Green Maeng Da

 

Maeng Da strains are arguably the most popular types of kratom on the market. While all other kratom strains are named after the place in which they are grown, Maeng Da is different. It is perhaps the oldest and the most unique strain of all. The name Maeng Da doesn’t suggest the origin of the strain, but rather the potency & quality of it. In Thailand, ‘maeng da’ is slang for ‘pimp’ – which essentially means that Maeng Da strains are considered the best, most impressive of all; the ones with the highest quality. To learn more about Maeng Da and what makes these strains so distinctive, check out our blog on the subject here.

 

Green Maeng Da produces a stimulating and invigorating effect when ingested. Here, the translation of ‘maeng da’ comes in handy – this green strain really is the top tier of all green strains and is considered to be fantastic for boosting energy levels. In short, here’s a list of the effects of Green Maeng Da:

 

  • Promotes focus and sharpness, making it a great option for work-filled days
  • Helps relieve discomfort and offers support for the body
  • Increases motivation and positive energy

 

Maeng Da is also good for those who might be taking kratom for the first time because it’s mild and not too potent, as long as they don’t take extremely high doses of it.

Green Malaysian

 

Green Malaysian, also known as Green Malay, is a highly potent strain with intense effects on the body. It originates from Malaysia and is popular for its discomfort-relieving, energy-boosting properties, much like Green Maeng Da. The main thing with Green Malaysian is that it’s not suitable for beginners because it might be too strong for them – so it’s best to stick with weaker, less potent options if you’re just now beginning your journey with kratom.

Green Malaysian offers the following effects:

 

  • Improved mood and increased alertness
  • Increased sociability and talkativeness 
  • Sharper focus
  • Promotes euphoria and general positivity

 

Due to its higher alkaloid content (which makes it highly potent), Green Malaysian is fantastic for relieving discomfort and is perhaps even a better option than Green Maeng Da if you’re looking for quick relief for some tense areas. As we’ve said, this strain is strong for beginners and it might be a good idea to start with small doses and then work your way up. Listen to your body and its reactions!

Similarities & Differences

 

As we’ve already established, these two green strains are very similar and in fact provide effects that are very much alike. The main difference lies in the potency, with Green Malaysian being much more alkaloid-concentrated than Green Maeng Da. Although Maeng Da strains are considered to be the most high-quality strains of all, it all comes down to the vendor you choose to purchase from. Going the extra mile to check the origin, quality, and purity of the strains you want to purchase should be a top priority for you as a customer. At GRH Kratom, we source ethically and test properly, which makes all of our products completely pure and safe for use.

 

The effects of Green Maeng Da vs Green Malaysian are best felt when you give both strains a try. Some people find Green Malaysian too strong and decide to stick with Green Maeng Da, and others do the exact opposite. Whichever option you choose, make sure to consult with a doctor, as we are not medical professionals and cannot give you medical advice or personal recommendations for dosage. 

 

Side Effects

 

Some side effects may occur with both strains, but this usually happens if you take very high doses of them. The side effects are as following:

 

  • Nausea, constipation, or some other problems with digestion
  • Increased alertness that resembles that of drinking too much coffee
  • Headaches, usually associated with dehydration. The best way to relieve this is to make sure to drink more water if taking green strains of kratom

 

Most side effects are manageable if you pay attention to the dose, drink water, and eat before taking kratom. Though these side effects may appear sporadically, they are usually not severe. If, however, you notice anything out of the ordinary, the first thing you should do is contact a doctor.

 

Final Thoughts on Green Maeng Da vs Green Malay

 

While these strains sound very similar, they have a few minor differences. Both are fabulous strains, and they’re both very popular for a reason. However, depending on what effects you’re looking for, one might work better for you than the other. Which one will you try, Green Maeng Da or Green Malaysian?
