Kratom, a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia, is drawing growing interest among people seeking mood support and relief from everyday aches. Its leaves contain alkaloids such as mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine, which interact with opioid receptors to deliver stimulating effects at lower doses and more relaxing, soothing effects at higher ones.
Specialists suggest that dosage and frequency should be tailored carefully, taking into account body weight, metabolism, strain potency and individual tolerance. Lower amounts are typically associated with energy and focus, while moderate to higher servings are more often used for calm and comfort. Kratom can be taken as powder, capsules, teas, gummies or concentrated extracts, each with different onset times that usually range from 20 to 45 minutes.
