Where is Guayusa from?
Wayusa (Guayusa) is a sacred plant native to the Amazon rainforest. But her home is mainly in Ecuador. The local Indians from the Quechua tribe still believe that it is a plant that supports dreams and protects against evil spirits. Maybe that's why she got the name "Night Watchman".
The Quechua Indians prepare this traditional drink in the morning after waking up. They boil it, boil it for a long time, and then drink it at daybreak. It's about a ritual when everyone sits in a circle and tells dreams of the previous night. Together they try to understand the dreams.
Many people confuse this plant with the well-known mate shrub (yerba), but the effects differ in some respects. You will find many stimulants in Wayusa, such as caffeine, theobromine, etc., but also a very strong dose of L-Theanine. L-Theanine contributes to the production of alpha waves in the brain, thanks to which there is better blood flow to the brain and this supports thinking. Many people have independently observed other positive effects on the body and had positive experiences with Wayusa. Try Wayusa tea from Prague and see the effects for yourself.

How is Wayusa prepared?
Although it has already been said that Wayusa is in some respects similar to mate tea, the preparation is different. If you want to get as much of the active ingredients from the plant as possible, cook it over low heat in a large saucepan at dawn. Then pour it into a glass and drink freely throughout the day. Wayusa tea will surely surprise you with its unusual taste and smell.
Where can Wayusa be bought?
We have restricted the sale of Wayusa for the time being. However, it is possible to find them in some healthy food e-shops or in stores specializing in nutrition.
What is Guayusa?
You will also very often find Wayusa by the middle name Green Guayusa. The effects of Guayusa have been known for thousands of years and slowly but surely this miraculous plant is also beginning to appear in our country. Leaves of the tree Ilex Guayusa are used for the preparation. It is an evergreen tree that can grow up to 30 m. Ilex Guayusa belongs to holly, so the drink can be reminiscent of the much-sung yerba mate. This plant has oval leaves and tiny white flowers that later turn into bold red fruits.
Outside of Ecuador, it is also at home in some areas of Peru or Colombia. It is intentionally grown in jungle gardens and thanks to that it is possible to introduce it in an organic quality. You don't need any artificial means of cultivation that could significantly affect its quality. Each harvest of the leaves is done by hand, about once every four years. The harvested leaves are left directly in the sun to dry. The result of this process is premium organic quality leaves that are the best you can give the body. Its healing properties have been known for more than 1500 years.
