A study by The American Journal of Epidemiology showed coca's usefulness in treating gastrointestinal ailments, as well as motion and altitude sickness. They found it to be a fast acting antidepressant and helpful in combating hypoglycemia and diabetes. Furthermore, coca leaves deliver healthy doses of vitamins A, C, B and E, phosphorous, iron, potassium, magnesium, calcium and protein.
High grade coca 
This brand of coca has a unique organic flavor and very high quality, unlike the other S American brands I have tried which were good, but the difference in quality with MacMate is obvious. This is claimed to be organic and pesticide free and the flavor is richer and more pungent.
Hopefully this review wont get to Carol Blenda's head to the point where she becomes more stuck up than she already is.
Nice tasty tea! 
This coca leaf tea has a robust flavor, far more so than I anticipated. Not bitter, just richer and fuller than most teas I have had. It has a very mild stimulating effect, somewhere in between coffee and regular tea. However, it is far more soothing than coffee; no jitters or shakiness. I began having it in the mornings at work, and found it gave me the energy that I rely on coffee for, without feeling wired or sped up. I can see why coca is so sacred to the Peruvians; there is a definite medicinal quality to it. Not in flavor, just in how it effects the body. Overall, I would say that tea drinkers (or coffee addicts looking to get off the Bean) should give this a try. Tastes great, and does wake you up a bit. I recommend!
