- Chaya is called the Maya Miracle Plant. It is a very powerful green food source packed with nutrients! Sometimes referred to as Tree Spinach, it is actually more nutritious than the spinach that makes Popeye super strong... you know, as strong as cartoon characters can be.
We like to grow and harvest the Chaya leaves to process into powder to add to our food for those extra vitamins and minerals. There are many reported benefits of this super food, but the one that keeps us using it is that it is shown to improve kidney function. Our special needs son has some issues with his kidneys. We believe that using this powder has helped him in the past, so we like to keep stocked up.
Chaya is easy to grow so I wanted to make this video to show how to make Chaya Powder. The Miracle Plant may be something that can help you. Look it up. Let me know what you find out.

We started with 6 cuttings of Chaya and today we have over a 100 growing on our farm. This is really good information, we have to now figure out how to do this at scale! Bigger pots for cooking chaya in bulk and bigger dehydrator would be the way forward I am guessing. I wish there was more information about the plant. A lot of information would be in Spanish but I don't fully understand the language to be able to access and understand all of it!I guess we will have to go by our own experience of trial and error to find and fine tune our process! Thank you so much for sharing this simple experience with the world!
Love all the great information you provide!!! You are living the dream, blessings.
After I boil my Chaya I put it through the salad spinner to remove excess water. Then I stack the leaves and make bunches which I flash freeze prior to storing in the freezer. When I make soups or if I want to use in a stew or recipe I take what I need out of the freezer. Chaya holds up to cooking so it can be made much like collard greens.
I loved the small smiles that Luke gave to us on the video. Thank you Luke!
worth a million bucks!
I grow chaya here in Belize. I use it like spinach in just about everything..I love to mix greens with cooked potatoes, in quiche, pizza or sauteed with olive oil & garlic. We have a constant year round supply. I mix it with collards, bok choi, etc. for variety. Great plant!
I planted chaya and cook it just like I cook spinach. Thank you for sharing
Thank you!!!
I planted Chaya and will fallow your instructions to dry it.
Chaya and moringa here in south Fl summers are amazing pest free greens that grows effortlessly when most standard greens wither or bolt. Love it! Sadly though, the go virtually dormant in the long winter dry season.
Thank you so much Daddykirbs Farm
sending support from Indonesia
Thank you!
I read and heard that you can drink/use that water that you drained off as it's full of calcium and still safe from toxins. I planted a 100ft living hedge from branches from my only tree after Hurricane Irma snapped it at the base. A new tree ended up growing from the base again too. Hoping to be able to make lots of powder in the future 😂. Great vid tho.
I have heard this as well and wonder if the fear and science is like drinking distilled water. False science and safe to drink.
Good to see Luke. Will be try the chaya.
It's worth trying out. Thanks!
Always good to see Luke helping out! Nice job!
I agree. I love it when Luke helps with the projects.
I am in south Florida growing chaya and am going to make this powder. I normally have it in soups but I also make medicinal formulas and would like to use this as well. Thank you and Luke for this great information! I am prone to kidney stones also 😒
Wonderful Video, will have some Chaya to harvest soon, this seems like a great way to use it. Thank you!
Love the ending ! It put a smile on my face
I've never heard of chaya. Will have to look into that and see if it grows here.
If you can get it to grow in your area I think you'll be happy with having it available as a food and medicine plant :)
I bought one off amazon thinking that where I live is subtropical environment but apparently southeast Georgia is not quite warm enough. However my Chaya tree did great living in my kitchen it’s taller than me now. I’m thinking about taking a couple of cuttings after watching this guy on one of his other videos show me how easy it is to turn one plant into many and my plant has gotten very top-heavy now like his did on that video. But you should be able to grow Chaya indoors with no problem it’s a very hearty plant. There have been several times I thought mine was going to die but each time it came back. They are very forgiving too.... they don’t like a lot of water. Which is perfect for a musician who lives alone like me. I tend to water it just whenever I happen to think about it which isn’t very often. I have occasionally given it some miracle grow but that’s it.
Thank you for sharing your Chaya recipe’s for your son. I have tons of Chayas in my garden. I knew it’s a miracle plant that you can use for so many health issues. I cook it sometimes or just boiled it and drink the water as a Chaya tea
You are very welcome. My Chaya isn't doing well after our hard freeze this year and last. I have one plant that might pull through.
@@daddykirbs have you seen the studies on Bryophyllum Pinnatum and kidney's
@@jeremyrobbins9064 I haven't. I'll put this on my list of things to research. Thanks.
Can I dehydrate the leaves in the hot sun since I have no dehydrator or oven like you. Great video!
That's awesome. I'll need to try some. Thx. And love the team spirit at end, hahaha
My son is a crazy kid. He loves to get me to laugh during video shoots.
I have Chaya also made in Philippines
Love this info! Your son is so sweet!
Great video, you forgot to tell us how to use the chaya. Do you use it in a shake? Perhaps as an addition to a casserole? My chaya is definitely ready to harvest again I think I'll dehydrate some to keep in the pantry.
Ah! I missed a great point! Sheesh. I should have run this by the Fanily first! LOL We use the powder mostly in Salmon patties for Luke. This is one food that he consistently eats.
If you would like more flavor in chaya power (or eggs, potatoes, etc) try steaming them instead of boiling them to cook them. This retains a lot more flavor of the food. I have now heard conflicting things about boiling extracting some nutrients from whatever is being cooked that way. My thought is if the flavor is greater by steaming then boiling then something must be being removed from the food when boiled.
Great video, I have some cuttings in my yard. Im gonna start making chaya powder. Blessings for you and your family.
This is great- What an honor. ^.^ Happy I stumbled across this. I have never seen my name so many times!
All done in your honor! So... just curious, Do you pronounce your name "CHaya" or "Kaya"?
@@daddykirbs "shhheya." I get all sorts of variations though! I read that it is Hebrew for life/living which in other languages and cultures translates to vegetables or plants. I can't wait til I can say I ate Chaya thank you for the information!
I heard it was good for a lot of things. I will have to try to grow some. Great video. Thank you sir
Thank you
Aww LUKE. I've had a few stones too. I know how you feel buddy. The bigger they are the more they hurt. Lots of fluids to keep them flushed out and cranberry juice seems to help me.
I'm sorry to hear that you've struggled with stones too. I hear it can be very painful. So far Luke hasn't expressed any great pain so maybe if we keep up with the fluids and Chaya he'll be fortunate enough to miss that part of the process :)
Thanks for the info. Much love to you and Luke.
Thank you very much. I'm happy to report that Luke is doing very well right now.
@@daddykirbs All the thanks go to you and Luke and what you give to us with your channel.
Thank you for sharing your video have a nice day everyone.
Noooooooo!!!! Don’t cook them!!! You’ve been misinformed!! The people of Yucatán, where that plant comes from, consume it raw. I am from there my entire family is from the Yucatán peninsula. If you go to any restaurant and ask for a chaya a drink, which is a staple of any restaurant in the Yucatán peninsula, those drinks are done with raw Chaya. My entire life I have consumed it raw. when I blend it I add lemon and a little bit a honey to make a refreshing drink. Please don’t cook it. I have seen so many videos saying that it is poisonous but it is not. They just don’t want people cured the natural way and by cooking it you are killing everything that will cure you of diseases and prevent cancer. I can send you videos on CZcams of restaurant owners and even doctors in Yucatan showing you how to make the drink and it is raw. My mom cured her diabetes by blending 5 Chaya leaves every morning [raw] and drinking it. And the correct pronunciation is ch like in choo-choo 🙂 thanks for your video!!
Thank you for sharing this great info. I would love to have the links for those videos. Can you please post them in the reply? Thank you.
Thanks Teresita Algun sitio que me recomiendas para cómprarla , yo soy diabético , y quiere tomar las cosas en mano y seriamente , me podías ayudar en la información, gracias por compartir la información seria de mucha ayuda para muchas personas que la necesitan , salud y muchas bendiciones para usted y toda su familia en especial a su mami .
A Lil tid bit I had difficulty in researching if you have chickens they can eat the raw leaves un processed
Very interesting
Thank you again!
Is the water the Chaya was cooked in drinkable?
Thank you very helpful
What do you do with the strained water? Can you drink it?
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Lol. Love the out take. You raised him. Hahaha. Then again, I don't take full responsibility for all of my children's behavior.
I raised him, but most of this behavior has to come from Mamakirbs ;)
Uh huh. Yeah, I can totally see that.
It’s worth looking into
How to prepare chaya (menu)?
I got 4 or 5 cuttings started in containers. I'll plant them when they are ready. I have heard they help remove cysts. I hope they do. I'm in zone 10 some are doing great some have shriveled leaves with white stuff on the inside of the leaf wrinkles? The little black ants are all over some but they are on okra and peppers, pretty much everything else I have.
Did you use the water from boiling for anything?
Drink it or use to cook other things or make lemonade. It's yummy. I made hibiscus tea with that water. Yummy.
A un compañero lo curo del ácido úrico 3 te al día en puerto rico curo muchas enfermedades pero la sataizaron por lo que contiene creo que hidróxido de cianuro
I didn't know about chaya.Wonder where i could get starts? I tried growing some moringa but the seeds didn't germinate
If you live in a warm area perhaps some nearby gardeners might have some. I have also seen them for sale online.

Hello there!
I grow both Moringa and Chaya so if you want cuttings or seeds let me know. Both are unstoppable... I am in the Miami area.
If you can't germinate the moringa seeds, you can cut some branches and plant it. Be sure to plant it during summer time. It grows faster.
How to consume this powder
Good day! I was surprise to see your video regarding chaya plant. I have kidney stone and was happy toknow i can make tea from it. We are in the philippines and i grow chaya plant to use its leaves to arrange flower. Now im glad i can use it for much useful way. I have one question, can i dry the leaves under the heat of the sun or hang dry inside the house instead of using oven?. Thank you.
I pray your kidney stone clears up with no complications.
I don.t understand why did he just did that anyway great video I well definitely try growing Chaya some time
Hi I am new to your channel but I am enjoying and learning about plants that you are using for your son, like moringa seeds and Chaya, I also have severe kidney problems for years. Thanks for this video.
Whether it can be dried using a solar drier or is oven necessary?
I hope it helps Luke!
I blend chaya straight without cookin add little sugar or honey drnk it as juice and nothing has happened to me. I normally have knee pain fue the fibroid i had and i have been on medication but after consuming chaya juice raw like that no pain
Good
I want to look the same on the internet but the looks different here (in Germany) and is also named as wild buckwheat
or tree spinach . is it the same only maybe a different kind? I understand unfortunately no English- am old woman ^^ - lemon juice I always do :-). thank you and many greetings from berlin
Are the nutrients will gone with cooking?
2/2 a los 26grados c se descompone la lechuga de los mayas en Yucatán la comen cruda y no pasa nada
Where do we buy chaya seeds, could you give us some names of seed companies who might sell them?
It's only propagated by cuttings not seeds
can someone send me the chayamansa three lobed variety in Greece in an envelope please?
4:41 what happened to your cooking sheet lol
rough kitchen ;) We figure it still works for things that don't need the sides LOL
Wouldn’t the dehydrating process remove the toxins to save a step so you don’t have to boil it first? Or is the higher temp required?
Thank you
Thank you for sharing this time with me.
