Interesting Facts About Liquid Kratom

jeudi 3 octobre 2013

By Dale Peck


Southeast Asian countries are the home of the plant species called as Mitragyna speciosa. It is a tree that is known by many as kratom, kratum or krathom. The plant belongs to the Rubiaceae family where coffee also belongs to. Derivatives of this flora, like the liquid kratom, have aroused the curiosity of herbal believers and of concerned individuals. There have been claims that it has a very high medicinal value.

Kratum trees do not effectively survive in conditions unlike its typical habitat. They grow naturally in tropical settings that is why raising them in places with cold climates is not advised. Their height spans up to fifty feet and their width reaches up to fifteen feet. Though their body are said to be strong, people rely more on the derivatives of their leaves.

Fresh leaves are typically chewed by the locals who cultivate these plants. Since they are relatives of coffee, people take them because of their soothing and calming effects. Worn out men because of tedious work take kratoms more often than women.

Tea is also usually made from the dried leaves of Mitragyna speciosa. Though less potent, this form is preferred over chewing leaves because its taste is less awful for others. The leaves are boiled in bundles. Evaporation of liquid allows extracts to be left behind for various uses. Technology has also given birth to its capsule form.

Physically, it can cause constipation, constriction of pupils, elevation of blood pressure, increased heart rate and analgesia. Its analgesic effect is one of the main reasons of its popular usage. When taken in liquid form like tea, desired responses can then be observed within twenty minutes. There are claims that this plant species can support weight loss.

Mentally, krathom can produce the feeling of extreme happiness or euphoria. Effects to every person may vary but generally, feelings of warmth, stimulation, and sedation are observed. Overall effect may last a minimum of two hours and a maximum of five. This flora is very unique because it can cause stimulating and sedating outcomes.

However, abuse of kratum use may be detrimental on the psychological health of the users. Prolonged use can cause hallucinations, delusions ans schizophrenic behaviors. It is important to establish limitations in its intake to prevent negative reactions from occurring. Engaging in activities that need increased energy and alertness like driving should be avoided while under the influence of the drug.

Opium is a very strong analgesic. It is two times stronger than morphine. Heroin is made out of this plant. Kratum comes in handy for managing opioid dependency. Opium users can rely on kratoms during opioid withdrawal. It mimics the effect of heroin but produces a lesser harmful effect. However, certain Asian governments have banned the use of kratoms for this purpose because it has been abused by most users. Addiction to krathom has been observed through time.

Prolonged use of this plant can lead to obstructive diseases of the intestines. A more thorough research should be taken to validate positive claims and support details on the limitations of liquid kratom and other forms of the herb. The ban posted by governing bodies have made this step harder for drug manufacturers.
