Chasteberry Berries (Monk's Pepper)

Chaste tree berry extract has been known to contain an active principle that binds to D2 dopamine receptors in the hypothalamus/anterior pituitary, inhibiting the release of prolactin. This makes for interesting reasearch of phytohormonal actions on "the happiness neurotransmittors" like serotonin and dopamine retention in our bodies when chaste berries are added to the mix. Can be made into a tea, added to food, or mixed with any of our elixirs, kava, or kanna for a heightened experience. This product would be referred to as a 'potentiator' in the entheogenic community, and we are proud to be the first to bring you this exciting plant.

Helps to regulate women's hormones. Can reduce balance progesterone and oestrogen production by the ovaries. Helps relieve menstrual pain and pre-menstrual tenstion symtpoms.

The Greeks and Romans used this plant to encourage chastity and thought of it as capable of warding off evil.
