Why Kratom Capsules are Becoming Popular

American Fork, Utah, United States, March 3 2021 (Wiredrelease) Tork Media LLC –:Kratom is an herb that has been used in Southeast Asia for centuries. Traditionally used as medicine in Thailand, Malaysia, and the Philippines, kratom has become a popular medicinal and recreational botanical in the U.S.

Kratom, also known as Mitragyna Speciosa, is indigenous to several Southeast Asian countries and parts of Africa. Traditionally, kratom leaves are pulverized and brewed as tea or the leaves are chewed to create the following benefits:

General pain relief Increase energy levels Reduce musculoskeletal pain Reduce inflammation Act as an analgesic And more

In addition to chewing leaves and making tea from powder, people use other forms of this botanical like kratom capsules, tablets, liquids, and resin. Some people even smoke kratom, although that may not be the best delivery method.

Of all the consumption methods available, kratom capsules are starting to become extremely popular.

Why people are choosing kratom capsules over crushed powders

There are 3 main reasons people choose capsules over powders:

1. Capsules are convenient

People like kratom capsules because they’re easier to take than tea. There’s no prep work involved and all you need is a glass of water.

If you’re drawn to going through the motions of tradition, you’ll probably enjoy dosing out powdered kratom into your tea bags or tea maker, brewing it, and then sipping the hot liquid for a while. If you’re pressed for time or you just aren’t into tradition, brewing tea is cumbersome.

Capsules provide a convenient and effortless way to get kratom into your system so you can enjoy the benefits without doing any hard work. If you’re late for work, you can take a few seconds to swallow a capsule before leaving the house.

2. Capsules are portable

Many people prefer kratom capsules because they’re portable. It’s easy to stick a bottle in a purse or backpack or keep some capsules in a plastic bag in a pants or jacket pocket.

People who take kratom during the day or while at work want portability. You probably won’t find anyone heading to the office kitchen to brew up a batch of kratom tea on their break. It’s possible, but unlikely. It’s easier to just grab a capsule from the bottle and get back to work.

3. Capsules are discreet

Capsules make it possible to take kratom discreetly. Although it’s perfectly legal, it’s a controversial botanical. There are potential negative side effects and since it has opioid-like properties, many people consider it no different from traditional opioids. Although kratom’s main ingredient binds to opioid receptors, many people have found it provides extensive relief without all the problems associated with traditional opioids.

Are kratom capsules safe to consume?

Like every herb, plant, or pharmaceutical, the safety of kratom depends on a variety of factors. There are some people who should not take kratom because of contraindicated conditions. However, many who would be perfectly fine using high-quality, pure kratom have been harmed by taking impure, contaminated kratom.

As with any substance that alters the mind, body, or nervous system, it’s up to each individual to check with their doctor to make sure it’s safe. It’s also up to each individual to do their research and source their kratom capsules from a reliable, reputable source that provides lab results proving the purity of their products.

What does science say about kratom capsules?

Scientific studies have found that in low doses, kratom acts as a stimulant and only produces opioid-like sedative effects in high doses. While there are no controlled studies proving the benefits of kratom, the anecdotal evidence is overwhelming.

However, the FDA has not approved kratom for medical use and should not be used to treat medical conditions. If you’re going to try kratom, talk to your doctor to make sure it’s a safe choice and that you don’t have any underlying conditions that could intensify any side effects.

Will kratom capsules be available in retail stores some day?

Currently, the best place to get kratom capsules is online. However, some gas station convenience stores already sell kratom powder. It’s possible that we’ll see kratom capsules on the shelves sometime soon.

It’s not uncommon to find kratom being sold with CBD and even cannabis products. Some cannabis dispensaries sell complementary herbs and it could soon become normal to find kratom capsules right next to CBD and THC capsules.

For now, kratom remains legal and available to anyone who wants to try it out.
