Tree spinach, also known as Chaya, is a large fast growing perennial shrub, that is believed to have originated in the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula.

This plant is not very well known, but people praise it for the incredible health benefits it brings.

An older lady told us recently, that she believes that Chaya is a God’s gift to humanity, because of its ability to treat numerous conditions and cure diseases. For years, she was dealing with a cyst in her right breast and nothing she tried had a positive effect, until she tried Chaya. After 3 days of the treatment she started feeling much better, and amazingly after just 3 months her cyst disappeared completely!
