How does Xtratus Mate Verde act in the body?
Mate has the ability to reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to the concentration of polyphenols, acting in a similar way to the body's natural antioxidant enzymes, it contributes to the reduction of cholesterol, the protection of the liver, stimulates the central nervous system and can be beneficial for the cardiovascular system.
Studies show that caffeine, a legal and widely used substance, has effects that improve endurance performance and can be used before and during sessions of training when high-intensity exercise is desired.
The degree of performance improvement depends on several factors and varies depending on the amount ingested, the mode of ingestion, and the frequency with which an athlete consumes caffeine daily and is accustomed to it.
How to consume Xtratus Mate Verde?
It is recommended that athletes consume 3 to 6 mg of caffeine per kilogram of body mass, no more than 60 minutes before exercise, but it can also be consumed during exercise.
Research suggested that the ergogenic effect of CAF with aerobic exercise was related to an increase in fatty acid oxidation and subsequent glycogen conservation muscle.
However, recent reviews conclude that CAF affects endurance performance largely through its antagonistic effect on adenosine receptors in the brain.
Acting through this mechanism, CAF may modulate central fatigue and influence ratings of perceived exertion, perceived pain, and vigor levels, all of which can lead to improvements in performance.
Studies also show that caffeine can be equally effective when taken in combination with sports drinks such as Therefore, we recommend that athletes abstain from CAF at least 7 days before use in competition.
As some people react to CAF differently than others (i.e., are sensitive to CAF), it is recommended that athletes experience CAF during training, before using it in competition.
