A drug, illegal in many countries, that is made from the dried leaves and

relaxed if smoked or eaten.
COCA
Coca, which is mainly grown in Colombia, Peru, and Bolivia, is a highly
addictive drug that is processed in jungle laboratories where the coca is
extracted from the leaves to produce cocaine. Until the early 1900s,
cocaine was commonly used in Western medicine as an anesthetic
because of its numbing ability. However, in the 1970s cocaine reemerged
as an expensive, high status drug of abuse. Cocaine increased throughout
the U.S. when the forms of cocaine began to vary and it became more
widely available and cheaper.
