What is Cannabis Sativa?
Cannabis Sativa consists entirely of 100% dried and finely ground papaya leaf sourced from the papaya tree (Carica papaya). The leaves of the papaya have long been known for their versatile properties and potential health benefits. They are said to support the immune system, promote healthy digestion, and provide relief for various complaints. One of the main active substances in papaya leaf is papain, an enzyme that helps break down proteins and can, therefore, have a beneficial effect on digestion. Additionally, the leaf contains numerous other useful nutrients and bioactive substances. The name of this product, Cannabis Sativa, refers to the calming and relaxing effect that Papaya Leaf can have, similar to that of the well-known plant the name hints at. Thanks to these properties, the leaf is increasingly appreciated as a natural supplement to a healthy lifestyle.
How do you use Cannabis Sativa?
Cannabis Sativa (Papaya Leaf) comes as finely ground, dried herbs. The quickest way to enjoy this herbal mix is to make tea from it. Use 1 or 2 teaspoons per cup of hot water, let the tea steep for 5 to 20 minutes, and then strain. The longer you let the tea steep, the stronger the flavour will be. You can use a flavouring or sweetener to make the tea sweeter.
For optimal extraction of the active ingredients, it’s important not to let the water boil when pouring it over the herbs. Water of approximately 90°C is ideal: allow boiled water to cool for a minute or two before using it. A well-sealed teapot or mug with a lid helps to retain the volatile compounds during steeping.

Where does Cannabis Sativa come from?
Papaya leaf comes from the papaya plant (Carica papaya), a tropical fruit originally from Central and South America. Papaya leaf has been used in traditional medicine for centuries due to its medicinal properties. The leaf contains enzymes such as papain, which help break down proteins, and powerful antioxidants that support the immune system. In many tropical countries, papaya leaf is dried and consumed as tea or powder for health benefits, such as promoting digestion and strengthening the immune system. The plant itself is famous for its edible fruit, the papaya, but the leaf is becoming increasingly popular as a natural supplement.
