Cola is a genus of the family Malvaceae with approximately **0 to
**5 species occurring in the evergreen lowland and montane forest
of continental Africa, primarily tropical Africa.where Cola vera is
the most common species. It is native to West Africa. Cola nuts are
seed pods of the plant harvested primarily from the species Cola
nitida and Cola acuminata. It's chewed most by Nigerians.
Kola nut is a caffeine-containing nut of two evergreen trees of the
cocoa family. Kola nut is a relative of the Malvaceae plant family.
The Cola acuminata is an evergreen tree of about *0 meters in
height, and has long and ovoid leaves pointed at both the ends that
have a leathery texture. The trees have yellow flowers with purple
spots, and star-shaped fruit. Inside the fruit, about a dozen round
or square seeds can be found in a white seed shell. The nuts aroma
is sweet and rose-like. The first taste is bitter, but sweetens
upon chewing. The nut can be boiled to extract the cola. This tree
reaches *5 meters in height and is propagated through seeds. C.
nitida and C. acuminata can easily be interchanged with other Cola
species.
The kola nut has a bitter flavor and contains caffeine. It is
chewed in many West African cultures, individually or in a group
setting. It is often used ceremonially, presented to tribal chiefs
or presented to guests.It is preferred among African Muslims, who
are forbidden to drink alcohol. Chewing kola nut can ease hunger
pangs. Frequent chewing of the kola nut can also lead to stained
teeth. Among the urban youth of West Africa, kola nut is becoming
less popular.
The fruit of the kola tree, a tree probably originally from western
tropical Africa. The kola nut is a capsule-shaped fruit composed of
fleshy, irregularly shaped seeds. The seeds are pink, red or white
when fresh, and become brown and hard once they are dried. Their
bitter and astringent taste is why these seeds are called nuts.
Serving Ideas
Kola nuts are used for chewing by many indigenous populations in
Africa. They ease hunger and thirst, eliminate fatigue and provide
energy by stimulating the muscles and nerves. Elsewhere the nuts
are used to make refreshing drinks called "colas." Coca-Cola is one
of the most well-known of these drinks.

kolanin.

Outside mainland Africa, some species are cultivated for their nuts
in Brazil, Jamaica and elsewhere in the humid tropics.
Kola nuts are often used to treat whooping cough and asthma. The
caffeine present acts as a bronchodilator, expanding the bronchial
air passages.
Kola nuts are perhaps best known to Western culture as a flavouring
ingredient and one of the sources of caffeine in cola and other
similarly flavoured beverages, although the use of kola (or kola
flavoring) in commercial cola drinks has become uncommon. However,
recently the use of Kola nut has been reintroduced, most notably in
Whole Foods Market **5 Cola as part of their trend to use natural
rather than artificial ingredients. It is also used in Barr's Red
Kola, Red Bull's new Simply Cola, Harboe Original Taste Cola, Foxon
Park Kola, Blue Sky Organic Cola, Sprecher's Puma Kola, Virgil's
Real Cola, and Cricket Cola.
Bitter kola is another type of kola found in Igbo land of Nigeria.
Its biological name is Garcinia kola. Like the kola nut it is
produced from a big tree. Unlike the kola nut it is monocotyledon.
Although it is eaten widely for different purposes it has nothing
to do with the tradition of any known ethnic group. It is medicinal
as well as has some aspect of spiritual healing factors attached to
it. Although modern sciences could try to disapprove of the belief
but the issue is that "It works" whether you belief or not. I am
glad to proclaim that my friends from different geographical areas
who had in the past argued the possibilities of what I claimed
bitter kola could do are now addicts in bitter kola usage. One
general remark is that bitter kola is an Anti-Biotic. It can be
eaten at anytime and again no side effects under normal condition.
It is one of those medicines that have no over dose.
To spiritualists and knowledge seekers if you want to know what
bitter kola could do find out we offer subscription which gives you
the opportunity to buy and have instruction on what it does and how
to use it.
Medicinally anybody can eat as many as bitter kola as he or she
prefers to consume by pilling off the outer coating of bitter kola
but be mindful that as the name sounds it is really bitter. However
if you can have fun eating bitter kola
