How Much Is Too Much Kratom?

How Much Is Too Much Kratom?

Alexander and Victor discuss ETHA kratom dosing and how they each figured out their unique dose through a process called Self-Titration. Self-Titration is the gradual adjustment in the amount ingested, while noting interim results, to reach the desired effect. Victor shares how newbie in-store ETHA customers are usually taking way more kratom powder than they typically need. In other words not their true dose, but in excess. Victor explains to these new customers how through self-titration he has arrived at his current personal kratom dose. As such, they are typically shocked to discover how much less kratom they actually need to ingest and still get the desired effect. Additionally, Alexander explains how he uses ETHA’s Concentrated Full Spectrum Kratom Tablets for extra extended release from his aches and pains. Finally, Alexander and Victor reminisce they did an experiment on who could take the most kratom. Don't worry! No ETHA founders were harmed in this experiment! And they did not feel any serious side effects.

Victor describes in detail Alexander's tea experiment testing to see if high heat temperatures affect the alkaloid profile of kratom tea. They also discuss how steeping any citric acid (such as lemon juice) with our tea bags will help enhance the potency of the alkaloid profile of the kratom beverage. Amanda reads a customer testimonial from our Tea Bag page, and finally, the two tease about a new LIMITED-RELEASE product launching very soon.

Kratom Advocacy: Your Voice Counts

Kratom Advocacy: Your Voice Counts

Victor and Alexander discuss how the stigma behind kratom has seen a much needed recent decrease. This decrease is in part due to dedicated research and scientific exploration surrounding kratom. As such, this now helps shed positive light on all the amazing benefits kratom offers. Unfortunately, a lot of this positive information and research about kratom was kept from the public for years. In part due to ignorance and in part due to regulatory abuse, the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) successfully perpetuated a gross misinformation campaign about kratom for decades. The FDA's shielding positive information from the public and pushing false information perpetuated a very negative narrative about kratom. The American Kratom Association (AKA) and fellow kratom supporters, like ETHA fight vehemently daily to dispel this misinformation. Thanks to the state level Kratom Consumer Protection Act (KCPA) and the newly filed Federal Protect Consumer Access to Kratom Act (FPCAK), we are making very promising strides forward for kratom and the public's access to this miracle plant.

The FPCAK was filed in both the House and Senate as of December 2022. This is a pinnacle moment for kratom and kratom consumers, and a huge step towards the protection of access to kratom for millions of Americans. As a consumer and supporter of kratom, please take a moment and reach out to your local representatives to sponsor and support the FPCAK - https://www.americankratom.org/american-kratom-protectors.

Kratom and Pain: Where Does It Hurt?

Kratom and Pain: Where Does It Hurt?

How do we locate pain? How do we measure pain? ETHA Co-Founders, Alexander and Victor, discuss research by Dr. Christopher McCurdy on the Sigma One Receptor.  Dr. McCurdy is doing a clinical trial that combines an MRI along with a PET scan with a fluorinated compound that Dr. McCurdy developed. What they found is that the Sigma One Receptor gets highly activated when nerve endings are firing with pain signals. Now they can review a MRI and PET scan with the fluorinated compound to locate pain and its intensity. Additionally, Victor reveals how he has avoided surgery and instead manages his chronic pain naturally.

Best Kratom For Pain

It is very important to understand that kratom alone does not and will not cure, fix or permanently make pain go away. A regimen that may include exercise, clean diet, plenty of rest, a good social network of loved ones, and supplements is a holistic well-rounded approach to pain management. Kratom is a great addition to a comprehensive plan. It may temporarily alleviate pain, restore best kratom for energy levels and motivation, and support rest, allowing you to get the other parts of a holistic health plan in motion.

Alexander and Felix discuss ETHA kratom tablets. ETHA kratom pressed tablets are ETHA's top-selling, proprietary, 100% pure kratom with no fillers, binders or additives. Alexander reflects back on his introduction and first experiences with kratom in powder form. Alexander tried popular  kratom capsules next, but still did not feel fully satisfied. After much research and much trial and error, Alexander figured out how to compress 100% whole leaf kratom into a pressed tablet. The unparalleled ETHA kratom pressed tablets were born. Kratom tablets are extended release which means they last longer than all other form factors. Now ETHA customers have a superior, more convenient and less messy way to consume kratom.

Alkaloids and “Clean Energy”

There are over 40 naturally-occurring alkaloids in kratom. Some of these alkaloids like mitragynine, mitraphylline, and ryhnchophylline, are researched for their ability to be vasodilators. Vasodilation is the widening of blood vessels to allow better blood and oxygen flow. And in fact, this is what gives people the ‘clean energy’ boost. Better flow can translate to better energy so you can start the day off right and keep it going. If you want to naturally alleviate fatigue and naturally support elevated energy levels†, give our MaengDa Premium Kratom a try, since our ETHA Labs use only those harvests with the higher naturally occurring concentrations of vasodilator alkaloids to make this blend.

Is Kratom Legal?

Kratom is federally legal. Alexander and Felix deep dive into the legality of kratom. Alexander discusses the 2016 Food & Drug Administration (FDA) misinformation campaign pertaining to kratom. The FDA confused a product adulterated with Odesmol Tramadol that was responsible for killing six people in Finland. The FDA incorrectly named kratom as the cause for the deaths. Kratom, however, by itself has not been confirmed or associated with mortality or other serious adverse side effects to date. Tune in and learn more about the legalities for kratom.

Related Blog - Federal Kratom Consumer Protection Bill 10.2022

Most products for consumer use must pass regulations before being allowed for distribution and sale. Our food has them, as do our drinks. Even pet food has regulations. The regulations are there for consumer protection.

The KCPA is a bill that aims to show that kratom is safe for consumption when grown, distributed, sold, and consumed correctly. Without these legal processes and legislation, the market would be flooded with dangerous products that put the public at risk. Kratom users all over the United States must feel safe and be safe when using this powerful and amazing healing superfood. This is why the KCPA is so important. Without the KCPA we could see a huge influx of unregulated, potentially dangerous contaminated kratom in the market. This means our kratom could contain anything!

When we discuss kratom the most important thing is that all kratom users are SAFE. Kratom has been a medicine and superfood for hundreds of years and therefore needs to be kept that way. Safe, clean, uncontaminated and effective. If kratom is mixed with other potentially dangerous substances everyone suffers. This is why the KCPA is so important.

This monumental effort will require kratom supporters and business owners to unite and provide any and all available resources. Please sign up to stay informed.

Thank you to the AKA, Senator Curt Bramble, and House Representative Vernon Jones for helping us to organize and for your support and insights as we embark on this exciting journey.

For over 20 years, much of his research has focused on opioid, Neuropeptide FF and sigma receptor ligand/probe design, synthesis, pharmacological evaluation and development. Dr. McCurdy has been successful in discovering unique and selective tools for sigma receptors, NPFF receptors and opioid receptors. He is an internationally recognized expert on Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa), that is under investigation for opioid withdrawal syndrome. A significant portion of his career has been dedicated to the development of novel sigma receptor ligands, in collaboration with a variety of interdisciplinary groups, to generate and optimize selective ligands which could serve as critical experimental tools, and more recently, as potential medication development leads to attenuate the effects of cocaine, methamphetamine and pain.

A study involving kratom and more specifically, Mitragynine, was published online by Jack E. Henningfield of Pinney Associates and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine on October 29th, 2022. It is significant in that it outlines scientific findings on the very low respiratory effects (effects on breathing) of mitragynine when in its natural, non-adulterated state. The study was designed to evaluate the respiratory effects of kratom’s primary alkaloid, mitragynine, in comparison to oxycodone, a prototypic opioid that reliably produces dose-related respiratory depression and death in humans, rats, and other species.

SUPER FOODS TO IMPROVE WELL BEING

Superfoods contain a variety of nutrients, such as antioxidants, which have been lauded for all kinds of health benefits. Additionally, they may contain healthy fats, which are thought to help with heart disease, and fiber, thought to assist with diabetes and digestive problems. They may also contain phytochemicals, the chemicals in plants responsible for deep colors and smells, which can have numerous health benefits. When you consume superfoods packed with nutrients, you help your body ward off disease, support its internal health, and most of all, improve your wellbeing.

KRATOM IS A SUPER FOOD

Kratom is a superfood that supercharges well-being and wellness. At ETHA Natural Botanicals we sustainably harvest kratom, an alkaloid rich plant. For centuries kratom has been used to help with pain and energy by those doing strenuous labor.  Traditionally, kratom was an anesthetic that helped with coughs, and with intestinal issues like diarrhea. Another popular way to enjoy kratom would be to brew some leaves in hot water to make a kratom tea. Today, you can enjoy kratom in our convenient kratom herbal tea bags.

In summary, kratom is not a drug and not a synthetic. Rather, kratom is a superfood that goes beyond nutrition to promote and improve overall well-being.

This is how ETHA provides the best kratom online. ETHA kratom is consistent, clean and safe. Alexander also reviews how testing for kratom alkaloids alone is not enough. It is also important to test for heavy metals like lead and nickel.

Whereas a lot of companies provide kratom in vein colors or by region, ETHA does things differently. The reason most vendors call kratom certain names is purely marketing. Here at ETHA, we use the specific alkaloid combination to create our proprietary kratom blends targeted to support specific human issues/ailments. We harvest from several different forests and grow our own kratom in our greenhouse. We lab measure alkaloids and use the data to determine which harvest goes into which blend. That way each of our kratom products is always consistent.
