Yerba Mate Overview
Yerba mate is a plant native to South America. It is often consumed as a tea and is known for its stimulating effects, similar to those of coffee or other caffeine-containing drinks.
In addition to its use as a beverage, yerba mate has also been used medicinally as it is believed to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and potentially weight loss-promoting effects. Some studies have also suggested that yerba mate may have a positive effect on blood sugar control, cholesterol levels, and blood pressure. It is also sometimes used as a laxative at higher doses.
Mobocertinib Succinate Overview
-
Mobocertinib is used to treat a certain type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that cannot be removed by surgery and has spread to other parts of the body either during or after treatment with platinum chemotherapy medications. Mobocertinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps stop or slow the spread of cancer cells and may help shrink tumors.
