Kratom, a very well-known miraculous herb that was in use by the people of Southeast Asia since the nineteenth century, is now becoming increasingly popular around the globe for its positive effects on the body and mind.
Kratom is also known as Mitragyna Speciosa and it belongs to the same family as coffee, which is why it provides the same stimulating effects. Kratom does not contain caffeine and can be taken at any time of the day.
This herb is largely known for its sedative effects and people use it for mild pains as well as for significant bodily conditions. It contains an impressive alkaloid profile including mitragynine and 7hydroxymitragynine which aid the process of healing, curing, and removing pain.
Kratom also contains multiple biological compounds that help to improve focus, increase motivation, and remove fatigue. This is one of the reasons why initially kratom was famous amongst the working class and the labor class as it helped to take away their r exhaustiveness after a tiring day and also catered to people with long working hours, helping them maintain their focus and giving them the energy that they need to get through that time.
There are many different methods of consuming kratom but two of them are the most famous ones and they are kratom in the form of powder and tea.
Kratom powder
Ever since kratom was in use, the people of its origin used to chew the leaves after removing its strains. These leaves were directly plucked off from the plants and consumed in the most convenient method possible. They believed that it allowed them to use kratom in the most natural way without undergoing lab tests for alkaloids and other known and unknown reasons. This also fastened their metabolism and since the leaves were mixed with the saliva, the effects were further enhanced.
In today’s day and age, this method is called toss n wash. What you do is take a measured amount of kratom powder and take it in with water or any fresh juice preferably grapefruit juice as it is known to further intensify the effect.
Kratom tea
AuthenticKratom tea is the new healthy beverage and the new on-going trend nowadays as people are consuming kratom tea as a part of their daily routine. This trend is mostly seen in the United States as people over there are always on the go with a cup of coffee in their hands. It is preferred now to sip on kratom tea as it gives a similar boost of energy and stimulation that is needed.
Kratom tea is made by adding brewed leaves of any strain in hot water. There is absolutely no restriction of taking it in the hot or cold form. This tea can be used at any time of the day and is completely safe.
Having said that, there is no difference in the effects of both methods given that the strains are pure and the quality is good. Good quality strains are rare to find but once you get your hands on them, you’ll realize what great difference they make. Small amounts of their powder or leaves go a long way and maximum results are observed.
It really depends on the person’s preference, desire, and tolerance level. Ingesting kratom by toss n wash method will get the results to be fast as the powder is in the granule form and increases surface area to get absorbed quickly. Kratom tea on the other hand also gets absorbed at an equal time. There is no significant difference other than the forms of the product.
Both are entirely safe to use!
