I've been using it for a few years now.

Is that synthetic weed?

no. It's a more natural version opioid, commonly used to bring people off of opioid or speed addictions.

WHAT IS KRATOM?
Kratom is a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia. Consumption
of its leaves produces both stimulant effects (in low doses) and
sedative effects (in high doses), and can lead to psychotic symptoms,
and psychological and physiological dependence. Kratom leaves
contain two major psychoactive ingredients (mitragynine and
7-hydroxymytragynine). These leaves are crushed and then smoked,
brewed with tea, or placed into gel capsules. Kratom has a long history
of use in Southeast Asia, where it is commonly known as thang,
kakuam, thom, ketum, and biak. In the U.S., the abuse of kratom has
increased markedly in recent years.

I remember first hearing about this years ago on Church of Lazlo. Kinda surprising it isn't illegal. I have no idea, but have to wonder if politically all of the pressure is on legalization, rather than finding new things that should probably be illegal given the context of the other things that are illegal.

And I'm not saying I believe it should be illegal, either. Haven't heard of Kratom being a big problem anywhere, and it looks like it's sold all over now. Just seems inconsistent.

I have never used drugs recreationally.

Here in central Iowa, it is "marketed" as a way to kick opioids. I have no idea what it is or what it does, I've never tried it. Sounds like smoking oregano to me.

It really works. I used to make a tea out of it but now I just spoon some in my muth and drink lots of water.

Damn dude you are hardcore.


Here is some nerd shit tips....


Brush your teeth.

Poor like a shot of hot water in a cup, stir in your kratom. (Hot water will break it down way faster)

Add a splash of orange juice.


It will taste like a cinnamon roll rather than pure asshole.

Oh yeah it works like a champ. It's about equal to a mild Percocet buzz.

It does. I don't really even get that anymore.
