Abstract
The diet, defined as the sum of food consumed by a person, has a preponderant role both in the quality of life and in the overall health of individuals, since nutrients are capable of directly affecting certain cellular processes. From its origins until today, yerba mate was used as an infusion. This drink offers amino acids, vitamins, minerals and a large number of phytochemicals, which provide health benefits. This is why its composition has invited many scientists to explore the properties of this vegetable, especially its antitumor properties. Over the years, various hypotheses have been outlined in relation to the action of yerba mate on this pathology. Today, thanks to the contribution of the scientific community, we know that many chemical compounds that are part of this vegetable are directly linked to the modulation of various signaling axes, which have a direct impact on the biology of cancer.
