Chanca piedra tea is honey yellow in color. The taste is rather bland. Slightly sour, a little grassy and slightly bitter.
Origins
This wild herb from Peru grows only around 30-60cm. It has elliptical leaves, round, slightly flattened fruits and small white or yellow flowers. Today, chanca piedra of the Phyllanthaceae family can also be found in India, tropical Africa, America and Southeast Asia. It has many names, including pitirishi, gale of the wind, stonebreaker, sasha foster, amarus, memeniran, tamalak, and makantowe.
For decades, chanca piedra has been used by the South American native tribes.
Since approximately 1960, it has been the subject of numerous studies, which indicate that it is a rich source of unique plant chemicals. It contains mainly biologically active lignans, glycosides, flavonoids, alkaloids, lipids, sterols and flavones.
