Kratopia Green Borneo Kratom This green kratom from the Indonesian part of Borneo is a mild variant. It is calming and stress-reducing. Several users report that it puts them in a good mood. Ideal for people with a morning mood. In small doses it has a stimulating effect like coffee.
Use: Prepare a cup of tea from this herbal preparation by dissolving 4 to 5 grams in boiled water 70 - 95 degrees. Recommended steeping time is between 3 to 5 minutes. The tea does not need to be filtered, everything can be consumed.
Warning: Sale and use under the age of 18 is not permitted. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if you have high or low blood pressure, heart and/or lung complaints, diabetes, pregnancy, use of medications, drugs or alcohol. Recommended dosage: 4 to 5 grams
Dosage: In addition to your own body weight and sensitivity, the dosage also depends very much on the strength of the kratom. Normally 5-10 grams of dried leaves should be sufficient for inexperienced users. The dosage can be slightly lower with kratom powder, which is usually stronger than regular leaves (3-5 grams). The same applies to extract. Kratom is not addictive when used responsibly and no more than once or twice a month. More experienced users will feel the need to increase the dosage after some time.
Kratom in higher doses tends to have a strong calming effect, regardless of which strain is used. Mild Effect: < 3 grams Fair/Good Effect: > 3-5 Strong Effect: > 5-6 grams Description: Kratom has a strong effect on your mood and energy. It reduces anxiety, while the feeling is described as happy, strong and active, with a calm mind and a strong will to work. Thai workers use it to get through the working day. The effects are felt after 5 to 10 minutes and can last several hours.
Most people call the effects stimulating and euphoric at a low dose and sedative at a higher dose. This can probably be explained by the fact that mitragynine stimulates the delta-opiate receptors in small doses, but increasingly stimulates the mu-opiate receptors as the dose increases. These are the same receptors that are stimulated when you use opium-based drugs. Although the main alkaloids in kratom are related to psychedelic substances, kratom does not appear to have any psychedelic effects. The main effects are comparable to those of opiates: analgesic and cough suppressant, but also narcotic and euphoric. These effects are roughly comparable in strength to codeine. Some sources claim that kratom, like other opiates, stimulates sexual desire in women and can reduce erection problems in men. The positive effect of mitragynine on mood and a reduction in anxiety are probably responsible for this. Other effects of mitragynine include decreased muscle tone, local anesthesia and central nervous system depression. Direct negative effects may include dry mouth, increased urination, decreased appetite and constipation. Unlike opiates, mitragynine usually does not cause nausea or vomiting. Intensive use can result in a mild form of lethargy. Kratom is not a medicine, but has a positive influence on issues such as: - Restlessness - Improved concentration - Energy deficiency - Insomnia - Relief of pain - Reduction of cravings in addictions
