Yerba Matte (Yerba Mate) is consumed mainly in Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and southern Brazil. It is brewed from the dried leaves and stemlets of the perennial tree Ilex paraguarensis. A tea native to South America and has been used for centuries as a health tonic and beverage. Containing 196 active compounds, nutrients, and amino acids, Yerba matte is touted as the new healthy alternative to coffee. Additionally, it is believed to act on sensory organs to assist dieters in reducing food cravings.

The name "Mate" derives from the quichua word "matí" that names the gourd (Lagenaria vulgaris) that is traditionally used to drink the infusion. Quite often mate is bitter and sharp but this one is smooth and delicious. It contains twice as much caffeine as tea and is refreshing, invigorating, and rich in vitamin C. In addition, it is considered an appetizing drink that suppresses food cravings and the appetite. However, the only thing that it offers as a stimulant is caffeine.

By limiting food intake while dieting, any added caffeine can leave you feeling jittery, sweaty, and disoriented. Limit your caffeine and Yerba matte intake, increase your water consumption, and exercise, and you will find you do better on your diet.
