Yerba Mate......Drink Of The Gods!

If I had to creat my name all over again I would change it to Yerba mate. I love tea, I really do. I still drink tea almost everyday......however tea doesnt have a leg to stand on compared to Yerba Mate. Im seriously addicted to it. Every morning i enjoy a fat ass gourd! I wonder if this stuff has addictive properties? Im getting excited just thinking about it! The funny thing is though, it tastes like shit Im slowly acquiring the taste, however its still bitter as hell. Despite its manly taste I still love it! It energizes me, no crash at all, and provides a feeling of tranquility with a relaxed state. It I dont know if its the 3 different amino acids in it that balances out the caffeine (xanthines) or what!
Its loaded with amino acids, and cant help but feel so awesome drinking out of a gourd. Its a inexpensive drink that has been handed to us from god himself! Its quicker to make then tea (lower water temp), and an exotic drink you can share with your friends. I urge all of you to try this shit. Get down with Yerba mate. Funny thing is, even if I dont have a gourd in the morning.....im still fine! If I was addicted to coffee like i used to be, I would be extremely grumpy and pissed off! With Yerba Mate this is not the case. Is truley amazing at all the benefits.
I have no idea if it increases the risk of cancer. But honestly the studies they have done are minimal and contradict eachother! They even say it has more antioxidants then green tea What are you waiting for guys? Dont buy it from a store cause the price is way jacked up.
http://www.worldpantry.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce/ExecMacro/ecoteas/home.d2w/report (Great well packaged, high quality yerba mate at a few dollars higher then below)
http://www.goyerbamate.com/SearchResults.asp (Very cheap authentic Argentina yerba mate)
http://www.ma-tea.com/ (This site is good for gourds and Bombillas, however they have sent me expired Yerba mate before, so beware when ordering it from them)

Actually, you'll find that there's plenty of studies out there linking tea to esophogeal cancer as well, especially in places where people drink their tea VERY hot. As I recall, the link between tea and esophogeal (or other head/neck) cancers is currently presumed to simply be a result of the temperature of the beverage (I'll try to dig up my citations tomorrow, I'm pretty sure I remember where I found the info). So it makes sense then that mate (which is also consumed very hot) would show the same sorts of links.

Dont listen to these guys! There are plenty of studies that show it to have cancer fighting compounds. Everything is bad for you if you think about it.

No it is the processing we do to it and the chemicals we add.........we are being poisoned by almost all processed foods.
