Coca is not cocaine. . .

. . . said president of Bolivia Evo Morales recently on the world convention. Yes it does contain some alkaloids of cocaine but in the volume is less than 1 %. Chewing of coca cause local numbness and kill the hunger and thirst. Tea made of coca is very refreshing but chewing the fresh leaves from the coca fields around Coroico while hiking in this beautiful surrounding is the best :)
