the story:
Graviola, also known as Soursop, Guanabana, or Annona Muricata, is a plant rich in both history and medicinal value. Annona has been called “the miracle tree”. Native to tropical regions, this ally possesses an alkaloid compound that is neuro-stimulant and, when properly used, can promote proper cognitive function and serve as a Nootropic. Their most attested medicinal use has been for decreasing the growth rate of cancer and thus retarding cancerous cells. Graviola is a medicine used traditionally in the folk remedies of places such as the Dominican Republic (Kiskeya), and one that we are quite familiar with. Growing up, we frequented the countryside of Kiskeya and had the great honor of witnessing family elders whipping up Soursop juices and spoon-pressed ‘smoothies’, with an aunt always reminding us how we needed to keep taking this for a healthy heart and to attack “los parasitos”. They told us infections, viruses, and unwanted fungi could not live in the body of one who spent time in daily communion with this medicine. Further medicinal applications lend the energy of these wise ones for treating nervousness, hypertension, malaria, nausea, and even herpes. Soursop is also a uterine stimulant and should be used cautiously by those who are pregnant or attempting to become pregnant (read guidelines below). This formulation is made with just one plant to allow full integration of the energetic profile of an ally as potent and healing as this. Graviola Leaf Tincture is one of our ancestral offerings which we share in remembrance and gratitude of the lands that have healed and sustained us for ages. The plant used for this tincture was grown in our home yard and with the careful attention of our parents’ love - may you feel loved, healed, and made whole with each drop.
