  If you?re thinking of trying out kratom for the first time, or have tried it before, but are still unsure if you did it correctly, this article is going to help you out. Indeed, kratom has become more and more popular in the last few years, which means that more individuals have considered using it. Now, you can visit Kratomystic to see what they?re offering when you?re ready to purchase. Until then, however, you should make sure you?re as informed as possible, so that you?ll end up making the right choice, and so that you?ll know how to take it correctly. Strains There are lots of strains of kratom out there, each with its own set of properties. This is quit simple to remember, because they are named after the regions they came from, including Vietnam, Sumatra, Kalimantan, Malaysia, Thailand and Borneo. Vein Colors/Types Something else you?re going to notice when looking for Kratom is that each strain is described by a certain vein color, and it may be referred to as fast, moderate or slow. Now, in most cases, with only a few exceptions, the type is correlated to the vein color. In most cases, the following is true:

  • White Vein is seen as the fast type, meaning that its effects are of the stimulating type, being invigorating as well.
  • Yellow Vein is one of the slower types, though not the slowest, which simply means that they have relaxing and soothing effects.
  • Red Vein is the slowest, which means that it has those soothing and relaxing effects we mentioned earlier, but they are more powerful.
  • Green Vein Kratom is seen as being moderate, which means that when taken in higher quantities it has a relaxing effect, while in lower doses, it has a stimulating effect.

The best thing to do when you?re just starting out is to pick a vein that matches your particular needs, and experiment with a few strains of that color, to see whether there are ones that give you a more pleasant effect. Things to Keep in Mind When you?re looking for kratom, make sure you?re using one that is high in quality and organic. You should make sure that it?s freshly harvested, and that the leaves are premium grade. In addition, the leaves should be crushed into a powder, and then sifted, in order to obtain that maximum alkaloid content. This is crucial because these alkaloids are what make kratom so wonderful. There are vendors out there who try to sell kratom that?s not as high in quality at a lower price tag. While paying less is certainly tempting, usually, you get what you pay for. This means that before deciding who to get yours from, you should be sure to do some research. Extracts Ideally, you should stay away from extracts, regardless of whether they are in powder or liquid form, because they will increase your tolerance to it very fast. That?s because extracts are a form of the substance that?s much, much more potent, meaning that there?s a great deal more of the active ingredient in it. How Much to Take As far as dosage goes, usually, 2-4 grams offers a stimulating effect. Nevertheless, you should not start off with this amount; rather you should start with just 1 gram, or even 0.5 grams if you?re really sensitive. After taking the initial dose, wait 45 minutes to add 0.5 grams more, until you reach your desired effect. Those who are looking for pain relief or a soothing effect usually need about 4-6 grams of it. As a general rule of thumb, you should make sure you don?t go about 8 grams. Accurate Measurement Since something as little as one gram can lead to a huge difference, make sure you don?t just use a spoon to figure your dose out. All you?ll need for this is a digital scale that has a 0.01 gram sensitivity. Hydration Some kratom users mentioned that they experienced constipation after taking it for a while. To ensure this doesn?t happen to you, try to drink lots and lots of water. In addition, it can be helpful to stop drinking coffee or other drinks containing caffeine, since it may work to dehydrate you. Also, be sure your diet is filled with fresh fruits, brown rice and vegetables, and other sources of fibers. Kratom comes with plenty of benefits, but to make sure you?re experiencing those, you have to know how to take it, and what sort of things to watch out for.
