KRATOM EXPLAINED
If you are new to kratom, this is the best place to learn and get the newest information. There is a lot of information out there and the majority of it is confusing. For one, you have all these options in front of you and it is hard to choose a strain if you have no idea what to expect or what each strain helps you with. The color indicated in the name is given from the color of
the vein of the leaf before being de-veined and powdered, either green, red, white, or yellow. Kratom, also known as Mitragyna Speciosa is a relative to the coffee plant. It is a leafy tree that can grow up to 15 meters in height and is found in the rainforests of Southeast Asia, where it has long been used in traditional herbal medicine to treat pain, boost energy, alleviate anxiety and depression symptoms, and promote feelings of wellness and happiness. Kratom is not a “legal high”, and if you are hoping to get high from kratom, you will end up being disappointed. It is a gentle herb which can provide a mood lift and stimulation and sedation. Stimulating kratom is not unlike caffeine, but it is much different feeling and smoother than caffeine. The duration usually lasts between 2-5 hours. Smaller doses (between 2 and 7 grams usually) provide energy and stimulation and focus. The more kratom you take, the more sedating it becomes. Kratom is high in antioxidants and a healthy alternative to caffeine.
