How to Take Kratom Capsules, Powder, and Extracts?

Martin B.

When using Kratom, it is essential to avoid the trial and error method, especially in terms of dosage. The leaves of Kratom widely serve recreational purposes as well as medicinal purposes. Many use Kratom to withdraw from morphine, heroin, and other opioid drugs. Additionally, some use it for management of cough, anxiety, depression, etc. This is because it contains mitragynine which is a chemical present and responsible for relieving pain.

Kratom is illegal in many places and should not be taken by people below 18 years of age. You should not take kratom products if you are to operate heavy machinery. Also, it is essential to ensure that you consult your doctor when taking the products if you are expectant or you are a nursing mother. If under medication, consult the doctor to avoid drugs interacting negatively in your body. Below are ways of using Kratom in its capsules form, as powder as well as kratom extracts

  1. How to take Kratom capsules

These capsules contain ground kratom leaf powder in capsules for easier usage and storage. It is much easier to transport these capsules as well. This is the most convenient way of consuming Kratom as it makes usage quite easy. This is especially when you want to avoid the bitter taste. Therefore, there is no need to boil water, yogurt, juices, or hot chocolate to eliminate the unpalatable taste. Different websites offer kratom capsules of varying qualities. Therefore, to land at the best quality, ensure you buy from trusted dealers such as Big Bear Kratom. That said, below are ways of taking kratom capsules:

Start with a small dose then increase the dosage as you proceed. To ensure you don’t overdose, check the number of grams available in the capsule. Note that there are different sizes of Kratom capsules. There are Kratom capsules that also contain about 500 milligrams. Therefore, begin with a small dose until you figure out its interaction with your body. Usually, there are two types of kratom capsules, namely veggie capsules and gelatin capsules. The difference between the two models is that plant sources are used in making the veggie capsules, just as the name suggests, while for gelatin, animal sources are used.

As compared to plain kratom powder, capsules are not as fast-acting as the body generally takes longer to break down and absorb.

Kratom powder is a derivative of finely ground dried kratom leaves. Kratom powder is widely available. Below are ways of consuming kratom powder:

This is the easiest as the simplest way of consuming Kratom. After measuring your desired dose, you just pour it to your mouth. Immediately, you follow it up with a mouthful of water and swallow.

To make Kratom tea, boil the powder in water for 15-30 minutes. After cooking, allow the solution to settle then strain it. Some people prefer this method as it offers a wholesome experience. Also, there is an advantage in using this method as you can take it when cold or hot. An outstanding disadvantage of this method is that it is quite time-consuming. You can mix your Kratom dose with warm water then strain the leaf residue, thus leaving only the strained liquid. This method, although useful, may be disadvantageous in that it minimizes some aspects such as analgesic effects.

This method is mainly to mask the taste of Kratom. For satisfactory effects, take these remedies on an empty stomach. The only difference between these methods is that with protein shakes, you are consuming it with increased calories.

Note that you can also blend kratom powder with chocolate milk, cappuccino mix, and hot chocolate powder to deliver similar results.

  1. How to take Kratom extracts

This is a concentrated form of the plant made by brewing Kratom leaves (dried) for a long time to acquire a thick paste containing the prime ingredients of the Kratom plant. You can then transform this thick paste into a concentrated powder, resin, tincture or oil.  You just need to get a standard squeezer and fill the required dosage. Squeeze some droplets under your tongue, after which you only suck on it until absorption takes place into the bloodstream. An advantage of consuming the kratom extract is that owing to its concentration, even low doses will deliver your desired results. Also, due to high bioavailability, this method of consumption provides results fastest as compared to the other methods. This means that even when anxious before performing, for example, by taking the extract, your nerves will calm quite fast.

Conclusion

Taking Kratom in powder form, capsules, and as an extract are some of the forms in which you can consume Kratom. When using any of these methods, it is essential to watch out on your dose. For example, when taking blended Kratom powder in fluids, the volume is not accurate in gauging the amount consumed. Preferably, if unsure about the dosage, take the capsules form. Try out the different styles to assess which one works best for you.
