Ou lifestyles can lead to trouble sleeping and many other problems. We often reach for options like energy drinks and painkillers to make us feel better because it's easy.
Many people try to look for slightly more organic options to avoid the consumption of unknown substances, but it sometimes ends up being a challenge to find such products. Thanks to the use of Kratom, a possible solution is now available.
What Is Kratom
Even with its growing popularity, many people haven't heard of the plant. Kratom is a tree that's native to SouthEast Asia and has many uses. The leaves of the tree have an opioid and stimulant-like effect but have also proven to have excellent medicinal properties.
Other names for Kratom include Mitragynine Extract, Mitragyna speciosa, Nauclea speciosa, and many more.
What Is it Used For
Even though it's newly available in many different countries, Kratom's use in Asia has been apparent for hundreds of years. There are several ways that this plant can be consumed. The leaves can be eaten raw or even brewed into tea.
Kratom's two primary uses are to boost energy and to calm you down and help with sleep. It may seem strange that one plant offers such opposite effects. However, the result you get from the leaves is all dosage-dependent, as you'll see.
The plant is also used as a medicine to help with high blood pressure, anxiety, coughs, depression, diabetes, diarrhea, and pain; although this lacks conclusive evidence.
As mentioned before, the effects of the leaves are dosage-dependent. When purchasing Kratom products, use the recommendation as a guide. The correct and safe amount a person can use varies in each individual. Factors like age, current state of health, and other conditions will affect how much you need.
Some guides say that for an energy-boost you should take 1-5g of Kratom, and for pain, 5-15g is suggested. These are not exact dosages, and you should always consult trusted sources for Kratom support and advice before consuming.
Where to Get Kratom
As mentioned before, South East Asia is the source of Kratom, but many people worldwide want to use the plant, so how can you obtain it? Thanks to the internet, there are plenty of online stores that sell this plant in various forms(tea, powder, capsules, etc.). When purchasing online, it's imperative to verify the legitimacy of the shop to avoid a scam.
Many health shops sell Kratom products. Enquire at your nearest store to see what they recommend. Please note that in some countries this substance is completely banned. Make sure you research well regarding where you live before trying to make a purchase.
Some people opt to grow the Kratom tree, but this option requires a lot of work and time. Before starting this kind of project, make sure that you know what you're doing. You need to ensure that the area you're using is moist enough before purchasing seeds. These trees grow in very hot and humid climates, so make the necessary preparations.
Conclusion
As a medication, Kratom has a long way to go before it's benefits are fully understood. There are many studies still underway on how it interacts with other medications and other possible uses. Even if it's current applications are proven, we always recommend that you make sure that it's the right option for you before you enjoy its benefits.
