Kava is a depressant, while Kratom is a stimulant — which means they have opposite effects on the body.
>Melillo, who is based in East Greenwich, Rhode Island, explained that kratom and kava each bind to different receptors in the brain, and can be extremely overstimulating in combination.
>Kava, which is used to reduce stress and anxiety, binds to the same receptors as benzodiazepine drugs, like Xanax and Valium.
>Kratom interacts with the same receptors as opioids, which poses a risk of addiction and withdrawal.
Lol, how is this legal, and has anyone here tried it? does it gets you high or is it just addictive without any sort of high?

Food and cooking?

>>21515220
Yeah, it kombucha, there a fucking thread about Dr. Pepper and one about mcnugget sauce going on right now, don't get high and mighty with me.

>>21515217 (OP)
People get severely addicted to this stuff.

>>21515217 (OP)
Ive had lots of people tell me
>muh kraton is NOT addicting
but whenever the market it blew up, I asked the the owner of the cigarette shop about it and he wouldnt even sell it to me, said if I wasnt getting off opiates then it would just be getting me addicted. IDK, the snake oil salesmen not selling to me kinda settled it for me.

generally speaking no over the counter product has enough quantities of its so-called active ingredient to cause any significant effect

i'd be impressed if this actually does fuck your brain and not just make your pee expensive

>>21515222
Sorry, I'm a fat manchild. I've contributed in both of those threads and many more like them. I forgot myself a little, probably because I needed to masturbate

>>21515222
That's not kombucha retard.

>>21515220
It's consumable.

>>21515803
this is just untrue
At any smoke shop, you'll find plenty of synthetic opioids that make a business of having obscene quantities of technically-not-illegal-yet substances (7-oh, etc)

>>21515217 (OP)
Must taste abhorrent; kava and kratom themselves are already pretty grim. Neither is even pleasant effects-wise either. Who's throwing eight bucks or whatever at this stuff?

>>21515847
tripping on alkaloids is a bad idea

>>21515220
Beverages count, wannabe janny.

>>21515406
Kratom is a bad idea but I'm laughing at the idea of a smoke shop getting high and mighty about it.
90% of their profit is from selling fake weed and Chinese heavy metal vapes to retarded children.

It's like four loko but for cottagecore lesbians

i tried kava, it just made my tongue kinda numb for 20 minutes. not worth. also massive pain in the ass to prepare.

kratom i last had like a decade ago and it was just a really weak opiate that i had to keep retaking like every hour. tolerance builds up fast too which is gay.

>>21519042
tbf this was before you could get most of that, they sold glass and tobacco, but yeah half the store converted to kratom over night. Im sure you could get all sorts of concoctions in it now.

Grim how addicts will shoulder their way in anywhere in it?

Whether or not it belongs on this board is a completely different matter. Kombucha is fermented tea. You're posting about kratom and pineapple juice.

No one is standing folded in the streets on kratom

It sucks that the extracts exist because they'll use them as an excuse to ban all kratom - when raw leaf makes a pleasant tea
