Yerba Mate Studies - Yerba Mate Tea
Yerba Mate studies are a little difficult to find as are most independent studies of a non-pharmaceutical product. The reason? Simple, there is no money to be had by the pharmaceutical companies for doing research on a non-pharmaceutical product. We have put together a chronological list of studies that have been performed on the benefits of Yerba Mate and a summary of the findings. We will continue to update this information as more studies are published.
