There are 14 alkaloids found in coca tea leaves. All these alkaloids work together in synergy to boost energy, promote weight loss and fat burning as well as heal a number of illnesses and health conditions.
We will go through each alkaloid found within coca leaves.
1) Atropine or Scopolamine (C17 H33 N O3): Diminishes tremors and symptoms of Parkinson´s disease, reduces saliva secretion, heart rate increase, dilates the pupils.
2) Benzoiloxitropina: Breaks down inulin, invigorates, optimizes the consumption and digestion of carbohydrates, boosts functions of pancreas which regulates weight.
3) Benzoin: Prevents and heals gastritis and stomach ulcers, speeds up formation of muscle cells. Reduces swelling (inflammation) of the throat and breathing passages.
4) Cocaine (C17 H31 N O4): The methyl ester of benzoyl-ecgonine, a crystallized alkaloid that stimulates the central nervous system, inhibits nerve conduction, which is why it’s a local anesthetic. Metabolize uric acid, reduces symptoms and treats arthritis, rheumatism, gout, arteriosclerosis and osteoporosis.
5) Cocamina (C15 H12 N O2): A highly volatile alkaloid, which promotes sedation.
6) Conine (C8 H15 N): An analgesic alkaloid that acts directly on the central nervous system, has natural antidepressant properties.
7) Cuscohigna: Acts like pectin, effective against diarrhea and stomach aches, a powerful antioxidant that combats free radicals.
8) Ecgonine (C9 H15 N O3): An atropine derivative with the carboxyl at C-3 of pyridine, metabolizes fats and carbohydrates, responsible for promoting weight loss in regular coca leaf chewers. Improves the functions of the pancreas and natural pancreatic enzymes.
9) Erhitroxina: Acts similar to globulin (blood proteins), promotes a healthy immune system, balances white and red blood cells.
10) Higrina: Responsible for stimulating the salivary gland, an effective tonic for the larynx and throat, raises oxygen levels to the lungs and a key alkaloid to cure the high altitude sickness.
11) Pyrydina (C9 H5 N): Boosts mental alertness, focus and brain function. Pyrydina alkaloids found in coca tea leaves increase the volume of blood supply, resulting in improved overall organ, skin and muscle health.
12) Quinoline (C9 H7 N): Promotes healthy teeth and gums as well as oral health. Prevents tooth decay due to high levels of vitamin A, phosphorus and calcium found naturally in coca leaves.
13) Tropacocaína: Anti-cancer, anti-tumor and anti-neoplastic effects on the body. This alkaloid prevents cancer formation in damaged and mutated cells.
14) Reserpine: Has a calming effect, releases of catecholamine and serotonin, improves kidney function, regulates blood pressure, stops fatigue and thirst.
A mentioned previously, there are at least 14 alkaloids found in coca tea leaves. These alkaloids all play an important role in making sure that when you consume coca, you get the full spectrum health effects. In contrast, when taking the drug cocaine, you only consume one purified alkaloid, hence why cocaine can be dangerous but not coca tea leaves.
