Ezekiel 47:12 "And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine."


Nicknames: catuaba; Please note that there is another ethnobotanical out there that is referred to by this name "Catuaba" as well.. Please don't confuse the two..


Classification: Perennial;


Plant Family: Meliaceae; Genus: Trichilia; Species: T. catigua;


Ethnobotany: The plant is native to Brazil.[3] Occult Warning: T. catigua was used by the occult.[2] Specifically, T. catigua was used used in shamanism, which is a form of witchcraft.[1] What exactly the shamans use these plants for can pretty much tell you whether or not they produce a narcotic, hallucinogen(deliriant), psychedelic, or poison.. I know from experience in reading and learning about shamanism(in my past). This plant specifically is used in folk medicine as an aphrodisiac and stimulant[1]. Some really incredible scientific findings regarding the pharmacology of this ethnobotanical have been uncovered in the lab by researchers. Catuaba from Trichilia catigua was found to increase the release of Serotonin as well as Dopamine in rats!.[5] It's also known in indigenous medicine practices to be good for: fatigue, stress, impotence and memory deficit[6]


Natural Habitat: Brazil;[3]


OG Observations: Low dopamine and serotonin can induce symptoms of fatigue, stress, impotence, and memory deficit...[7], which are all of the things that the indigenous cultures were using Trichilia catigua to treat.. Interesting isn't it? Because the science shows that it increased dopamine and serotonin in rats.[4]


Phytochemicals & Medicinal Properties: The herb has been shown to be neuroprotective to rats by researchers.[4] Trichilia catigua produces flavalignans, flavan-3-ols and flavonoids, which are associated with its anti-oxidant activity.[6] Each one of these individual components has its own series of medicinal properties and applications. When you use herbal medicine, you're consuming a soup of medicines, rather than one single drug. Pre-clinical studies have been conducted on T. catigua, and researchers have concluded that it produces: anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, and antinociceptive properties, and is pro-memory and neuroprotective against ischemia, as well as oxidative stress.[6] The study confirms for us, some of the indigenous beliefs, whether or not they are true. In one study researchers concluded that: "Antioxidant and anticholinesterase activity was observed for all extracts".[6]
