Effect of Ilex Paraguariensis Harvest Time and Consumption Method of Processed Yerba Mate on the Lipid Profile
In plain words A study of yerba Mate in people 18 to 60, run by Universidad Nacional de Caaguazu. It plans to enroll about 198 people at 1 site, none in the US.

- Individuals of both sexes, between 18 and 60 years of age, residing in the country, who consume prepared yerba mate.
- Consumers of mate or tereré and mate/terere who agree to consume the yerba mate samples provided by the research team, which will be masked from laboratory analysis.
- Two weeks of abstinence from consuming prepared yerba mate, either as mate or tereré, prior to randomization for the trial.
- Consume exclusively prepared yerba mate in the prescribed manner (quantity of yerba, frequency of consumption, and sips), either in its mate or tereré form independently, and for those who consume both forms daily.

Registered summary
Introduction: This project studies the impact of Ilex paraguariensis harvest time, commonly known as yerba mate, and its consumption mode (mate, tereré, and mate/terere) on the lipid profile of consumers in the Department of Caaguazú, Paraguay. Yerba mate is rich in bioactive compounds such as polyphenols, xanthines, and saponins. There are no clinical trials conducted in Paraguay with our Ilex paraguariensis plantations that have analyzed the influence of harvest time on the yerba mate production process and the infusion mode, in relation to its effect on dyslipidemias. The full summary is on the listing.
