Native Use
In Indonesia, locals consume the kratom as a whole, fresh leaves. They pick the large leaves from the tree and chew on it for a period of time in order to get energized focus, improved mood, and more self-confidence. Leaves are fermented to change the chemical composition, color, and character of the plant.
Traditionally, it is known that kratom can have analgesic effects when ingesting a larger amount of leaf. It is said that it can help people who have a hard time getting into a relaxed state before bed.
Natural Habitat
Mitragyna speciosa originally grows in the rainforest of Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. The species thrives in high temperatures and humidity. This tropical tree or shrub often grows to a height of only 3 to 4 meters, although it will sometimes grow as tall as 12 to 16 meters. The soil must be moist and humus-rich for it to grow well. Kratom cultivation is possible as long as the conditions are right. It is therefore difficult to grow kratom in temperate or drier climates.
Scientific information
The major active compounds present in Kratom are mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-HMG). Much research is being done into the energizing and pain-relieving effects of this plant. It is often said that in high doses subjects of research report opioid-like activity. Also, the potential for physical and mental dependency is currently being studied.
