Our Dried Soursop Leaves are wild-harvested from the lush hillsides of Jamaica, where the soursop tree—also known as graviola or guanabana—grows naturally in nutrient-rich tropical soil. Each leaf is hand-picked and sun-dried to preserve its natural healing compounds, as used for generations in traditional Caribbean and African herbal medicine.
These whole leaves are rich in acetogenins, alkaloids, and antioxidants, and have been studied for their anti-inflammatory, immune-supportive, and even anticancer properties. We provide them whole and uncut—no powder, no filler—just pure, clean plant medicine.
