As we contemplated the idea of gathering up this collection of Mom’s recipes, we hesitated initially, not quite sure we would end up with a sufficient number to justify an actual book. As you can tell, though, much to our surprise and delight, Mom’s cooking repertoire exceeded our remembrances and expectations. Moreover, we’re positive that we have missed many that Dad and she incorporated into their lives after we kids left the nest. <P> Needless to say, we have thoroughly enjoyed reminiscing and becoming reacquainted with dishes we enjoyed while growing up, and it’s, now, our hope that, as you peruse this book, you too will find recipes that’ll become traditions for you and your family, creating memories of your very own.

Coca is a plant with a complex array of mineral nutrients, essential oils, and varied compounds with greater or lesser pharmacological effects – one of which happens to be the alkaloid cocaine, which in its concentrated, synthesized form is a stimulant drug with possible addictive properties.
Of all the plants introduced to the world by American Indian societies, few have been as controversial as the coca bush. Part of the Erythroxylum genus, the coca plant, whose leaves were first consumed by Andean Indians, is the source of the raw alkaloids that are refined to make cocaine.
In Coca: The Divine Plant of the Incas, W. Golden Mortimer, M.D. presents an exhaustive, encyclopedic look at the plant’s history and pharmacology. He traces its origins among the Native American peoples, who chewed the plant leaves for their stimulating and analgesic properties. From there, he examines the early European colonists’ first encounters with the plant, how it became an object of intense study among naturalists and scientists, and how chemists first used it to create cocaine extract.
Coca: The Divine Plant of the Incas includes:
• Traditional Indian uses for coca
• Early European explorers’ impressions of the plant, first damned as an immoral intoxicant, and then praised as a stimulant for work and travel
• The story of Angelo Mariani’s coca-leaf wine, which won accolades from European royalty and the Pope
• Botanical aspects of the coca plant varietals
• Soil, humidity, elevation, latitude, and other factors necessary for the plant’s growth
• How to grow and harvest the plant, and cure and store coca leaf
• Chemistry of the leaf, its alkaloids, and its extracts
• How to extract cocaine from coca leaf
• How to determine the purity and strength of coca extract
• Coca and muscular energy, exercise, diet, and fatigue
• Coca’s effects on the body, the brain, and the nervous system
• The pathology of cocaine use and addiction
Filled with rare illustrations and diagrams, Coca: The Divine Plant of the Incas is a thorough historical and scientific examination of this little-understood plant and its products. It belongs in the library of anyone interested in pharmacology, botany, natural studies, or the history and culture of indigenous Americans.
<i>Coca</i> explores the fascinating history of Coca, know as the Divine Plant of the Incas. The coca leaf has been chewed and brewed for tea traditionally for centuries among its indigenous peoples in the Andean region – and does not cause any harm and is beneficial to human health when the leaf is chewed. When chewed, coca is a mild stimulant and suppresses hunger, thirst, pain, and fatigue. It helps overcome altitude sickness, which is helpful in the Andes Mountains. It covers the Incan empire, its conquest by the Spaniards, the existence of coca within Incan society, early use of the drug, and the «present day» Indians of Peru. Coca chewing and drinking of coca tea is carried out daily by millions of people in the Andes without problems, and is considered sacred by indigenous cultures. Coca tea is widely used, even outside the Andean Amazon region.
Coca leaf was originally used in the soft drink Coca Cola for its stimulant effect, but was removed in 1903 it was removed and replaced by a decocainized coca extract. Traditional medical uses of coca are foremost as a stimulant to overcome fatigue, hunger, and thirst. It also is used as an anesthetic to alleviate the pain of headache and sores. Before stronger anesthetics were available, coca leaves were used for broken bones, childbirth, and during operations on the skull. Coca leaves have been used for centuries as a stimulant. Coca is traditionally cultivated in the lower altitudes of the eastern slopes of the Andes, or the highlands depending on the species grown. Since ancient times, its leaves have been an important trade commodity between the lowlands where it is grown and the higher altitudes where it is widely consumed by the Andean peoples of Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, and Bolivia.

Marijuana is a palliative, an analgesic with anti-inflammatory properties ——it alleviates pain without addictive effects experienced with narcotics. You might think of marijuana as being something like an herbal aspirin. In fact, it was used in folk medicines like aspirin for thousands of years to soothe aches and pains before aspirin was discovered. When hearing marijuana most of us call up an image of recreational smoking to “get high”. Being in the high-state actually promotes wellness. Being high feels good and feeling good encourages healing and homeostasis.Most of us, however, are less familiar with the other ways in which one can use marijuana as a remedy for aliments that diminish quality of life—like aching muscles from over exertion or spinal misalignment, for example. Actually the list of aliments that can be soothed with medical marijuana is quite long. It is important to emphasize that marijuana does not “cure”; rather it soothes and alleviates and in so doing we feel better and heal faster. This comes from its palliative qualities.Marijuana’s palliative qualities can be delivered in a variety of ways: smoking, eating, rubbing into the skin. Each of these delivery methods has special benefits, which are compared and contrasted in MARIJUANA RECIPES AND REMEDIES. In addition to the delicious foods described, MARIJUANA RECIPES AND REMEDIES tells how to extract the beneficial chemicals from the herb—its essence—to make tinctures and ointments good for massaging aching muscles, soothing bug bites.MARIJUANA RECIPES AND REMEDIES offers many easy, delicious, nutritious recipes, including desserts of all kinds, breads, main courses, and elixirs. It also teaches principles—such as using butter to extract the essence—so that you can experiment with your own recipe development. What fun!Most cookbooks tell you how to cook “from scratch”, which is great if you’re a cook and you have enough time. But many us aren’t “cooks”—yet we would like to incorporate marijuana herbals in our menu. MARIJUANA RECIPES AND REMEDIES is unique in that it shows how to use inexpensive, off-the-shelf, ready-made mixes you can find at the corner store to make some fabulous cannabis cuisine. How to convert off-the-shelf lotions into something fit for Cleopatra—well, almost!
