Be an Anti-Inflammatory and Help Relieve Allergies?
It has been noted that Yerba Maté is helpful in opening respiratory passages to overcome allergy symptoms. It has shown to reduce the severity of some allergies and hay fever and works by stimulating the adrenal glands to produce corticosteroids, which help suppress the inflammation and immune response due to allergies.

Be an Antioxidant and Fight Free Radicals? Yerba Maté has significant antioxidant activity, demonstrated in numerous studies. Its high antioxidant values are linked to rapid absorption of known antioxidant plant chemicals found in mate leaves. In 2005, researchers at the University of Illinois studied 25 different types of mate. They found the tea to contain "higher levels of antioxidants than green tea"... and, based on cell studies, "may help prevent oral cancer."

Suppress your Appetite and Burns Fat? For many years, physicians in Europe have been incorporating yerba mate in treatments for obesity. Supporting its reputation as a stimulant, Yerba Maté is said to stimulate the burning of fat. There are claims that the herb suppresses or helps to curb the appetite. It is also thought that it stimulates weight loss by short-circuiting the feedback mechanisms that keep the body from producing more adrenaline when stimulated by other weight loss herbs.

Increase Energy? It is widely held that this tea contains mateine, a chemical cousin of caffeine that has subtly different properties. Though similar to caffeine in its ability to provide energy, it can have a milder and safer delivery to the body.

Cleanse your Blood and Bowels? As a stimulant, it is thought to help relieve constipation, and because it is high in mineral content, the herb helps to restore minerals lost in the laxative process.

Promote Perspiration? As a diaphoretic, it helps to promote perspiration and lowering fever and cooling the body. The herb is also believed to be a powerful diuretic that encourages urine flow and helps the body expel excess retained fluid. This is particularly helpful in relieving the excess water weight and bloated feelings associated with premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

#3	Açaí Berries This one has 10 times the antioxidants that grapes have and twice of blueberries and pomegranates, which are famously the ones that everyone holds up as the Superfood when it comes to fruit. Loaded with vitamins, it increases circulation, and of course most importantly lowers inflammation so it is sort of like aspirin of the jungle."
#4	Yerba Maté "It aids in digestion and helps your skin . . . It has the fatigue fighting benefits of coffee, but it doesn't stress your central nervous system and doesn't stress your muscles. So, you can drink it before your workout, you can mix it with different juices, and it doesn't take away from healthful benefits of other foods the way coffee does and in some cases the way tea does."
#5	Cupuaçu "Now this is the one nobody really knows about that I think is going to take the country by storm over the next couple of years. Cupuaçu is known in the Amazon Rainforest as a "pharmacy in a fruit". It is similar to the Cacao tree. It has the taste sort of like a cross between chocolate, passion fruit, and bananas . . . It is really a phenomenal food . . . Now this stuff, it destroys free radicals and is so high in antioxidants. This can literally help anything that ails you - from improving the texture of your skin to cleaning out your GI tract . . . This is the next great Superfood."
