Organic Green Yerba Mate Tea is truly a remarkable herbal beverage which ranks exceptionally high in nutritional content among brewed or steeped drink products. Yerba mate (pronounced "Mah-Tay") is a species of holly (family Aquifoliaceae) native to subtropical South America in northeastern Argentina, Bolivia, Uruguay, Paraguay and southern Brazil. Our organic yerba mate is shaded grown and has not been roasted or treated.
 
Yerba Mate is Packed with naturally occurring nutrients and antioxidants. There are 196 volatile (or active) chemical compounds found in the Yerba Mate plant. Of those, 144 are also found in green tea. Yerba Mate contains 11 polyphenols. Polyphenols are a group of phytochemicals.
 
Mate contains three xanthines: caffeine, theobromine and theophylline, the main xanthine being caffeine. Caffeine content varies between 0.7% and 1.7% of dry weight (compared with 0.3-0.9% for tea leaves, 2.5-7.5% in guarana, and up to 3.2% for ground coffee); theobromine content varies from 0.3-0.9%; theophylline is present in small quantities, or can be completely absent. A substance previously called "mateine" is a synonym for caffeine (like theine and guaranine).
