    Yerba mate has the strength of coffee, the health benefits of tea, and the euphoria of chocolate, all in a single drink. Grows in South America's rainforest...is natural, full of anti-oxidants and people say it "washes away" wrinkles. I don't know if the last is true but just in case I drink it since I was a kid....Well, everybody does down there.
    You can google this one.

    I bought some of that in teabags, @Silvia Benoit , and I have tried drinking it, made the same was as I make my tea. How do you make yours and how often do you drink it ? It tasted similar to tea to me, and I didn’t taste chocolate at all.

    You can drink it as tea or in a curd. No, it doesn't contain chocolate BUT it gives you a jump as does choco.

    I have been into searching for a healthy living for years. The cost of buying everything all the health nuts want you to buy. So being a cheap skate I look for the easy way. First I buy a capsule maker and make my own medicine from antioxidants finding the ORAC score of different things then putting them in capsules like you can put different spices turmeric, or cloves which has one of the highest ORAC score. Then go out in the yard picking leaves from the moringa tree drying them grinding and putting in capsules. Also for arthritis getting pure gelatin in capsules. Than off to the veterinarian to buy my pain killer and minerals. I found DMSO is one of the best topical pain killers I have found it will also transport antibiotics into infected areas.
    Then I buy the minerals for animals the price for a bag is about $4 and it has almost everything people need even two different selenium. I don’t know how much those minerals would cost in the health food stores but it would be quite a bit. I still love my inventions like the PEMF unit which helps many ailments

    The five doctors in my family always told us: "" Before you talk to e physician check your kitchen's cabinets; most of the meds you need are among the spices you buy.......Needless to say a good nutritious meal keeps the doc away"" .

    When I asked one of my cousin (youngest doc) why they didn't tell their patients to "cure themselves with food" he told me "Because the government forbade us from "informing" the people."

    Great News! In some other countries, they have known and done that for thousands of years.

    footnote for other research: it is well established, (apparently), that skin troubles of most kind (including cancer) start in the gut. When the gut is made whole/ healthy/ healed, the troubles go away. Verified or verifiable by testing not done by ama doctors.
