Vitamin D and covid
I'm sure we've all heard how vitamin d can help against covid, but wow, just saw a podcast that broke down just how much more at risk vitamin d deficient folks are. And supposedly 70% of Americans are deficient. Maybe even more since staying inside due to quarantine. Anyways, hope everyone is aware of this and are doing what they need to do to get enough vitamin d.
Edit: podcast was JRE episode #1474. Worth a listen if you're into the health sciences.

I take Vit D3 + K2. The K2 helps the D3 absorb better.

Re: Vitamin D and covid
I spend 600 on tea this month.. do i regret ? Nope. i am going to seal them with some oxygen packs and open when i need some. Yes, some really good Guayusa string dried, still on the string full leafs, got all the sun love possible... WOOOWWW it blew me out of the water, nothing compares from amazon.com, the best Guayusa hands down. Perfect for any time kratom break... mix it uop with some potent crushed red kratom leaf and your in heaven for sure, maybe heaven leaf should start carrying this potent mix, lol, jk. Also got a kilo of 18 herbs with best picked herbs, and it tastes super duper amazing.
Just in case if someone wants the God version of Guayusa leaf that is string dried
https://www.wakingherbs.com/product/ile ... of-leaves/
or the best amazing 18 herbs tea called Horchata
https://www.wakingherbs.com/product/hor ... erbal-tea/
you can also get shredded Guayusa leaf and its way stronger then amazon stuff as well.
https://www.wakingherbs.com/product/gua ... a-huayusa/
select shredded form...
I have all 3 of these and hands down nothing but must have kitchen alternatives for kratom, even if you stop kratom for one year or two, or for good this is heaven leaf to wake up too... 18 herbs smells amazing and taste super duper awesome somewhat flowery and its light red in color when you boikl some. Guayusa on the other hand, can replace any tea out there. Also good Guaysa is know to give good vivid dreams but good luck falling asleep on it, its best used for energy and extra awesome clarity, hunters in amazon jungles back in the day use to drink this and go hunt at night. Also makes you extra shop, not to mention all the good benefits it has on its own. And yes it has caffeine as well, no more feeling wacky from coffee and heart issues... Sorry guys i just got this Guayusa last week and can't get enough of it i think the whole world needs to know. and no i get paid nothing for advertising them, its not even that, its quality stuff and i think this forums deserves only the best.
Also its takes about half to a month to get your stuff, I really hope some vendors can buy BULK from waking herbs and resell it local in usa so i can get it in few days... Please if some vendors read this, take a look and give it a try, might make you some good money in a long run the more people become aware if this Gold.
I think all vendors should carry highest quality possible for Guayusa leaf and the 18 herbs but Guayusa 100%, its the best seller. and very HOT HOT. I love Fused flora a lot because of options and you can also get 100 grams not only kratom but Akuamma seed and other things that adds to discount, why not make guayusa 250grms to be added with you other 3 bags of kratom.. Good idea? I really wish some vendors pick and take these idea's , its for ya'll...

Health Benefits of Guayusa Tea
1. Boosts Energy
This South American tea is famous for its boosting energy levels (1). Guayusa is a common ingredient in energy drinks in America. This tea can help boost mental clarity and increase physical energy. Guayusa has caffeine content that is higher than black tea, but lower than a strong cup of coffee.
Guayusa also contains the amino acid L-theanine, which releases caffeine more smoothly and evenly. This helps to eliminate the spikes and drops associated with coffee consumption.
Guayusa also contains the alkaloids theobromine and theophylline. Both of these chemical compounds are known stimulants that help to improve concentration and increase energy.
Theobromine is commonly found in dark chocolate and offers a smooth, full-bodied flavor. Theophylline is found in green tea and is known for its uplifting nature.
2. Chock Full of Nutrients
Guayusa tea is known as a healthy elixir thanks to its composition of a host of nutrients. Guayusa contains essential amino acids that improve mood and induce relaxation. This tea also has twice as many antioxidants as green tea.
Antioxidants have been shown to boost cardiovascular health and the immune system. These antioxidants also prevent premature aging, protect the nervous system from degenerative diseases, and inhibit certain types of cancer.
3. Eliminates Free Radicals
Antioxidants in guayusa help to eliminate free radicals in the body (2). All human cells are surrounded by an outer layer that contains balanced electrons. When these cells experience an imbalance in electrons, they bind to other cells to improve cellular stability.
Free radicals easily combine with these damaged cells causing a series of problems. Free radicals have been linked to cancer as well as fine lines and wrinkles. These free radicals are cause by drinking alcohol, smoking, and eating an unhealthy diet.
Free radicals cause oxidative stress, which is basically the human body's form of rust. As we get older, oxidative stress increases and more systems become less efficient and the risk of illness increases.
Antioxidants in guayusa work to remove these free radicals from the human body. They boost digestive health and support the kidneys and intestines to eliminate these harmful cells.
4. Aids Digestion
Guayusa tea helps to streamline digestive processes. Guayusa has anti-inflammatory properties that are responsible for its digestive health benefits (3). Guayusa decreases inflammation in the stomach that can cause stomach cramps and bloating.
Inflammation in the intestines can also result in diarrhea and inadequate absorption of nutrients. Guayusa helps to reduce this inflammation to improve digestion.
5. Boosts Heart Health
Guayusa helps to protect the heart due to its concentration of theanine. A study published in the Tropical Journal of Pharmaceutical Research demonstrated the effects of theanine on heart function (4).
Theanine was shown to lower high blood pressure by reducing inflammation in arteries and blood vessels. It has also demonstrated anti-diabetic effects by regulating blood sugar.
6. May Accelerate Weight Loss
Guayusa may help increase weight loss thanks to its caffeine content. Researchers used mice and rats in examining the effects of guayusa on weight loss in two studies (5). Results showed that guayusa lowered triglycerides and lipid levels by increasing fat burning processes.
A second study published in the International Journal of Toxicology found that caffeine and theobromine helped to decrease body weight and increase food efficiency in female rats (6).
Side Effects of Guayusa
Guayusa is safe for adults in moderate amounts. Since guayusa has high amounts of caffeine and stimulant properties, it is unsuitable for young children. Make sure to drink guayusa in moderate amounts to avoid negative effects from high levels of caffeine. Excess caffeine can cause high blood pressure, jitters, upset stomach, and anxiety. Do not drink guayusa if you have a sensitivity to caffeine.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Covid or anything bad, Guayusa is always there to improve your immunity. Hope everyone has a good day here.

Re: Vitamin D and covid
You will have zero regrets... ALL VENDORS should have it. there is such thing as string dried or dried differently, i really hope some vendors visit locations and get some sweet strings dried leaf in the sun. Or perfect it like kratom. I CAN TASTE THE DIFFERENCE. i tried over 6 brands and few brands were offs to very weak or to almost no effect. the once i posted are the strongest one i yet to find. the sting dried version.. I have a feeling this will get very popula here and will boom.. nice synergy with kratom as well. Adds that zync KICK, on its own its perfect brew to take breaks from kratom cold turkey. No need to lower kratom dose, just stop. Make a strong brew of Guyusa leaf tea and sip.Kruh-Tom wrote:Nice, sounds like ya'll were already prepared!

Can i be more clear? What else can i say to get the point across. THIS SHIT IS POWERFUL!
Its also tropical plants can we have millions of vendors indonesea plants Guoysia tree's with kratom>? if kratom erver gets banned their, that can be their next income tree.
