Yerba Mate is known for many healing properties.

One that it provides, unlike it’s nasty neighbor coffee, is being an alkaline drink.

Being alkaline basically means that it will not upset your stomach like coffee is sometimes known to do. Coffee can be highly acidic and can irritate, especially after several cups. Yerba Mate is brewed from a natural tree leaf ( ilex paraguariensis ) that grows naturally in the sub tropical region of the Amazon Rainforest basin.

Alkaline also means that you can help to neutralize any irregularity you may be having in your stomach. Despite what most people think acid reflux is caused by a lack of acid, Yerba Mate can help to neutralize that.
