Yerba Mate is found in Uruguay and is considered to be the "Drink of the Gods". It is a beverage made of the leaves and stems of a powerful tree, native to the subtropical rainforests of Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil and Argentina. The tree looks a lot like an orange tree. It has a grayish trunk about twenty five to thirty centimeters in diameter.
Yerba Mate has many health benefits that include cholesterol lowering properties, anti inflammatory and low density lipoprotein (LDL) that help in the prevention of diabetes and heart disease. It is also considered an antioxidant powerhouse. It also has vitamins A, C, E, B1, B2, Niacin, B3, B5 and B complex. These items are essential to the energy boost that Yerba Mate provides.
Other benefits include that it stimulates focus and clarity. It also boosts physical energy. People have said that it can help individuals that suffer from depression. Of course, as with any stimulant it is only a temporary fix and not a permanent one for depression.
It can also make your headache go away. It can be used as a weight loss support and can be an important part of a weight loss program that includes Yerba Mate, diet and physical exercise. This product also aids in the elimination process.
People of Uruguay say that Yerba Mate, has the strength of coffee, the health benefits of tea, and the euphoria of chocolate all in one beverage". They hail it as the "Drink of the Gods.
Yerba Mate is a stimulant and has high levels of caffeine. It is a natural caffeine but caffeine all the same. It is to be enjoyed occasionally and not on a regular basis. It is definitely better if consumed in moderation. Another concern is that there are rumors that it may cause cancer if it is not prepared correctly or reused.
The proper way to prepare Yerba Mate is to put the leaves and twigs in a gourd and steep it with hot water. When the twigs and leaves have been properly steeped in hot water then it is ready to drink.
When you explore Uruguay you will realize that they use hot water in comparison to Paraguay where they use cold water. The proper and safe way is to prepare it in hot water to assure the safety of the drink. The leaves and twigs should be thrown out after they are used and not reused. This makes a tea-like beverage that is very popular in South America. It can be found online and in health food stores.
Whether you believe the health benefits or not you can be assured that Yerba Mate will give you an energy boost at the very least. Even though it is an energy boost it will only last so long. It does not have long term benefits. It is much like the energy drinks that we consume. Energy drinks have become very popular as of late but this drink has been supplying energy to South Americans for ages.
