Frequently asked questions

What is Kratom?

Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is a tropical tree that’s native to Southeast Asia, where kratom leaves have been used for hundreds of years in native medicine. Belonging to the coffee family, it harbors a diverse array of alkaloids known to produce a wide spectrum of effects. There are various methods to cultivate and process kratom, each contributing to its unique qualities and effects. Our commitment to quality begins with sourcing from a family-owned farm in Pontianak, Indonesia. To guarantee safety and consistency, every batch undergoes rigorous lab testing, reflecting our dedication to providing the finest Kratom.

How Does Kratom work?
Kratom is able to have an effect on the body because of the alkaloids present in the leaves. Kratom interacts with the body’s mu-sedative receptors, primarily located in the brain. Mitragynine and 7-hydroxy mitragynine are two key alkaloids believed to be pivotal in producing the effects of Kratom that go from relaxation to stimulation. Read more
