Description
Calea Zacatechichi, also known as Mexican dream
herb, is a small white flowering shrub found throughout select regions of
Mexico and central America.
Calea Telifornica and Calea Zacatechichi are in
fact the same species, the latter being the Hispanic term stemming from the
indigenous name of the plant. The herb is also known as bitter grass for its
famously bitter taste.
The herbal has been used therapeutically for
various ailments and for it’s onirogenic properties.
The locals often brew the leaves, flowers and
even the roots of the plant ceremonially in tea or simply smoke the herbal to
connect with the divine holy spirits through it’s dream boosting affects.
Some scientific studies suggest potential
nootropic properties and enhancement in dream recall for this Calea
Zacatechichi plant.
Mechanism
of action
A multitude of therapeutic alkaloids such as
Chlorogenic acid, Rutin and various flavonoids have been identified in this
holy herb and are likely responsible for the herbs hypoglycaemic properties.
Chlorogenic acid is a polyphenol found in coffee,
black tea and a confirmed acetylcholine esterase inhibitor with neuroprotective
affects.
Calea Zacatechichi contains another compounds
called Rutin, a glycoside molecule naturally occurring in other plants such as
buckwheat and rhubarb.
Studies have confirmed that both Rutin and
Chlorogenic acid are strong antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents.
The exact mechanism of how Calea Zacatechichi
induces dreaming is unknown and unfortunately, there has been very scientific
research and literature on this issue. However, we speculate the herbs high
Chlorogenic acid concentration could be responsible for this activity.
Chlorogenic acid is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor that causes acetylcholine
activity in the brain to increase and it its this brain activity in the
Neocortex and Hippocampus that are so strongly associated with dreaming and
sleep.
