Thank you so much Elena and so glad you enjoyed the article. Yes, we heard about terere but didn’t get a chance to try that version. Is there a particular type of Yerba Mate you like? Thanks for your feedback. Cheers.

Thank you so much Leo, so glad to have have your “local” point of view on our article. That’s really interesting to hear about the different brands and how they affect the body. Do you have a favorite brand? Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing your feedback 🙂

I’ve just read this, thank you for your lovely insight about our culture. Yes; many of us are affected like Rebecca. Different brands of Yerba Mate have different mixes, some of them are “stronger” than others, some of them have some other plants mixed, and we choose the brand according on how it affect us. Also, some people know how it affects them and how to prevent it; for example, “I won’t drink mate after the afternoon because then I can’t be able to sleep at night”.
Regards!

Thanks Rebecca! Interesting that it made you jittery. We haven’t heard anyone affected that way. We also tried it ourselves and we didn’t have that experience. We understand that there are many different types of mate and some are stronger than others. One of the most interesting observation is how much mate is part of the culture.
