During six months I lost my appetite because of depression...but I drink mate every day...when I made blood analyzes including minerals, vitamins, I was in the best levels...included B12 vitamin...very important in adults and children...I think yerba mate prepeared as a tea in a big cup would be a healthy for countries or places where desnutrition causes many death, in Africa many children contract and die by Sarampion because of deficiency of minerals and B vitamin...
Thank you for sharing. As a matter of fact it is given daily to hungry children at school (mate cocido) in the poor areas of Montevideo (asentamientos).
Yerba Mate is native to Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina. Some plants may be found in Uruguay, but they are typically not cultivated since the drying and aging methods are not available there.
Well , Mate Tradition was adopted by Argentina and Uruguay but it's roots are in guarani culture indeed .. so I would say that Yerba Mate is part of the paraguayan legacy .. just look at the name of it ...Yerba Mate , Ilex paraguariensis.. Happy to share with the world.
mate is good to digest the food, if you drink a lot of it, also it helps you loose weight, coz you just don't feel hungry, besides the taste is so delicious, i've been drinking it for all my life, and when i stop drinking it i gain weght, now i started drinking a lot of mate and i lost all the weight! Viva Uruguay!
Jibbie49: That's one of the health benefits of mate... it can be used as a safe appetite suppressant while dieting. I think the appetite suppression qualities of yerba mate are due to the high nutrient content of the tea, but I am not sure.
Yerba mate acts as a safe and natural appetite suppressant, especially useful if you are on a diet or fasting. It is one of it's many health benefits.
now... i love my Colombian peeps.. but if you give a gourd, a bombilla, yerba mate, and a thermos of hot water to a Colombian or any other person in the Northern regions of SA.. they will think you are nuts.. anyway Saludos!
I love yerba Mate! I am totally addicted to it!

You're right. It's an herb that people in the U.S. primarily drink like tea. The FDA wanted the typical form of consumption in the labeling.
