About Product

Cha de Bugre leaf powder is an herbal supplement from Brazil’s Amazon rainforest.

The Cha de Bugre tree leaves have been used as a traditional tonic in South America for centuries.

Today, Cha de Bugre is gaining popularity in the United States as a food with substantial nourishing qualities.

Constituents of Cha De Bugre include:

Minerals: Potassium
Phytochemicals: Allantoin, Allantoic Acid, Caffeine, Plant Sterols

This product is 100% natural and minimally processed: Taste, smell, texture, and color vary from batch to batch.

Suggested Use: The traditional preparation is to infuse one teaspoon into a tea and drink it 30 minutes before a meal. Mix one teaspoon with juice and yogurt, or add it to your favorite smoothie. Some people find Cha de Bugre to have a stimulative effect, so it is best not to take it before bedtime.

Other preparations:

Infusion: Use the ratio of 1 tablespoon of product for every 8 ounces of distilled water. Bring water to a boil and then take off the stove. Put tea in a pot or a mug, fill it with water, and cover it for 15 minutes. (This method is specific for whole-leaf herbs and teas)

Decoction: Use the ratio of 1 tablespoon of herb for every 10 ounces of water. Put all ingredients into a pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover & lower to a simmer for 20-30 minutes. Turn the heat off and allow the mixture to sit for another 10 minutes. Strain and serve (this method is specific for barks and roots).

Tincture: This method can take 15 to 30 days. You will need three items (a mason jar with a cover, the herb/herbs of your choice, and liquid for extracting). The extracting liquid can be alcohol, alcohol/ water combo, vinegar, or vegetable glycerin. Take the product and fill the jar ¾ full, add the liquid of your choice, and close the jar. Then shake the jar, so everything is well mixed. Give the jar a good 5-minute shake several times a day. After 15 to 30 days, strain and bottle in glass tincture jars.

Mixing suggestion: To increase flavor and nutritional profile, combine with our lou Han Guo 7% extract powder.
