Yes, the article does CONTRADICT ITSELF. For instance, high-dosages of kratom WILL make you sleepy, alleviates pain, and calms your mind (2+teaspoons). Low-dosages bring you that stimulant effect (that you can have alongside coffee in the morning for a boost! ~2 teaspoons for beginners). Love, someone who’s been taking kratom for two years <3

I’ve never heard of anyone smoking kratom before. If it truly is possible, that would provide an alternative to the regular tea or capsule method
Hey there, this is a great website. Thanks! I think you should note that Kratom, at least when used for some time can be very addicting and has since terrible withdrawals. It is an opiate. I had it so bad I can’t bring myself to take it again. Which is too bad. I love the stuff! That said, I’d like to know which of your herbs here are physically addictive. I don’t want to go through that again.
Thanks!
hi thanks for the article… you do contradict yourself in it though. which dose does what?
High dose: high-spirited energy, contributes to a sense of well-being, making you feel pain free, active, strong, and optimistic
Low dosage: restful sleep, has antidepressant and antianxiety effects, as well as analgesic and euphoric effects
It is the opposite. I am an avid kratom fan, and there are several different strains and feelings when prepared. Red veined leaves are sedating, green are euphoric and a bit stimulating, quite balanced, and whites are the more energizing. Then, small doses are more energizing, and higher doses are more sedating, and can even trigger nausea. I love a good big dose of a red kratom at night for an overall body relaxation, euphoria, and mental release. In the daytime, a small dose of yellow or green strain is great for some anxiolytic effects without wearing you out. <3
You have it backward.
Lower doses of kratom bring a stimulating effect, sense of well being etc, and higher doses are sedative and analgesic. It also depends on the strains, for instance, red varieties tend to be the consensus for analgesic properties and sedation, while white or green varieties are used for stimulant effect. But it depends on the person, and most companies are wonderful in that they will provide you with samples so you can see which works best for you.
I have chronic pain and it’s amazing for me.
thanks for this input, I’ll look into that.
I heard you aren’t suppose to smoke kratom extract, but i have bought it from Spice Visions and smoked it and I wonder if it is okay. I don’t like hot drinks, so i don’t want to make a tea out of it.
If you’re not willing to make a tea with kratom or swallow it as a capsule form, you’ll need to smoke a rather large quantity of it in order to feel something. It might be a waste. Take care
