Kratom Leaf

Kratom, also referred to as Mitragyna Speciosa, is a tropical tree that originates from Southeast Asia. Over the last decade, kratom has become very popular in the United States as more men and women learn about its abilities. Mitragyna Speciosa is indigenous to areas such as Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, and Papua New Guinea. While kratom is illegal in some areas, in most U.S. states, kratom is legal.

While kratom is relatively young to the U.S., it’s not at all “young,” kratom has been used in traditional medicines for several centuries. The history of kratom is quite interesting. Thanks to the ancient Southeast tribes and farmers, we know a fair amount about kratom and its many uses over that time. A lot of people feel kratom is safe, the FDA and others tend to disagree.

While the kratom plant is actually a kratom tree, the real power of its abilities is the kratom leaf. It’s the kratom leaf that holds the effects that kratom users seek. While there’s many ways to take kratom, ancient tribes and farmers use to chew on the kratom leaves. They did this because the kratom leaf may help with energy, focus, pain, and even sexual desire. They also learned how to make kratom extract out of the leaves, using it for many things, one example being created into a local anesthetic.

Its uses didn’t stop there, kratom has also been used to treat coughs, diarrhea and intestinal issues. We even know kratom as part of rituals and worship.
