Kratom Basics

Hello Guys,



Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is a tropical tree native to the jungles of Southeast Asia. It has been used by people in Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia for centuries mostly to increase endurance for manual labor. Unlike many herbal remedies, the active constituents of Kratom, mitragynine and 7-OH-mitragynine have been identified and characterized. Both compounds are chemically related to yohimbine, but bind to mu, delta and kappa opiate receptors in the body and brain. In low doses, Kratom appears to be stimulant-like, providing extra energy and endurance. It is in higher doses that Kratom's opiate-like effects become clear and users experience sedation, nausea and euphoria. Due to binding affinities for opiate receptors throughout the body, including the brain, Kratom's effects are similar to many opiate analgesics including codeine and morphine.



Thanks and Regards,

Daquan Gibson
