Known for its bitter taste and health benefits, Bitter Kola is increasingly in demand across Europe, Asia, and North America for pharmaceutical use, natural medicine, and nutritional products.
🌿 What is Bitter Kola?
Bitter Kola is a nut-like seed from the Garcinia kola tree, native to West and Central Africa. It has been used for centuries as a natural remedy for a wide range of ailments including respiratory issues, digestion, immune boosting, and general detoxification.
Its bitter taste comes from natural compounds such as kolaviron, which give it anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties.
