Pipore Yerba Mate 250G Original 100%

At 80 milligrams (mg) of caffeine per cup, yerba mate contains about the same amount of caffeine as a cup of coffee (5Trusted Source).

Therefore, just like any other caffeinated food or beverage, it may increase your energy levels and make you feel less tired.

Caffeine can also affect the levels of certain signaling molecules in your brain, making it particularly beneficial for your mental focus (6Trusted Source).

Some research reports that caffeine can improve alertness, attention, and reaction time in participants who consumed a single dose containing 40–300 mg of caffeine (7Trusted Source).

Additionally, those who regularly consume yerba mate often rave that it enhances alertness like coffee, but without the jittery side effects.

However, these testimonials have not yet been scientifically proven.
