The Incas discover the coca medicinal and magical properties 2,000 a.c., but the large industrialized nations found other
applications for the coca leaves that have nothing to do with beneficial applications for the human being.

The coca plant is essentially a medicinal plant per excellence, whose preventive and therapeutic properties have demonstrated their effectiveness throughout time.

Erythroxylon is the botanical name of the coca herbals and there is a full in deep study made by Antonio Brack Egg a Peruvian scientific biologist who devoted more than twenty years studying Peruvian native plants under the financial support of the United Nations Development Program and CBC (Centro de Estudios Reginales Andinos Bartolome de Las Casas.

In leaf form, coca does not produce toxicity or dependence. Its effects are distinct from those of cocaine (see references).

A whole extract of the leaf, include; alkaloids, natural flavors, and several nutrients vitamins A, B1, C, E, B12 potassium, magnesium Zinc copper Sodium, Phosforus, Calcium Fibre, iron.

the Andean natives like to chew today coca (chacceo) burning some coca leaves and mixing with fresh coca leaves wrapping a piece of lime forming a ball of coca leaves with the lime as the nucleus to obtain a chemical reaction together with the inner mouse fluids to support long hardworking periods without a need to eat or get tired

It is not by chance that the plant has acquired a broad and diverse range of applications in the traditional medicine of the indigenous people. Its irreplaceable qualities have been demonstrated over time and throughout a vast territory. The coca leaf has established itself as the traditional remedy for treating physiological and psychological illness, and by virtue of its composition it is a powerful energy restorer for curing stomach and digestive ailments, alleviating affections of the larynx and vocal chords, preventing vertigo, regulating arterial pressure and the metabolism of carbohydrates, and even of improving sexual prowess.

Mate Coca is not addictive so you can take up to three cups a day

Shamans from some traditional Indian tribes still smoke coca leaves
for magical purposes. Inhaling the sacred vapors induces a trance-like state. Coca enables a shaman to cross ‘the bridge of smoke’, enter the world of spirits, and activate his magical powers. Alas the leaves don’t travel well; and this ancient usage is uncommon in the
urban industrial West.

Strictly speaking, the leaves aren’t actually chewed. Typically, the dried coca leaf is moistened with saliva. The wad is placed between the gum and cheek and it is gently sucked. The invigorating juices are swallowed.

But cocaine is a complete different thing, To get a few grams of cocaine the evil drug, is necessary to collect a large quantity coca leaves and process it using harmful chemicals in an illegal danger process.

According to research, the chemical composition of coca leaves is more complete and rich in calories, proteins, fats, carbohydrates, fibre, ash, minerals (calcium, phosphorous, iron, potassium, magnesium, sodium, ascorbic acid, etc.) and vitamins A, C and E than other food plants and infusions in common use such as coffee, tea, chamomile, etc. Thanks to this research, it is nowadays recognized that the coca leaf contains more proteins (19.9 per cent) than meat (19.4 per cent) and far more calcium (2,191 per cent) than condensed milk, and that it is richer in vitamin B-1 (276 per cent) than fresh carrots (see, Carter and Mamani, Coca in Peru, 1980).

Finally, a direct link has been established between man’s hunger, his physical and moral fatigue and the traditional use of coca, which ranges from chewing, through infusions to poultices. Under extreme poverty, characterized by malnutrition and by disease due essentially to lack of calories and vitamins, the chemical composition of coca not only allows indigenous people to withstand cold and hunger, but also provides them with a valuable source of vitamins and energy.
