Let’s talk about benefits of Red Cola nut.
Cola nut is the seed of the cola nut plant. Cola nut is used widely in Nigeria and many West African countries as part of traditional hospitality, cultural, social ceremonies and to welcome guest.
Cola nut is used for short-term relief of fatigue, depression, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), melancholy, lack of normal muscle tone (atony), exhaustion, dysentery, a type of diarrhea called atonic diarrhea, weight loss, and migraine headaches.
Kola nuts have a bitter taste when chewed fresh. When they’re dried, the taste becomes milder and they reportedly smell of nutmeg.
The excessive consumption of cola nut is harmful to health. Indeed, because of the caffeine it contains, kola nut is generally not recommended for people who suffer from heart disease, insomnia, anxiety disorders, gastric ulcers or high blood pressure.
Unfortunately, the kola nut is ignored by the new generation even though it has incredible virtues.
1. A stimulant
Cola nut is a food rich in caffeine. With the caffeine equivalent of two large cups of coffee, this nut, popular at West African weddings, will keep you in shape all day!
2. An antimicrobial agent
According to some studies, the biochemical content of cola nuts could help fight against various pathologies resistant to antibiotics.
3. It facilitates digestion
Some researchers believe that kola nut powder and extract promote the production of stomach acid, thereby increasing the efficiency of digestive enzymes in the stomach.
4. An anti-inflammatory
Decaffeinated Cola nut extracts have been proven by many researchers to have an anti-inflammatory effect and increase cell life.
5. A bronchodilator
The theophylline present in the kola nut acts on the relaxation of smooth muscles, airways, and blood vessels. It can thus be useful for people suffering from certain respiratory problems such as asthma or bronchitis.
6. Aid in Weight Loss
Although caffeine has long been known as an appetite suppressant to a certain degree, kola nut extracts have also been connected with increased fat-burning in the body, possibly due to the positive impact on metabolism that these nuts can have.
7. It has a diuretic effect
The cola seed allows a better elimination of water (without causing damage to the liver and kidneys) and non-essential nutrients and thus promotes weight loss.
8. It fights against migraines
The theobromine and caffeine in kola nut can decrease migraine pain by dilating the blood vessels in the brain.
9. May help fight glaucoma
Glaucoma is a condition of increased pressure within the eyeball, causing a gradual loss of sight, and can result in permanent blindness if left untreated. A study in the Middle East African Journal of Ophthalmology, showed that bitter kola is useful for reducing the pressure in the eye for newly diagnosed patients, and was as effective as more conventional treatments. It is important to note that you must follow professional medical advice and treatment if you have glaucoma, even if the condition is newly diagnosed.
10. It’s an aphrodisiac
Known to be an aphrodisiac, cola seed acts as a nervous stimulant and may be recommended in cases of dysfunction of the reproductive organs.
