Certain Individuals Benefit From Liquid Kratom

By Carmella Watts


Kratom is a medicinal herb that is native to Southeast Asia. It has been used for generations as an herbal therapy for a variety of conditions. It is used to treat opiate addiction, depression, chronic pain, anxiety, and digestive disorders. Although it has not been studied extensively in the United States, it is a legal substance that can be purchased online or in certain health food stores. Many proponents of this herb state that liquid kratom is the best form, as it is absorbed better than capsules or powders.

Kratom has unique characteristics. This is because it has the ability to be both stimulating as well as sedating. When higher doses are used, it has a pain relieving and sedative effect. When taken in smaller doses, it increases alertness and energy, and offers a feeling of happiness that makes some individuals more talkative and social. In exceptionally high doses, it can be hallucinogenic or put a person into a trance-like state.

The herb is often used to aid those who are in withdrawal from opiates. In addition, it is thought to cure diarrhea and relieve chronic pain. Some individuals report weight loss when using this herb, but others claim it increases the appetite. The way it affects one with regard to appetite may vary from person to person.

As mentioned above, the herb can be taken in several ways. It can be prepared as tea or taken in capsule form. Certain consumers even use powder forms of the plant which can be placed in soft foods, such as puddings or soups.

The liquid form of this supplement is highly popular among numerous consumers. This is likely due to the fact that tea is often too weak to have the desired effect, unless high amounts are consumed, and capsules sometimes fail to open appropriately. However, these are not issues with liquid supplements. With the latter, one can expect to receive the full benefits of the plant.

Kratom, whether capsules or liquid, can be ordered online or in some herb and vitamin stores. If one chooses to order the product online, it is important for him or her to thoroughly research any vendor prior to making a transaction. This is because similar to traditional businesses, certain online vendors indulge in shady practices.

When trying the herb for the first time, it is always wise to consume the lowest dose possible. Each person's system is different, and an amount that is appropriate for one person may be inappropriate for another. For this reason, consumers have nothing to lose by beginning with the lowest dose and gradually increasing it as deemed necessary.

Similar to any herb or synthetic medication, only sensible doses of kratom should be used. The substance can cause vomiting, nausea, and headaches when used to excess. Driving or engaging in activities that require cognitive function should be avoided until the person realizes how he or she reacts to the supplement. In addition, mixing the herb with medications or stimulants is never a wise course of action. Pregnant women should avoid kratom. Finally, it is always in one's best interest to speak to a physician or licensed health care practitioner prior to using liquid kratom.
