Chewid is a neuroprotective snack based on fermented kanna herb, that helps lower stress and suppress urge. It’s clinically-proven to improve our mood, focus, endurance, happiness and overall sense of well-being. We want to revolutionize kanna cultivation and fermentation by combining sustainable aquaponics practices with cutting-edge IoT technology. It's also known as kougoed and channa, which tr
anslates to "something to chew" or "is chewable". Considered a sacred plant by the Khoisan, it was used as a socio-spiritual substance and botanical remedy that was central to their society, and was taken for centuries to improve mood, focus, and energy. Though once abundant, Kanna was nearly over-harvested to extinction in its native habitat. Unfortunately, kanna plant is not often grown in cultivation, and information about kanna plants says it is dying out in the wild. While wild-sourcing remains unsustainable today, cultivators in the South African Kanna industry grow hectares worth of the plant for domestic and international use—and per the South African government, a portion of Kanna cultivation profits go to support native communities, as well as they can be saved from extinction. Kanna plant care is exacting when plants are young, though becomes minimal as the plants mature. Kanna is an attractive option to consider as a natural legal alternative for anxiety relief, mood lift and heart-opening. Also known as Mesembryanthemum tortuosum, Kanna, channa, kuogoed, 扭曲松叶菊, 卡纳, 环菜, 龙须海棠
