Youpon Leaf for kratom breaks!

Post by brave777 »

Alright, i got some really good news, been over 24 hour and my bones feeling very well with no wd's. I got 3 tree's of Youpon holly planted from a nursery place everyone can get. Today was first time i picked some leafs. went online and researched how to dry them and made some tea. It feels great, same boat as Yerba Mate, or Guayusa leaf.

10 benefits of Youpon Leaf!

Collected some fresh Youpon Leafs from garden.

Image
Put them into an oven on 300f for 10=13 min.

Image
This is how it looks like when taken out. You can crunch them with hand if need too.

Image
Put it into a pot on hi, once boiling, reduce it to simmer level for 20 min.

Image
Once done, all leafs drop to the bottom of the pot.

Image
Final result, buttery roasted flavor, with raw honey it makes it A+.

Thanks, it just might be.

Also out of curiosity, i checked amazon how much youpon leaf tea is and the price is kind of wacky.
https://www.amazon.com/s?k=youpon+leaf&ref=nb_sb_noss

I prefer if you got garden plant 1 or 2 youpon holly tree's and reap benefits every year if can. At my nursery each tree cost me 99.99$. I got 3 of them and don't regret. if your on a budget, they do sell Dwarf bush, like 25$. that will work too. the benefits are very good to not buy a tree so if can, look around nursery's i am sure you can find one that sells it. that's if you can. You could mix it up with Guayusa leaf, since they are both cousins. Or even Yerba Mate, but i dont like how yerba mate taste even thought i make some once in a while.Guayusa Leaf very cheap thought 20$ for a pound first bag off amazon. I tested all of them and any of them will help reduce WD's very well.

Yes, i like it better then coffee, it taste much nicer then most tea's/ aromatic buttery flavor full of nutritional value. Tasty roasty flavor, all you got to do is put it in oven on 300f for 8-13 min, depends how roast you want it. Or if you want light version of it, just leave the leafs on table for two weeks then make some. Youpon is booming in my area, and i am glad to see it is. I had no crash from it like coffee does me. And nothing compares from amazon bought youpon, i tried 2 brands and didnt like it much as i loved it from my garden. Worth a try and see how it makes you feel. Plain is good but i prefer adding one table spoon of honey into my Hugh cup, it just makes it so much more smooth sweet enjoyable flavor. If you got some growing near you wild, collect a bunch. you wont regret. Just avoid red berry's, if it happens to be in tea pot, it might make you want to puke, so try not to collect that.

edit: it works allot better with "FreshField" black seed oil that Ballz talked about back then. Worth a try and see how it makes you feel when on kratom breaks.
