How to Chew Coca Leaves

If you have come to find out how to chew coca leaves the right way, you came to the right coca teashop website.

People in Peru and Bolivia are the traditional coca tea chewers. The whole process is native to South America where coca plants grow naturally in the Andes. Coca leaves are chewed here for their medicinal properties to cure high altitude sickness, boost energy and cure many other ailments.

Even though drinking coca tea will not get you high, chewing coca leaves with sodium bicarbonate can get you pretty wired up and feeling quiet euphoric. This is not the same high as one would experience with cocaine, but if you chew enough coca tea powder within a short period of time (40-60 minutes), you can get a real speedy buzz.

The good thing is that chewing coca leaves is not harmful to your health unlike snorting cocaine. The trick is to know how to chew coca leaves, which is the natural form of coca plant. Cocaine on the other hand is processed with many toxic and volatile chemicals (you can only imagine what it does to the user’s insides). Coca leaves are legal to grow and chew in Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador and Argentina.

Living in Peru and Bolivia

When living in the Andes mountains that have high altitude, the native people have come to rely on chewing coca leaves  to cure high altitude sickness and boost energy levels so they can work all day long. Since they were children, the locals learned how to chew coca leaves to revitalize energy levels. It’s very easy to find coca leaves in Peru and Bolivia because they are practically everywhere. You can find coca leaves at the airports, hotels, shops, markets and supermarkets. In fact, as soon as you land in Cusco, the locals will encourage you to drink and chew coca tea leaves. These whole coca leaves are cheap and plentiful.

Chewing whole coca leaves is different to chewing coca tea powder. What you can do is, remove the stem on each leaf, roll up 3-4 leaves, put them into your mouth and start sucking on them. They call it “coca chewing” when in fact, it’s coca sucking. The traditional way is to hold the leaves on the right or left side of the cheeks (between the gums). Allow the dry leaves to absorb your saliva for the next 5 minutes. You can then add llipta or bi carb soda to “activate” the leaves. Your mouth will become numb within 10 minutes which tells you that coca leaves are “working.”

Health Benefits

Chewing coca leaves is good for you. Since coca is a natural and medicinal plant, your body will thank you it.

Strengthens And Whitens Teeth

Natural Energy Boosting Stimulant

When chewed or drunk as tea, coca burns free fatty acids for energy, while at the same time regulates blood glucose levels.

It also suppresses the appetite, stops thirst, headaches, nausea, lethargy, brain fog and pain.

Highly Nutritious Food

Coca leaves pack a lot of vitamins (C, E, B1 and B2) and minerals (iron, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus and calcium).

Local Anesthetic And Pain Relief

When you chew coca leaves or tea powder with a dash of llipta or sodium bicarbonate, you will feel it working because your entire mouth, tongue and even upper throat will become numb.

Oxygenates Blood

By chewing coca tea, it allows your body to absorb more oxygen. This is very useful for curing the dreaded altitude sickness that people experience in the Andes. High altitude sickness makes the user tired, have nausea, headaches and lethargy.

Pope Francis Likes It

When Pope Frances traveled to Bolivia in 2015, he  asked specifically to chew whole coca leaves after coca tea was offered. Under the 1961 UN Convention on Narcotic Drugs, coca leaves are banned outside of South America, however, coca can be grown for medicinal and religious use in Peru, Colombia and Bolivia. The natives in Peru and Bolivia treat coca as a sacred plant from God.

In 2009, Coca plant was officially declared a ‘cultural patrimony’ in the Bolivian constitution. Evo Morales, a Bolivian president, who was once a coca farmer, has been campaigning to have coca leaves decriminalized. Coca is not like cocaine, much like trees are not paper. For over 3000 years, South America’s natives have made the most of the coca plant and it’s medicinal use. Coca leaves are an effective medicine and locals appreciate it.
