Coca - From the cure to the drug

Many people immediately associate the word Coca with the drink Coca-Cola. This association is also not entirely wrong, because in the beginning of the successful drink, the leaves of coca were still used as ingredients. In the true sense, however, the term Coca means the dried leaves of coca smoke. For millennia Coca is used by the indigenous peoples of Peru, Bolivia and Colombia as natural jungle medicine. The leaves are placed under the tongue and are intended to relieve hunger, facilitate breathing and keep awake. In addition, Coca is used by indigenous peoples as a medicine for toothache, abdominal pain, depression and rheumatism. In Germany the possession and the cultivation of the Cocastrauches is forbidden, since from the leaves the drug Cocaine can be isolated. (Vb)
