I have a few questions about the fresh leaves.
I've decided I would buy the white and green leaves for pain relief, but if I buy them fresh, how long do they keep?
I see how locals chew them fresh, by rolling them up, chewing them and then spitting out the fibrous material when their tongue goes numb.
Does the potency reduce if they dry out? If I happen to have dried leaves, can I pour hot water over them to make a tea?
This morning I chewed one leaf and smothered it in honey. It was very bitter but the honey helped. I deveined the leaf and I spit out the paste. Pain level was around a 8
After ten minutes I noticed a bit of pain relief. My ability to stand up and move around improved. There was no high or buzz. It was a mild relief from pain. Pain level was around a 5.
After thirty minutes there was a definite improvement over the pain. It was like night and day. However I never experienced any stimulant feeling. I didn't have any extra energy. Pain level was 3.
After an hour, there was still an improvement in pain relief, but certain parts of my body had a reduced pain. My hands and feet still had pain, but it was reduced. Pain was 2.
Overall I'm happy with the results from one leaf. I will maintain this for the next few hours to see how long the relief continues from the one leaf.
I would describe the changes in my pain as a definite improvement.
Hey! My package just arrived! I'm excited to try it out. I'm going to video it because this might be a testimonial usable.
I've been wracked with pain for 32+ years, every since my USMC days. The pain is steady all day long and can be so painful that I have difficulty getting up and walking.
I'm going to try 3 leaves, coated with some honey, to see how things work first.
I'll let you know.
