Wisdom of the Ancients Instant YerbaMate Royale, 2.82-Ounce  (Pack of 4)
Gilbert, Arizona-based Wisdom Natural Brands is the parent company of three highly respected consumer brands: SweetLeaf Stevia, Wisdom of the Ancients Yerba Mate, and Sweet and Slender Natural Sweetener. James May, the founder of Wisdom Natural Brands, was involved in bringing stevia to the United States more than 20 years ago. The company is now the leading US manufacturer of stevia and offers a full line of SweetLeaf Stevia products. They are available in convenient single-serve packets, liquid, powder, tabs and concentrate, including their best-selling product, SweetLeaf SteviaPlus, which was developed by James’ son, Steve. Together, this father-and-son team has introduced millions of people in North America to stevia.Derived from the naturally sweet rainforest herb stevia rebaudiana native to Paraguay, stevia has zero calories, chemicals, carbohydrates, and a zero glycemic index, making it a smart addition to beverages, cereals and other dishes, and increasing popular among consumers. At a time when producers and consumer are increasing drawn to products that claim to be all-natural, low calorie, and low in carbs, stevia has caught the eye of health-conscious consumers. It has been around for centuries and is just now becoming the rage with the sugar-shunning crowd, in part because of the popularity of low-carbohydrate, high-protein diets that discourage sweets.
