Yerba mate IS NOT dangerous PLEASE READ!

Alright I have been reading tons about how yerba mate can cause cancer. I want to make it clear that the actual herb yerba mate does NOT cause cancer, it is the temperature of which it is drank. I just wanted to make that clear.

Oh, well now that a random person had something on the internet about it, it must be true! 
Do you seriously expect a thread like this to persuade anybody about anything? You have provided absolutely no data and you aren't even a respected member.

I came here prepared to post a solid "TL;DR", and instead I ended up posting a chinese owl graem, a request for OP to elaborate, and quoted Gencore.
Oh, Internet..

I had never heard of it causing cancer before this. After a quick search online it sounds like the heat is one factor in cancer risk but it also contains carcinogens.

Yeah I've tried it a few times and the taste did not agree with me at all. Doesn't sound like it's necessarily any healthier than coffee anyway.

This was like a huge budget Hollywood action movie with a really weak plot and poor character development. I mean when I saw that he had "please read" in all caps I was like, "awwww snap this gonna be cray cray". But then I opened it and wow, pretty anti-climactic. Very disappointed.
1 out of 5 stars for this thread.

I've read it's the smoke they use to dry the yerba mate is what can cause cancer.
You can buy unsmoked yerba mate.
