WildKratom(mitragyna
speciosa korth) is
a tree native to Southeast Asia,
including Thailand, Northern Malay
Peninsula, Borneo and New Guinea.
(katrom)
Kratom
or Kratum is in the same
family as the coffee tree (rubiaceae).
The leaves have been used as an
herbal medicine for thousands of
years in Southeast Asia.
Wild Kratom
is used in traditional medicine
as a stimulant at low doses, sedative
at high doses, for recreation, pain
killer, as well as treatment for
opiate addiction and more.
Kratom is a rather unique
herb in that a low to moderate dose will usually
be stimulating, while a high dose is
almost always sedating. Kratom
affects the mind and body much like opiates.
At the stimulant level the mind is more alert,
physical and sexual energies are increased,
and the subject becomes more sociable,
talkative, ecstatic and self-confident.
If listening to music, user becomes more "in-touch"
with it, often having an unstoppable desire
to dance. Users experience full body orgasms,
the ability to hold an erection for hours,
as well asa longer climax.
At the sedative level the subject becomes
less sensitive to physical or emotional pain,
feelscalm, general feeling
of euphoria, immensepleasure,
and possible luciddreaming. Subject
can feel in peace with the universe,
as well as blissful; closed eye visuals
can occur.
However, apart of the apparent
pleasurable effects of this natural herb, many
users are reporting various medicinal benefits
(those are individual claims unsubstantiated
by scientific evidence; FDA hasn't approved
ANY medicinal uses of Kratom.)
-
pain management - erasing depression for up
to 24 hours and feeling positive and optimistic
- gaining unusual strength and energy enabling
longer workouts - help with runny nose - help
with insomnia - longer lasting erections - feeling
of being motivated, desire to work, to be active
and accomplish as much as possible - help with
social anxiety - help with managing withdrawal
symptoms from quitting opiate addiction, help
with quitting cigarettes and alcohol - lowering
blood pressure, decreasing heart rate, easier
breathing, increasing sexual desire.
When taken as a tea, Kratom
effects can be noticed in about 20 minutes.
The effects of Kratom usually last around
six hours with another 20 of lingering effects.
Negative Wild Kratom Effects in occasional
users are rare.
The greatest risk of Kratom
is falling asleep while engaged in hazardous
activities. NEVER drive, operate heavy machinery,
or try to perform any activities which require
full concentration, while under the influence
of kratom, even if you feel stimulated,
rather than sleepy, for sleepiness may come
on you without warning. There might be other
unknown risks.
Wild Kratom is
not habit forming when it is used responsibly.
If used occasionally rather than daily, there
is virtually no risk of becoming dependent on
it. But it is important not to get into the
habit of using it every day. Kratom if
used on a daily basis for a prolonged period
of time, could become a habit hard to break.
