Best Kratom Strains for Euphoria – Which are the Most Euphoric Kratom?

One of the most common effects kratom consumers report feeling is euphoria. It’s one of the main reasons people love this natural supplement because it can help them enjoy life more as they go about their day. Green and white leaf kratom are most commonly associated with feelings of euphoria, while red leaf kratom is associated more with calm feelings of mental and physical relief.

What To Expect From Euphoria

Euphoric feelings are associated with a state of pleasure. During periods of euphoria, people report feeling happy, excited, and energetic. This feeling occurs naturally when people experience success, love, and pleasurable physical stimuli. Euphoria is one of the most commonly sought after feelings, and people often seek it recreationally. Euphorics include all types of drugs and supplements like stimulants, depressants, opioids, cannabinoids, and more. Instead of turning to especially harmful substances like opioids, people are starting to look toward kratom as a way to achieve euphoria.

Can Kratom Address Depression?

In addition to the recreational pursuit of euphoria, people often seek this feeling to combat negative emotional states like depression or other mental illnesses. Depression is increasingly common, and it can have a serious impact on how people see the world. Symptoms of depression can start to seep into every aspect of a person’s life including work and relationships. Not only is this ailment extremely unpleasant, but it can also change the way people act.

One of the most common reasons people purchase kratom is because they want to experience euphoria as a way to address negative feelings. Some kratom consumers claim that it’s had a positive impact on their mental state and restored a sense of joy to their lives. For them, this natural supplement represents a potential alternative to drugs like antidepressants and opiates.

How Does Kratom Effect Euphoria?

It’s thought that alkaloids found naturally in kratom may be responsible for feelings of euphoria and general happiness. Mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine are believed to interact with the same part of the brain that produces happy feelings during opioid consumption (however kratom is in no way related to opium). These brain receptors are responsible for communicating with a body’s sympathetic nervous system.

The sympathetic nervous system in a human body transmits signals that release endorphins throughout the body. Endorphins are hormones that can have noticeable physiological effects on the way a person feels. They can affect the experience of mental and physical distress, and people normally want to release more endorphins either to reduce pain or enhance happiness.

We’re still waiting for additional scientific research about how kratom and euphoria are related. In the meantime, we have a lot of anecdotal evidence upon which to rely. People report feeling less anxious, less stressed, and generally happier thanks to kratom. Advocates for this natural supplement claim that it has a positive impact on chemical processes in the body.

How Much Kratom For Euphoria?

Everyone’s experience of kratom will depend on both their tolerance and the strength of the product. One of the most interesting things about kratom is that people report having significantly different experiences depending on the size of their dose. Small doses have generally been consumed as a sort of stimulant, while people believe that larger doses of kratom can have a sedating effect.

Everyone’s body is different, so there is no one size fits all measurement for kratom. It’s generally said, though, that doses of kratom as low as one gram or three grams are associated with feelings of euphoria. At this stage, people say kratom makes them feel more stimulated. Interestingly enough, higher doses of kratom (over six grams or so) are generally said to make people feel more stimulated.

Consumers who choose higher doses of kratom still normally report feeling calm and happy, but they don’t have as much energy as people normally associate with euphoria. When customers want to experience the most euphoric feelings, they may enjoy a moderate dose of kratom in the three gram to six-gram range. Kratom enthusiasts normally recommend that people start with a relatively low dose until they know what their kratom tolerance is like and how this supplement will make them feel.

To experience the most powerful feelings of euphoria, people normally work their way up to an amount where they feel uplifted and energized. If they start to feel especially calm and soothing, it’s a sign that their dose is trending toward a larger amount. Feelings of relaxation are the goal for some people, but it’s generally not what people want if they’re seeking euphoria.

Best Kratom Strain For Euphoria – White And Green Leaf Kratom

It’s important to realize that most kratom “strains” are simply names used for marketing purposes. For example, Maeng Da is not a specific type of kratom plant– the phrase just means “best grade.” In other words, farmers will use the term Maeng Da to refer to the strongest leaves from their harvest. Other strain names like Bali, Malay, Hulu, Sumatra, Indo, and Borneo can be thought of as being more like brand names for kratom. They might be used similarly across vendors, but they might not necessarily have any intrinsic meaning.

That said, kratom farmers and distributors often look to these names as ways to express how they believe a certain batch of kratom will make people feel. While it’s not a scientific categorization by any means, there are certainly customers who claim to have a preferred type of kratom that gives them their favorite effects.

Green Vein Kratom Vs. White Vein Kratom

White vein and green vein kratom actually come from the same plant, but white vein kratom is harvested while it’s younger, which is why the veins haven’t changed color yet. It’s similar to how white tea leaves are just young leaves from the green tea plant. There’s not a surefire way to know exactly how a specific type of kratom will affect a given person. That said, consumers can generally come to a common consensus that green and white vein kratom are the best for causing euphoria.

Green Vein Kratom 

Most people say green kratom helps maintain energy and regulate mood. For this reason, it’s commonly considered as a potential recovery supplement after workouts, especially because people also say it relaxes their muscles.

White Vein Kratom 

Since white kratom is just a younger leaf from the same tree as green kratom, it makes sense that people say the effects are extremely similar. Consumers of white vein kratom generally say that it regulates their mood and helps them maintain high energy.

What is Kratom?

Mitragyna Speciosa Korth. (of the Rubiaceae family) is a 4 to 16 meter high tropical tree indigenous to South East Asia, the Philippines and New Guinea but now cultivated elsewhere.

The phytochemicals isolated from various parts of the tree include over 40 structurally related alkaloids as well as several flavonoids, terpenoid saponins, polyphenols, and various glycosides. The main components in the leaves are mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine, both found only in Mitragyna speciosa.

Mitragynine is an alkaloid with a complex structure present in the leaves of Mitragyna speciosa. (Source: http://www.emcdda.europa.eu/publications/drug-profiles/kratom)

7-hydroxymitragynine is an alkaloid that is found in Kratom but in almost imperceptible trace amounts.

Kratom Strains

Kratom is a tree that grows quite tall. Pictures of trees exceeding 75′ have been taken in Indonesia. Traditionally there are 3 different leaf vein colors.

Green, Red, White, and other colors are simply distinguished by the various methods of growing and drying the leaves. Contrary to popular opinion, there is no “Red Kratom Tree” or “Green Vein Tree”, but there are some trees that produce leaves that tend to have a red vein more so than others but we do not yet know why that is. The vein colors can appear to be manipulated by the spectrum of light that it is exposed to as well (in terms of artificially lighting the trees.)

Thus, the color of veins is still not a known exact science. The fact that people claim there are significant differences may or may not indicate that there is a substantial difference in the plant’s genetics.

FDA’s WAR on Kratom

As you may know, the FDA has declared Kratom is an Opiate and is only going to contribute to the Opiate Epidemic and worsen and even threaten the lives of Americans. All we ask is that the FDA lay down their attacks and FOLLOW THE SCIENCE. As proven and revealed by the American Kratom Association (www.americankratom.org), the FDA has deliberately manipulated the science and evidence to their favor–demonizing the plant that more than 15 million Americans rely on. (See Article from AKA Here)

Here is a small part of that article:

WASHINGTON, DC – August 14, 2018 – Peer-reviewed documentation concerning 44 deaths that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cited to persuade the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to place natural kratom on the Federal Government’s Schedule 1 list of illegal substances disclose errors and omissions on the part of the FDA that the American Kratom Association (AKA) claims can only be seen as “deliberate.”

In a detailed white paper released today, AKA scientist claim, “The FDA has also misled the DEA, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) with incomplete, inaccurate, extrapolated, and distorted information on adverse events and deaths allegedly associated with the use of kratom to encourage unwarranted legislative and regulatory restrictions on kratom at the federal, state, and local government levels.”

Among the most significant claims, the AKA offers evidence of duplicated case reports, omissions of “cause of death” conclusions and inaccurate autopsy and toxicology reports, as well as redacted statements from experts contradicting FDA claims. According to AKA, the FDA reports that associate kratom use with 44 deaths are so “poorly documented they could not pass basic standards for publication in any credible scientific journal, even as a letter or comment.”

How Do We Keep Kratom Legal?

The number 1 thing we can do is sign every petition that the AKA releases! The second, if you can afford, donate even $5 a month to the AKA to support their fight! Third, and in my opinion, the most important, is to pray! We can win this battle but it will take incredible effort and cost. We have the science on our side. There is incredible evidence coming to light indicating not only is the FDA wrong about Kratom being dangerous, but it actually holds promise to AID in the Opioid Epidemic! However, there is a lot of resistances so they are going to fight tooth and nail to keep kratom away from the people who are then forced to use the poisons they say are “safe”!

If Cannabis can go from Schedule 1 drug (which it still is federally), to legal in nearly 40 states because the medicinal value has been proven in science, then Kratom should have the same chance! According to the 8-Factor Analysis by Dr. Jack Henningfield (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5813050/) Kratom has a low potential of abuse or danger. Note that nothing is free of danger. Consult with your doctors before deciding what you will do with Kratom.

The Origins Of Kratom And Its History

Kratom, or Mitragyna Speciosa, is a plant that many people have used throughout history, but it’s recently started to rise to popularity in the Western world. Most people seek out kratom as a type of herbal remedy or supplement, which is why it’s starting to become so popular again. Some people look at kratom as a supplement they can take instead of potentially harmful pharmaceutical drugs.

Where Is Kratom Grown?

Kratom grows naturally in Southeast Asia, where people have already been using it for centuries. Some societies used it as a stimulant, and they would chew on kratom leaves in an attempt to get more energy for their day’s work. These native cultures believe in kratom’s ability to restore appetite, increase energy, and even benefit sexual potency. Over time, tribes began eating it, smoking it, and brewing it like a tea.

Kratom enthusiasts across the centuries have used this natural substance to address their pain in addition to gaining energy. The combination of these two properties made kratom extremely popular among field workers, farmers, and other laborers who had physically demanding jobs. These workers relied on kratom to give them energy as well as soothing the aches and pains that come along with a physically difficult job.

In much more recent history, people have started using kratom as a substitute for opium products. This use of kratom is especially prevalent in the United States, where there is an ongoing opioid crisis and people are looking for alternatives. Since kratom does not contain any opiate substances but can interact with the brain in a similar way, some people believe this makes it a safer substitute for opioids.

For that reason, many Americans use kratom to treat pain instead of turning to pills and other pharmaceutical treatments with potentially dangerous side effects. The complex alkaloid in kratom that interacts with the brain is thought to have less severe side effects and withdrawal symptoms than opioid options.

Kratom Strains

Much like other popular plants, kratom comes in different strains, which are associated with different effects. Depending on where you look or who you ask, you may see kratom broken up into red vein, green vein, and white vein strains. That differentiation is made by looking at the little veins in kratom leaves. Among those more general types, there are also specific types of kratom, like Maeng Da or Green Malay. If you’re unsure about the different types of kratom strains, talk to an expert at your trusted vendor, and they will be able to give you specific information.

The different strains of kratom are often associated with having slightly different effects. For example, some say green or white veined kratom is best for having energy and an uplifted mood. Red-veined kratom, on the other hand, might generally be associated with relaxing effects, and people might use it to address pain. If you’re looking for a kratom to address a specific ailment, it’s best to consult with a trustworthy vendor.

Kratom Capsules/ Powder

While some natives of Southeast Asia used to chew kratom leaves, it eventually became more popular to brew them as a type of tea. Now in the United States, most kratom is normally sold either in capsules or as a powder. The powder is simply ground up dried kratom leaves, and it acts very quickly, which makes it popular. Most people who consume kratom powder do so by mixing it into a drink, and you can still use this form to make a traditional kratom tea.

Some people dislike using straight kratom powder because it requires measuring, which can make a mess. Some people also dislike the taste of kratom, as it can be too bitter for some people. In those cases, people normally find that they prefer kratom capsules. This option is basically pre-measured doses of kratom packaged in gelatin shells. All the customer has to do is swallow the capsule down with some water or any other drink.

These capsules have to dissolve, so the effects may be slightly delayed compared to plain powder. Customers normally report that they can start feeling the effects of their kratom capsules within 15 to 20 minutes. For any kratom-buying option, it’s extremely important to purchase from a reputable source. This will help you ensure that the product is pure and does not contain any harmful additives. It will also help you be more confident that capsules contain the right level of dosing.

There is a third option for kratom consumers, and that’s tincture or extract. This is starting to become more popular but still isn’t as widely used as the powder or capsule methods. This method of consumption is not recommended for anyone who doesn’t already have significant experience with kratom.

What States Have Banned Kratom?

At one point, there was the talk of making kratom illegal in the United States. The citizens rose up, though, and there was an outpouring of support from people who claimed kratom had amazing benefits for them. Support has even come from leading medical professionals at places like Johns Hopkins University. That was enough to keep kratom legal nationally, but some states have decided to make it illegal.

As of 2019, kratom is currently illegal in Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Tennessee, Vermont, and Wisconsin. All of those states have their own legislature that prevents their residents from consuming kratom as a natural supplement or remedy. Other cities have also banned kratom. The District of Columbia, Denver, San Diego, and Sarasota all have regulations against this plant.

Is Kratom An Opioid?

While kratom can interact with the brain in some ways similar to how opioids do, it’s not related to opium. In fact, kratom is more closely related to coffee or chocolate than it is to any type of opioid. That’s part of the reason many people feel more comfortable using kratom than they do with any type of dangerous opioid. There is still a lot of research that must occur before we can start making very definitive claims about what kratom does, but so far it has a lot of early support from scientific and medical professionals.

Kratom is used by some to treat chronic pain, just as an opioid would be. The thought process by kratom enthusiasts is that this natural supplement carries fewer health risks and dependence problems. There are even some very convincing cases where people say they have used kratom to reduce their dependence on opioids. There is still some debate about how possible it is to overdose from kratom alone, because there are few reported deaths, and most autopsies also uncover opioid use.

Even if kratom does pose fewer risks than opioids, it’s still important to consume it responsibly. That means taking appropriate, calculated doses, and purchasing from a trusted vendor with a safe product, as well as taking care not to mix it, or ingest it, with any other substances.
