Cola nitida (Kola nut) has been used historically to increase the capacity for physical exertion and for enduring fatigue without food. Historcally it is said to help to strengthen the body, contribute to physical well-being and support energetic alertness.[1]  In countries like Nigeria and Cameroon, the chewing of Kola nuts is an important social gesture. These nuts accompany political meetings, business meetings and many rituals. Of course, Kola nuts also became known around the world as one of the main ingredients of Coca Cola.

Effects

Kola nut is a strong energizing substance. Like coffee it stimulates and reduces the need of sleep, but the psychoactive effect is stronger and different. It increases the mental and physical power, f.e. with sports, dancing or even sex. It burns the body resources, that’s why kola nut can be used as fatburner and during diets.

Usage

One teaspoon mixed in coffee, tea or other liquids gives a nice energetic kick. Higher dosages increase the kick. Inbetween 2-6 teaspoons is RDA (recommended daily allowance)
You can sweeten your drink by adding some honey or mix it into yoghurt.
Kola nut can be combined with guarana or ephedra very well.
