kratom is wild. It's like vicodin, real mild, euphoria, pain relief bolstered by other nsaid. I use Maeng Da "strain". Don't rely on other people for dosing info, you have to find your strain and dosage, If you get capsules, make sure you know how many milligrams are in each capsule so you can correctly dose across brands or vendors.
you can buy the powder and mix it with hot water and a fat (it's hydrophobic), or load it into capsules yourself.
it's a leaf. From a tree. Nice.
