’s the tenderness to ask, stupidly, ‘it’s hot, isn’t it?’ It’s the modesty of the one who pours the best mate. It’s the generosity of giving until the end. It’s the hospitality of inviting. It’s the justice of one by one. It’s the obligation to say ‘thank you’, at least once a day. It’s the ethical, frank and loyal attitude of meeting without any purpose other than to share. Lalo Mir

[@aUILanguageofSpace]

so is there less obesity in Argentina?!

[@lizagarcia2117]

"he discovers he has a soul"

[@shitimade97]

@@aUILanguageofSpace funny question, we don't have as much obesity in rich areas as in poor areas due to over consumption of starches, sugars and low cost survival foods in poor areas despite drinking a lot of mate. Yet we are still thinner than the average american, also we are in an economic crisis 24/7/365 so hunger and survival foods are always there but I would argue that mate is one of the pillars that keeps Argentinian health in check.

Eduardo Galeano La yerba mate La luna se moría de ganas de pisar la tierra. Quería probar las frutas y bañarse en algún río. Gracias a las nubes, pudo bajar. Desde la puesta del sol hasta el alba, las nubes cubrieron el cielo para que nadie advirtiera que la luna faltaba. Fue una maravilla la noche en la tierra. La luna paseó por la selva del alto Paraná, conoció misteriosos aromas y sabores y nadó largamente en el río. Un viejo labrador la salvó dos veces. Cuando el jaguar iba a clavar sus dientes en el cuello de la luna, el viejo degolló a la fiera con su cuchillo; y cuando la luna tuvo hambre, la llevó a su casa. “Te ofrecemos nuestra pobreza”, dijo la mujer del labrador, y le dio unas tortillas de maíz. A la noche siguiente, desde el cielo, la luna se asomó a la casa de sus amigos. El viejo labrador había construido su choza en un claro de la selva, muy lejos de las aldeas. Allí vivía, como en un exilio, con su mujer y su hija. La luna descubrió que en aquella casa no quedaba nada que comer. Para ella habían sido las últimas tortillas de maíz. Entonces iluminó el lugar con la mayor de sus luces y pidió a las nubes que dejasen caer, alrededor de la choza, una llovizna muy especial. Al amanecer, en esa tierra habían brotado unos árboles desconocidos. Entre el verde oscuro de las hojas, asomaban las flores blancas. Jamás murió la hija del viejo labrador. Ella es la dueña de la yerba mate y nada por el mundo ofreciéndola a los demás. La yerba mate despierta a los dormidos, corrige a los haraganes y hace hermanas a las gentes que no se conocen

I grow Yerba Mate here in zone 9a. I have 2 trees about 5 ft tall and what's amazing is that we had two 15F winter events in three years with no effect on my Yerba Mate trees (one in-ground and one in a pot with no protection). Yerba Mate is an evergreen so you can enjoy Yerba Mate tea all year long. My Yerba Mate trees/bushes are a great beginner plant because they are drought tolerant and I have had no issues with bugs or diseases (I'm in zone 9a bug and diseases heaven)

I’m new to Yerba Mate, I wasn’t expecting it to be as stimulating as it is. For me it feels better than coffee but in a different way, more focus and clarity, and it’s STRONG and you can definitely over do it! As I found out yesterday after drinking a litre of it strong and iced at work and then made a traditional cup and sipped a litre of that over the evening till bed. Geez! It’s definitely dehydrating and my mouth is sooo dry! And I couldn’t sleep. It’s way stronger than ‘I thought so will drink it in moderation. I can’t drink it like I usually drink say peppermint tea all day. It’s wonderful stuff though.

Hello Dr. Huberman, may I have the reference info for the article you are referencing in this talk? Also, I have been trying to figure out (unsuccessfully) why GLP-1 agonists would not cause hypoglycemia non-diabetics. If insulin is increased and glucagon is decreased, I would think hypoglycemia would result. To your knowledge, is there a mechanism that limits this action? Also, do you know why GLP-1 receptors are considered beneficial for the heart?

[@tawnieweaver5469]

I am taking Semaglutide Peptide and it most definitely can cause hypoglycemia if taken in too high of a dose for your body. No science, just my experience.

[@monicafetheroff6770]

Fascinating 🤔!

[@paigejamison8265]

I commented on another video (older one). I'm torn on the GLP1 benefits. Prescription form. It delays/slows gastric emptying and increased postprandial volume. If one is fasting for weight loss or to lower insulin levels, wouldn't this be contra intuative ? Gastroparesis. The weight loss that occurs is from calorie reduction (people are full, nausea, early satiety). Does this affect gut hormones negatively? O love your knowledge and understanding, hopefully you can help me understand. Thanks ❤️

[@shay5025]

The studies indicate that the delayed gastric emptying only comprises about 20% of the effect of the prescription GLP-1 agonists. It also wears off after a few months and all the various study participants continued their weight loss, insulin sensitivity improvements, inflammation reduction, appetite reduction, reduction in carbohydrate and fatty food seeking behaviors, and cardiovascular benefits.

La sensación de saciefad después de tomar mate la asocio con el sabor que tiene, es como fumar y comer chocolate a la vez la sensación de plenitud que no me deja comer otra cosa.

Cual usas y donde la compras? Gracias

[@alejandro4300]

@@sandrasanchez644 Depende del país donde te encuentres, yo vivo en Argentina y se puede comprar en el supermercado, en EEUU se consigue por Amazon y en muchos lugares del mundo donde hay tiendas que venden productos de Argentina o sudamérica. Yo uso la marca "Cruz de Malta" porque las hojas estan cortadas de manera más grande y me parece mas suave y que dura más. Las marcas más populares de Argentina son Taragui, Nobleza Gaucha, Amanda, Rosamonte, Unión, Cruz de Malta, Playadito. Hay yerba mate también con hierbas agragadas por ejemplo Cruz de Malta con menta y boldo, o con manzanilla, lo Cbse hierbas serranas, o Cachamate, que son con hierbas como menta boldo poleo incayuyo. También la yerba mate viene como el te en saquitos (tea bags) para no necesitar mate y bombilla y poder tomarlo como un té.

I didn't know that certain ways of consuming mate could cause cancer. As an Argentine I drink a lot of mate, at morning and at afternoon.

[@frankerororo]

Do people eat it?

[@JPBotero717]

Which ways?

[@sunshine9993]

I’ve been drinking it for 30 years. Maybe if people smoke it, but never heard anyone smoke it before.

He meant smoked like smoked ham, smoked salmon, not like smoked tobacco

For the edification of all listeners, does the pill form of yerba mate have a different impact than the tea?

We need a podcast about semaglutide

Yes please

[@jwiki1]

I love yerba mate!! I drink it often!

[@gemmadidit4118]

But then I have to ask...is it my appetite that needs suppressing or just my cravings and the urge to eat? If I only ate when i was hungry I'd have no problem with it.

[@ztawsg]

Gooseberry also suppresses appetite. In India we use it while fasting. Also pranayama . I do one session of 20mins and then butyeko breathing exercises for 20mins. This works quite well.

In reference to the topic, I am very intrigued on Myostatin Inhibitors. It seems to be a way to drastically reduce obesity in very short time. And perhaps be used as a kick starter or even reach desired weight with in a couple of weeks. Do you have any comments in respect to them?

[@PageTurnersbooktube523]

I've been drinking since I was little. My dad is from Argentina

In Argentina we drink a lot of "mate".

In argentina we drink mate , a hot drink with yerma mate that we drinks all day as a cultural drink

Would you please recommend a brand of Yerba Mate tea /supplement please?

[@jackchop1576]

Yerba mate is the only one that I can consume on an empty stomach. Coffee makes my blood sugar spike and drop and I end up dizzy, weak and crabby on an empty stomach and tea makes me vomit unless I'm eating something else.

So is it good to get a shot of Semaglutide with L-Carnitine?
