Yerba Mate

Yerba Mate is made from an evergreen holly that grows in the rainforests of Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil. Yerba Mate acts as a stimulant very similar to coffee but without the side effects such as insomnia or irritability. This is because Yerba Mate contains theobromine, which is similar to caffeine, but it is not caffeine. Yerba Mate can be used by people wanting to lose weight since it can enhance the metabolic rate and suppress the appetite. It is also a diuretic so it can help with water retention. Other advantages of Yerba Mate include, fighting fatigue, boosting the immune system, lowering blood pressure, and lowering cholesterol. It also helps fight off colds and flu since it has a high vitamin C content.
