hmm danim you may be right there.
ive just read some conflicting information re yerba mate.. plus it tastes dreadful. il happily stop with the yerba mate!

but peggy after a brief read up on kombucha that seems like a much safer option, incredible in fact.

what can you drink in the mornings that will give you that little boost caffeine does but without caffeine?

Here in Perú, when we need energy we take maca. BTW I´ve think Yerba Mate has caffeine, so I´ll keep an eye on this thread to get a replacement. Kombucha sounds great so far

Hi, so with the maca in what form do you take it?
Just the powder in a smoothie etc? I did think about taking maca for hormone balancing but then read some women have gotten a bigger behind because of it :s
And yes I read from peggys link that the rooibos actually gives an energy boost so il update when I buy some. I imagine now the kombucha might not taste too flash but again yet to be confirmed

I would loooove to take maca if I knew I wouldn't gain weight on it. I don't want to risk it.
