Description
From the Vendor: Native to South Africa, kanna (sceletium tortuosum) has long been favored as a natural stimulant and pain reliever. In nature, this succulent “groundcover” plant has tiny, thread-like petals.
The South African Hotentot tribe was one of the most well-known societies that used Kanna. The Hotentot are known to chew kanna roots and leaves to get a feeling of euphoria, energy or relaxation. There’s even evidence that prehistoric cultures used kanna too.
Also called “channa” or “kuogoed” – a word that means”chewable” – kanna is gaining popularity outside of Africa. It is available in two basic forms: fermented or unfermented.
Kanna can be used as-is or it can be aged and fermented. The fermenting process takes approximately one week. Traditionally, the kanna plant – leaves, stems and roots – would be crushed and allowed to ferment for approximately seven days. Then, it would be dried in the sun. A similar process is used today.
Fermented kanna has what most regard as a more pleasant flavor and more pleasant effects. It’s also possible to blend fermented and unfermented kanna.

I have been trying the various Kratora kratom alternatives, this being the second from Kratora I’ve tried. Its another pleasant surprise. Also, it appears to be one of the more economical ethno-botanicals. Subtle, and the effects vary some with mode of use. Recommended.

My husband prefers the fermented kanna. Some of its effects intensify with fermentation from what he read. Another awesome surprise.

This is high quality Kanna and the first fermented I’ve tried. Did what it should.
