Guayusa + Sagan Dale
This is the transcontinental blend of South American Guayusa and Siberian-Mongol White Wings.
Containing not just caffeine and l-theanine (a biochemical blend similar to green tea) but also Theobromine – the compound in Cacao most responsible for its heart-warming and opening effects – Guayusa is a SUPERFOOD POWERHOUSE.
A look through the research about Sagan Dale shows it is has antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulating, antioxidant and adaptogenic properties… but its effect is improved significantly with the kind and gentle Guayusa.
Guayusa was spread across the south American continent by indigenous medicine men who knew of its virtues and properties, long before the Inca appeared (and therefore before the damned conquistadores!). Guayusa is known as a lucid dreaming herb as well, in fact the Kichwa tribe wake up with it every day discussing their dreams of the previous night.
White Wings is a powerful herb as well, there is no denying it. The first time I tried it was in the evening, and sleep found me only the next day. I was blown away.
White Wings’ latin name is Rhododendron Adamsii. It has plenty of relatives peppered throughout the mountainous world – in Nepal a psychedelic honey exists from Rhododendron pollen!
