Guess what I just got!?
A whole bag of these leaves All the way from Peru. No, I'm not going to make hard drug with this. I was curious to have it's effects are as is.
I chewed 3 leaves and didn't feel a thing right away. So I did more research(i did more...) and your not supposed to chew it at first but let it sit in your mouth and squeeze it with your tongue for a while then chew, then spit. Repeat until you get the desired effect.
Some websites say to chew it as is or with bicarbonate soda or boil it but friends from Peru say otherwise. Go figure. Why not do both yourself and find out first hand?
Only thing was, what effect was I going to get?
I'll tell you,
Light headed. But not dizzy. More so, that light headedness one gets when one gets high off tobacco for the first timers. If you ever smoked cigarettes, you'd know what I mean. Apart from that, ENERGY.
I felt as though I drank 5 coffees after the 6th leaf. My breathing was slightly deeper and smoother, and felt the effect when I breathed in pure oxygen. And these people in the mountains of Peru chew this daily all day? Holy cow.
I can see also why it might feel addictive too. Pains numbed down as well. So apart from energy boost it sedated my gums and overall slight my chronic back pain for good hour.
I wonder how it will do in tea?
And with cannabis mixed?
Experiments incoming lol.
I don't recommend any of this to anyone. I recommend you dyor first.
This bag of dried coco leaves was a gift a shaman I met in one of my Ayahuasca retreats. Though I doubt I'll ever see him again in this lifetime, it was a nice farewell gift from him to us all.
He's going back home and is not coming back. Due to old age. Another will take his place to reach the youthful about the magical cures that Ayahuasca tea offers.
I wish he would have given me more of that instead lol.
I have added the trip to the way south just for that experience again to my bucket list.
The picture you see above if you haven't figured it out yet is called Coco not because it comes from the Choco plant but from the plant that cocaine is stemmed from.
Yikes! Did you say cocaine?
Sure did imaginary fella
But the effects are completely different. As an ex cocaine addict I would know. But not just because of that. I have done a few readings myself.
The leaf on its own poses no real threat and is sold in the open market dried to substitute tea or coffee. Yes it's strong. 6 leaves wow. I imagine it will be stronger in water once boiled. So I'll stick to 2 leaves when I boil it. But in some other time because I am currently on a different tea diet for my own health using guanábana leaves, eucalyptus, and cannabis mix. It puts me to sleep so I only take it before I hit the hay.
The eucalyptus tree grows everywhere in my town and I even have one in my own front yard that needs to be trimmed down a bit.
The electric company will have to do that though since they decided to plant their wires over my tree and front yard, that's not my problem. So I get free top trimming service now. Woohoo. Saves me a boat load of trouble to do that myself. I can get lower parts though with latter and with Lety (my machete).
Where was I?
Ah yes coco nuts if you try to take in the form of cocaine. If you haven't seen how it is made go watch some videos on it. Look into the consequences of your health for doing so. Not good stuff at all.
But as it stands, the two are worlds apart. It may be good to chew it if your hiking or really need that energy boost to keep you awake or going.
It does also give you an inhibition of appetite and thirst. I didn't drink anything afterwards for the first two hours however. But boy was I focused on work this morning. Lol
A few leaves for the fellas too. And it was a coco party. Everyone enjoyed it. No one harmed. Or permanently damaged. Everyone else gave the same conclusion about its effects that the felt. But what else is there to this apart from substituting for coffee?
What other benefits does chewing this give you?
Well if you're fatigued it will help reduce or even eliminate it. Or if you have gum issues, or teeth hurt etc, chewing it with bi carb soda will make your mouth explode into numbness. I'm telling you this because I've done it already. It's potent if you really increase the amount of leaves. Very potent. Go easy on it eh?
Or go hard. Do what you like it's your body. But strongly advise you to research it first so you won't over do it.
Never abuse what nature offers.
Even with cannabis has it's limits before you turn to Mush and your function to be helpful is caput. Sure you can't get an overdose with cannabis but still, why do you want to hide behind it?
Seek help. Even weed can be abused.
And you most certainly can get an overdose with coca leaves and much more especially so with cocaine in its powdered form.
Be safe everyone.
Peace
