Annona Muricata (leaf)

A family from the Tsáchila tribe in Ecuador carefully selects our leaves. They plant and cultivate guanabana trees for their household’s consumption on their almost 2000 hectares reserve.

Native Use

The Tsáchila tribespeople in Ecuador traditionally eat the Annona muricata fruit. They believe the leaves help with different ailments. They also consider that regularly drinking tea from the leaves can help to regulate sugar blood levels and reduce back pain. They believe too that the leaves can protect you from diseases associated with uric acid, such as gout. They say when you rub it directly on the skin it may help with eczema and rheumatism.
