>>19415321
Just googled it and it seems pretty official to me. Apparently mate has the same cancer giving compound as meat char.

>>19415321
See, I just knew you were flaming, grade A retard.

>The role of hot mate in increasing the risk of cancer of esophagus, larynx, and oral cavity seems to be supported by several epidemiological studies. The temperature could act by damaging the mucosa or accelerating metabolic reactions, including those with carcinogenic substances in tobacco and alcohol.
I hope you're drinking it cold :^)

>cherry picks non conclusive studies with no peer reviews
yeah I think I'll keep enjoying my mate

>>19415403
First study literally is a review of other studies, all the others are in journals, which require a review. Drink 3rd world puke, get vaccinated, that will really show me

>>19415428
Lol you're confidently wrong aren'tcha. Anyway I just finished my drink and I gotta be productive and shit, you know. Cya!

>>19415356
>>19415403
> Yeah dude, this herb drinked daily for like 1000 years is extremely bad for you
I don't even drink mate, but you are retarded
Studies should conform to observations, not the other way around. Everything that has been consumed for centuries have passed the "time test" that shows "health risk" in studies are just bullshit

>>19415256
what yerba do you use? In the meantime you could use some cascarilla to the same effect, though the flavor is a chocolate-y one

>>19415256
Is it supposed to taste like anything? I bought a bag and it had the slightest taste of wet hay, and even that flavor was barely there. I pretty much just ended up with a mug of discolored hot water.

>>19415445
>people have been using tobacco for centuries which means it's perfectly fine for you!
>people have been drinking alcohol for millienia which means it's perfectly fine for you!

>>19415445
Would you put lead pipes in your house like the Romans?

>Would you put lead pipes in your house like the Romans?
People actually DID this in the USA, because they thought that something that was used for centuries was good for you. And boomers wondered why their children were retarded.

what is the point of the specific straw and why is it in a little urn?

>>19416341

Both alcohol and tobacco are good for you if consumed in moderation you idiot

> . Tap water from ancient Rome likely contained up to 100 times more lead than local spring water, the team reports online today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. While the lead contamination was measureable, the team says the levels were unlikely high enough to be harmful, ruling out tap water as a major culprit in Rome's demise
Better use those plastic bottles, right?

If something is *that* poisonous you have people fucking die from it and naturally select people who don't do/consume that you dense cretin

Studies are useful because we don't want to experiment directly on humans and wait 10/20/50/100 years
If you find people already experiment that you don't need studies to assess the health effects on those substance

Nah the meme drink is the energy drink. I'm talking about the hot drink.
>>19416364
If I were Brazilian I'd already have some.

The gourd (urn) has loose leaf tea mixed with hot water. The bombilla (straw) has a filter at the bottom so you don't drink any leaves.
>>19416182
I like the taste of it, but obviously loose leaf is better.
>>19416118
I drank Guayaki before, just got cruz de malta, it's good.
>>19415356
That study says it's much more likely if you're a woman who drinks 1 L a day. I'm a man who drinks 1 cup on a day I'm in the mood for it.

>>19415356
>Claims mate
>Study is actually about scalding yourself and is true even with just water

Yerba is good and good for you. I'm glad it's bitter enough to never truly get big here in America, it's nice to have something cheap now that good coffee and tea are getting less affordable.
For me, it's Rosamonte Traditional.

I saw a woman break down and cry because she couldn't afford mate and laundry detergent since they became 5 times more expensive overnight

>peer reviewed
Sure, my buddies agree
There you go peer reviewed
