Cosma Pure Herbs Yerba Mate - ekstrakt w kroplach, 30 ml

Yerba Mate from the Cosma Pure Herbs line is an extract from the leaves of the Paraguayan holly (Ilex paraguariensis) suspended in green hemp seed oil, in a 30 ml bottle with a dropper. It is the same plant that is usually brewed with boiling water in a gourd. Here, you get it in the form of sublingual drops, without brewing and waiting. In one dose, the distributor provides 33.3 mg of yerba mate leaf extract and 153 mg of hemp oil, which contains 30.6 mg of omega-3 fatty acids and 91.8 mg of omega-6 fatty acids. The ingredient list includes oil, leaf extract, and rosemary herb extract - free from alcohol, sugar, and flavors. The manufacturer states the package contains 600 drops and no less than 150 doses, with a recommended range of 1 to 6 doses daily. After opening, the bottle should be used within 60 days. The manufacturer describes the entire line as gluten-free and lactose-free, without artificial fillers.

Ingredients

Declared composition on the label, calculated per dose:

Green oil from hemp seeds - 153 mg, including omega-3 fatty acids 30.6 mg and omega-6 fatty acids 91.8 mg
Extract from yerba mate leaves - 33.3 mg
Extract from rosemary herb - a technological function ingredient, a natural antioxidant protecting the oil formula
Alcohol-free, sugar-free, flavor-free, and without artificial fillers in the ingredient list

These values describe one dose, which is the amount of extract you measure with the dropper at one time. With a range of 1 to 6 doses daily, the amount of extract depends on how many drops you measure. In this entry, for 33.3 mg of leaf extract, there are 153 mg of carrier oil, so the oil constitutes the majority of the drop's mass - it gives it volume and keeps the extract in suspension. Therefore, the manufacturer requires shaking the bottle well before each dose measurement. The third item in the list is the extract from rosemary herb: in this line, it serves a technological function and protects the oil formula from oxidation. The label breaks down the oil into two separate items (omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids), so alongside the carrier mass, you also have its profile. The table clearly shows a significant advantage of omega-6 fatty acids over omega-3, which is a natural characteristic of hemp seed oil. If you compare variants of this line, the most telling factor is indeed the ratio of extract to oil in one dose.

Who is it for

This is a suggestion for adults who enjoy yerba mate but may not always have the time or conditions to brew it. You can measure the drops in seconds, all you need is a dropper, and the 30 ml bottle fits in your cosmetic bag and can be kept at room temperature. You can adjust the dose smoothly, from one to six drops, so you can start with the minimum and see how it suits you. This is a dietary supplement taken sublingually, not a brew to drink. The label indicates the mass of the extract in milligrams per dose, so you know how much plant material you are measuring each time. If you monitor your daily caffeine intake, check the information on the packaging - the leaves of Ilex paraguariensis naturally contain it. The product is intended solely for adults. Do not use it during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and if you are taking medications regularly, consult your doctor beforehand. If you prefer capsules or ready-made sachets, this form may not convince you.

Frequently asked questions

How much extract from yerba mate leaves is in one dose?

33.3 mg - this is what the "Ingredients / 1 dose" table on the label states. Next to this item is 153 mg of green oil from hemp seeds, which contains 30.6 mg of omega-3 fatty acids and 91.8 mg of omega-6 fatty acids. All these weights refer to one dose, so with the recommended range of 1 to 6 doses daily, the amount depends on how many drops you measure.

How many doses does one bottle provide?

The manufacturer declares no less than 150 doses in the package and 600 drops, with the recommended range being from 1 to 6 doses daily. How many drops correspond to one dose - check the leaflet included with the packaging. In practice, however, the limit is set by the expiration date after opening: you should use the bottle within 60 days.

Does the preparation contain alcohol?

No. In the list of ingredients, you will find only green oil from hemp seeds and plant extracts - there is no alcohol on this list. This is an oil formula, not a water-alcohol tincture: in the entire Pure Herbs line, the carrier is oil. Besides the carrier, the list includes two plant extracts (from yerba mate leaves and rosemary herb), and the mass of the oil itself in one dose is 153 mg.

How to store the product after opening?

The manufacturer recommends a dark and cool place, out of reach of children, and the pharmacy distributor adds a temperature not exceeding 25 °C and protection from moisture. After opening, the bottle should be used within 60 days. Shake the contents well before each use - the manufacturer explicitly requires this because the extract is suspended in oil.

Variants and category

The same carrier formula is found in the Cosma Pure Herbs line with other plant materials - in this same line, there are variants Green Tea, Maca, and Ashwagandha, and you can directly compare the extract masses in doses among them. You can find the remaining items in the category Plant extracts.
