From the leaves of the yerba mate evergreen tree that grows in the native habitat of the magical jaguar in South America comes a herb that for centuries was known as the "Drink of the Gods" to the Guarani Indians. Legend has it that yerba mate was the household cure for the Guarani who used it to boost immunity, cleanse and detoxify the blood, tone the nervous system, combat fatigue, reduce stress, and stimulate the mind, among other things.

Yerba mate is basically a stimulant drink, reported to eliminates fatigue and stimulate mental and physical activity. Yerba Mate is believed to have a beneficial effect on nerves and muscles and to enhances intellectual work.

Thanks to its vitamin B complex, yerba mate supports muscle energy, nerves and cerebral activity; vitamins C and E act as organic defense on the organism's tissues; mineral salts, jointly with caffeine, help the cardiovascular work and support blood circulation, since caffeine acts as a vasodilator. In such circumstances, hunger can feel as satisfied.
