Peru Shop Express presents the Organic Yerba Mate:
If you like to find an alternative to coffee but still get your caffeine fix, then Yerba Mate is for you.
This is a plant that is native to South America and grows wild in Peru, but is now appreciated and cultivated in many tropical countries world wide. The leaves from organic Yerba Mate are nutritious and medicinal. The way Yerba Mate is drunk is by steeping it in hot water for 5 minutes and then served hot or with ice.
Better Energy Than Coffee
Yerba mate has been said to have the “strength of coffee, the health benefits of tea, and the euphoria of chocolate” all in the same cup.
Indigenous South Americans called Yerba Mate “the drink of the Gods”. While European settlers later referred to it as “the green gold of the Indios”.
The Peruvian tea Yerba mate is well known to boost energy that’s mainly described as calm, clean and gentle.
When comparing Yerba mate to other common natural stimulants such as coffee, tea, cacao, guarana and kola nut, according to many reports, yerba mate delivers the most gentle and balanced energy boost.
Those who drink Yerba mate experience a state of mental alertness and energy wakefulness that’s similar to coffee, but without the jitters.
Yerba mate does not promote insomnia and there are no other nasty caffeine related side effects.
In fact, many athletes use Yerba mate to boost their physical performance.
Yerba mate helps those suffering from physical and mental fatigue/tiredness, and even from chronic fatigue syndrome.
This Peruvian tea contains 85 mg of natural caffeine per cup, and this is more than black tea but still less than a cup of coffee.
Some say that yerba mate has mateine and not caffeine.
Just because the caffeine-like effect of Yerba mate may seem to be a lot different than that of caffeine from coffee, a unique stimulant compound has not yet been found.
Some say that perhaps mateine is just caffeine which is bound to a tannin in the raw leaf.
The jury is still out there.
