Kanna Powder

Hi Nessa, I recently ordered a sample of this stuff, too, but I also don't know how to take it or what it's effects are supposed to be.

What I ve read so far, there are different ways to take it. I'm definitely not snorting it! I think I will try placing a small amount under my tongue for 20-30 mins. Or the chewing gum method seems okay as well. My problem is going to be figuring out how to measure this stuff out. My food scale doesn't wiegh kilograms, just grams.

A kilogram is 1000 grams, so just go off of that! :-bd

Sorry I meant milegrams

OK, you could actually still run it through a similar process. Just weight out a gram, split it into 10 and you've got 100 milligrams each. Best of luck!

I do not have a scale that weighs in mg just grams. How can I "guesstimate" how much to start with? I'll either try putting it under my tongue or smoke it. Or if anyone has any other methods...

Get one of these..Works great and a great price..very accurate..

kanna is pretty safe, I haven't had any for a while but I would take like 3 "00" size capsules full and it worked really well. That stuff makes you nice and relaxed like bed time relaxed. That wasn't the extract though it was just powdered material. I kinda want to get it again sometime but the kratom has been working wonders for my sleep.

I've read that Kanna can also be stimulating in low doses? Have you ever tried it this way? Or is it always sedating no matter the quanty used?

I tried mine and got nothing. Maybe I didn't take enough or took it wrong. I put it under my tongue and about 10 minutes later I swallowed it.

Hi Guys!

I used to work with a construction company, so some night I wouldnt be able to move. So when I needed a real good muscle relaxer I would take my (Maeng Da Kratom dose, with the Turmeric, My Kanna capsules (since they synergise well with Kratom) and drink it with thr Grapefruit juice. That worked great for me!

Take it easy!

Thank you for sharing that you carry Kanna. I only had one supplier I trusted. I can't afford to use it often, but it helps me in a similar way to reap the supposed benefits of an SSRI without all the awful side effects. I placed an order to try it as a splurge. A "treat". Like ice cream - without the calories. Wish I could afford to use it regularly. Anyway, thanks for sharing your tip on a kanna source. Gotta love this forum!

Nessa did you ever try the Kanna? How was your experience with it? Was it stimulating or sedating? I been wanting to give it a shot as well.

Kelso, I did try it and it is very relaxing and mood uplifting. I will definitely keep taking it. I got mine this time from Top Extracts.

jason, How many grams do you take? I know you've said but I can't remember which thread.

I have never Tried Kanna Powder. I'll have to try it in the Future. I've heard it is good for Depression. I have heard you have to take it for a week to two weeks before it starts working. 😕 Is that True?

I use kanna as a replacement for pharmaceutical SSRI's for my depression.
Thank you, Top Extracts, for my most recent order. I also find a need to use it over several days before a noticeable improvement.
ANYTHING to avoid the side effects (and waiting period) of pharmaceutical SSRI's. They tend to make me feel hopeless and suicidal. Cymbalta and Wellbutrin were my most recent attempts at trying it the medically recommended way. In both cases, I was stuck in bed with no ability to try and get up and resume life. They were awful. I forgot to mention that I tried elavil and had an allergic reaction - hives and body swelling. Good luck with kanna! I recommend it highly for people who respond better to natural remedies for depression 🙂 Mad Max, there's no way you have to wait a week! More like a couple, three days! Tops!

Hey Guys,

Yea I think a lot of people are missing out on this other great herb or just don't really know about it.

I take it twice daily, 400mg, once capsule in the morning, and one capsule in the evening. And with me one of my Kratom doses is in the evening, and for me the Kanna and my other couple potentiaters gives my Kratom a big Punch, and I think it has also helped out in why after almost multiple years of using Kratom I still have stayed from gaining any Kratom tolerance.

But yes, I think and hope more people start finding out more and trying out Kanna because it can help in many areas, especially when you have pain conditions (along, with Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Etc...), and you have been on pharmaceutical's like SSRI'S (Zoloft, Celexa, Paxil, Prozac,). And I say that because Kanna works on a lot of the same serotonin receptors those anti depressants do.

Take care guys!

Quite the opposite for me. No drowsiness, just depression lightening. its like an SSRI without all the ill side effects. But please use caution until you know how it effects YOU - we all have different problems, use different supplements, and struggle. This group is ESPECIALLY fragile, emotionally and physically. We all suffer from trauma, injury, etc. BEING a fragile group, it's with extra care that we must support one another to heal, grow, and be happy with our unique flaws and quirks.

No waiting time, in my experience. It is NOT a problem solver, and Kanna does not make me "high", just a bit less "stuck" on difficult days (so I use it up to twice daily ) I struggle with being depressed and "stuck" every day. Always have. I used alcohol from a very early age to cope. Luckily I survived. Some days I only survive as a promise I made to loved ones. Herbs have kept me safely FAR AWAY from alcohol use for over 2 years now (long story as to why it took so long). and therefore, saved my life!

Congratulations on 2 Years Clean. That is very Impressive.=D>

Kanna sounds like it is just as beneficial as Kratom is. I will definitely have to try it out for my Depression, Anxiety & OCD. Thanks very much for the Info everybody! :-bd
