Guayusa (Ilex guayusa)

Ethically Wild-Harvested Guayusa Leaf (Ilex guayusa) from Ecuador

Guayusa pronounced “WAH-U-SAH”, is an excellent tasty and stimulating drink. Unlike other caffeinated drinks, most people never experience the so-called “Shakes” or “Jitters” associated with over-caffeination. In many areas of the Amazon people use the herb like green tea to sharpen their instincts during long travel expeditions, hard days work and it’s called “The Night Watchman's Plant” for a very good reason, its ability to keep you alert and awake during the night. Interestingly enough though it contains a high content of caffeine, Guayusa is a well-known dream herb used to help induce vivid prophetic dreams.
