Kratom question

[Mshake]

Well, i have been looking on Erowid about a lot of peoples reactions to kratom, and almost all of them are negative. Now i know every person is different, but really i see a common theme of people getting sick and throwing up after taking it. I have not tried it, but was looking at trying some. However, after all I have read, i am not sure i want to. I know how my body handles opioids, and lets face it, we can all get a little queasy with the tea and what not. What is the general consensus of my peers? Is kratom worth it?

kratom is awsome, not as strong as a true opiate but still awsome. try some of the full spectrum extract from BBB. 3/4 - 1g should be a nice dose. the only thing i dislike is that it only lasts for about 2hours, not alot of happy time

i moved your thread here to get a little more attention.

you'll find some varying opinion on dose, type and method. i prefer isolate extracts and/or infusions. it can become a little spendy, but it's the real deal.

I found some capsules of kratom on ebay, and was considering giving them a go. Its amazing how terrible the erowid reviews were of kratom... mostly vomiting and being dizzy. sounded like the worst parts of poppy tea . But i do appreciate the feedback

I make a tea out of the kratom. Ive eaten it just as well but the tea is easier to get down. 10g is what I gravitate towards. Lasts much longer that 2 hours though. I once at 14g or so and I did get nauseous just like when you drink too much poppy tea or eat too many pods. I didnt hurl and the illness went away within an hour or so. I like kratom and have nothing bad to say about it other than the price.

[i.p.freely]

kratom is a good alternative to opiates for pain relief . If you have a strong love for the opiate high , and are looki9ng for this to be the same - you wont be satisfied. It does last a good long while, and will ease pain, but the high is a distant child to a true opiate. hope this helps.

I use it all the time. its great anelgesic and a great way to ease WDs. Kratom will only disrespect you if you disrespect it. start small, work up slowly, and pre trest every batck for potentcy. And above all stay away from anything other than the natural leaf form. when these "venders" extract the plantmaterial, they only get a select few compounds. and usually the ones that make you sick at any dose, when taken alone.

I allways get leaf or powdered leaf and fill "00" caps to take. some warm tea will help it kick in faster. does cause gas. other than that i have never had any problems with it as long as moderation comes into play.
