Mitragyna Speciosa, commonly called Kratom is an evergreen plant indigenous to Southeast Asia and renowned as natural and herbal medicine.
For many centuries, the healing powers of Kratom contained in over 40 alkaloids found in its leaves have been delivering tons of health benefits to people all over the world.
Kratom is used to treat inflammation, chronic pain, manage energy levels, boost concentration, and enhance general performance for best results.
Because most claims to the effectiveness of Kratom are based on practical trial and experiences but without scientific evidence, there have been questions especially from the field of medicine.
Health Benefits of Kratom
Many people have experienced the health benefit of this product and can testify about it anywhere.
Let us look into some health benefits of Kratom.
Heals Pain and Inflammation
Kratom offers a natural and faster way to heal chronic pains and reduce inflammation. It contains major inflammatory properties.
In 2017, a study was carried out to look into the anti-inflammatory effect of Kratom. This study found that it has immunity-enhancing properties that prevent inflammation.
While we hope for scientific evidence that could drive Kratom into the major market soon, it is quite satisfactory to find out that many people have gotten rid of year-long pain and other issues with the help of Kratom products.
Great Energy booster
Kratom has different strains like red dragon kratom. You can either get relaxing benefits or energizing benefits. The fast strain of Kratom rapidly boosts your energy levels and gets you ready to take on any task before you.
Some users have made it a morning ritual to either replace their cup of tea with Kratom or add droplets of it to their coffee.
Kratom doesn’t just magically boost your energy levels; it improves your body’s metabolism which will lead to proper blood circulation and will ultimately fill you with a rush of energy that will last long.
For those who suffer from Chronic fatigue syndrome or any similar cases, Maengda, Thaikratom, and white Kratom will produce the best results.
Anxiety Management
Many people who suffer from anxiety, especially in social gatherings and public events have testified that Kratom helps them relax and feel more affable in such settings.
This is not surprising as history holds that indigenes of Asian countries like Thailand and Malaysia used to chew Kratom leaves before attending gatherings to help them feel relaxed and socialize better.
As Anxiety disorders are fast becoming a major issue all over the world, it is believed that Kratom holds a lot of benefits in this area if it is investigated and adopted.
It could assist in managing depression
Kratom has properties that work quite similarly to opioid substances like morphine.
The mitragynine and active alkaloids found in Kratom attach themselves to the opioid receptors in the body and render relief to such receptors. The effect of this is a reduction in pain, anxiety and depressive thoughts and effects that many users of Kratom testify to have experienced.
Aside from these claims and testimonials however, there is no conclusive research material that confirms the effect of Kratom on anxiety and mood improvement.
