Organic Unsmoked Yerba Mate 16 0z.

In addition to Yerba Mate's pleasant taste, it is consumed to boost immunity, cleanse and detoxify the blood, tone the nervous system, restore youthful hair color, retard aging, combat fatigue, stimulate the mind, control the appetite, reduce the effects of debilitating disease, reduce stress, and eliminate insomnia.

Traditionally, the dry leaves are placed in a cup, or gourd called a mat?, then cold water is added to moisten the leaves and protect the nutrients and flavor. Next, hot water is added until all the leaves are covered. Rather than removing the leaves, you sip the tea through a straw called a bombilla which has a filter or strainer at the bottom to prevent the leaves going through the straw. As you drink the tea, you add more water to the cup.

Yerba Mate contains xanthines, chemicals that boost your metabolic rate by 10% and is is rich in pantothenic acid, which prevents overstimulation of the nervous system. Yerba Mate has a host of anti-oxidants that boost immunity and protect against colds and flu. Studies show it is as powerful a cell protector as vitamin C, reducing the effects of aging as well as protecting against cancer and other disease. Furthermore, researchers say that Yerba Mate is a rich source of magnesium that has been proven to ease anxiety.

Suggested Use:

Drink Yerba Mate throughout the day to keep your energy levels up without the jitters; enjoy it with friends; or start your morning with it. Add some Real Raw Agave Nectar or Palm Sugar for a sweeter taste, if so desired.
