Calea ternifolia

Calea ternifolia is a plant that grows in some countries in Central and South America. People who live in those countries sometimes use parts of the plant to make tea or other herbal products.

But calea ternifolia isn't just any old plant. It has certain chemicals in it that some people think might make them have dreams that are more vivid or interesting. Some people also think the plant might help them remember their dreams better.

Because of this, some people use calea ternifolia as part of their bedtime routine. They might have a cup of tea made with the plant, or take a pill that contains parts of the plant.

But just because some people think calea ternifolia is helpful, that doesn't mean it's definitely safe or right for everyone. People who are pregnant, have liver problems, or take certain medicines should talk to their doctor before using any herbal supplement, including calea ternifolia.
