Do you ever feel the need for a natural pick-me-up? If you are like me, you would prefer a natural way to power up that does not lead to a crash. Would it not be wonderful to be reminded of one’s roots and culture when grabbing a quick bite?
I am deeply connected to my African roots and am proud of my heritage. I feel privileged to write about Kola Nuts, a perfect energy and focus booster native to Tropical Africa. In my childhood days, my mother would often tell me stories about the powers of the Kola nut, which aside from being an energy boost, increases focus and alertness
Kola Nut: Nature’s Perfect Power Booster
The Kola nut, cola nut, garcinia kola cola and Bizzy nut are naturally caffeinated superfoods rich in antioxidants, fibre, and plant protein. They come from the evergreen kola tree, which is found in rainforests of Africa. Inside the tree’s star-shaped fruits are the seeds or Kola nuts. The nut is about the same size as a chestnut.
Kola nuts offer numerous benefits, such as:-
1. Even the smallest kola nut can spark great energy.
2. They act as a secret ingredient for natural, sustained energy.
3. They boost energy while relaxing the mind without causing any crashes.
4. One stays alert and focused after consuming these nuts.
5. Small pieces chewed before meals aid in digestion.
6. They increase the body’s metabolism and fuel weight loss and wellness journeys.
7. They are added as a flavouring agent for most cola sodas and energy drinks in the Western world.
Kola Nuts – A Taste Of Tradition
The Kola nut has a bitter taste but becomes sweeter with each chew. It is an important cultural symbol for certain ethnic groups of Nigeria. They signify hospitality and are a crucial part of certain ceremonies. Breaking the Kola nut makes people feel welcome in villages and gatherings.
One can find many vendors selling the Kola Nuts at strategic points like traffic lights and bus stops all over the streets of Western Africa.
