trying new strains
I'm pretty new to using kratom. I use it for energy and pain relief for arthritis and a bad back. I want to be able to have a life. I know everyone is different and its not big pharma saying take 2 and your good. So I know I need to find the right balance. I believe I have found my perfect dose ay 5-7 grams. I have used green vein and maeng da. Both have the properties I need. I want to try the red vein variety
but I can't be sedated. So after all this my question is does red vein always bring on sedation? I've bought from several vendors and they all worked fine. Any thoughts?
Red Vein Thai seems to have a bit more energy for me while still lending the pain relief of the red vein strains. It's one of my personal faves. Actually, yellow strains are also a good middle ground strain too... both relaxing and stimulating with some pain relief. This is off the kratom topic, but have you also tried some stinging nettle tea for your arthritis? It works wonders for one of my good friends. It's safe to mix with kratom too, and not sedating.
I find that the Red Meang Da, although great for pain relief, does seem to be more sedating than the Red Thai. Of course like TopExtracts said, it's a bit of trial and error before you find what suits you best. Everyone's different. The Red Thai that I use is more energetic for me. I can't take it before bed. As all kratom varies, venders will have differences between the products, even if they're the same strain. Someone else's Red Thai may be sedating and vice versa...

I find superindo to make me feel more euphoric and quite energizing :S. I love the greens also but i also enjoy Vietnam strain as i find that the most energetic + euphoric. I do not like feeling sedative sometimes.
