Over the past few years, more and more people –from everyday joes to lawmakers and medical experts –are seeing the benefits of using organic, all-natural alternatives to prescription opioid medications that could lead to addiction.
This is why Kratom is becoming even more popular in recent times, as the all-natural, organic product has been seen to be highly successful in the treatment of various pain-related maladies, insomnia, and as all-natural alternative to boosting a person’s mood.
First imported into the United States in the ‘80s, Kratom has since become a popular organic medicine that has seen usage by both private citizens and medical institutions around the country. Of all the different strains of Kratom, premium Bali Kratom powder–also known as Red Kratom or Bali Kratom –is one of the most popular strains for pain relief.
What Is Red Bali Kratom?
Often called as the “Red Wine of Kratom”, the Red Bali strain is popularly referred to as premium Bali Kratom, or simply, Red Bali Kratom. While the exact origins are up for debate –some experts believe to actually be a blend of the Borneo and Sumatra strains while some people believe it’s a plant specific to the Jongkong jungles of Indonesia –one thing is for certain: it’s a powerful plant renowned for its analgesic and sedative powers.
The “red” part of the name comes from the fact that this specific specie of the Mitragyna speciosa plant has red-colored veins covering its leaves. It has been used extensively by the people of Southeast Asia for millennia, either as medicine, religious incense, or even as a social substance like alcohol.
What Does Red Bali Kratom Do?
Although its effects are pretty potent, its actual potency is actually quite mild. What does this mean? Well, it means that the effects of Red Bali Kratom are extensive and can be felt almost immediately, with the effects lasting for hours on end. However, the intensity of the effects are relatively mild, meaning Red Bali Kratom can be used without its effects having a detriment to a person’s day-to-day activities.
While Red Bali Kratom has a host of positive effects on its users, here are some of the most popular ones:
Produces Euphoria In Users
The Red Bali Kratom strain is known for its powerful, yet subtle, euphoric effects that have been known to lift moods and improve emotional stability. However, unlike the Maeng Da or Thai Kratom strains, the Red Bali Kratom’s euphoria lasts for only a few minutes, quickly being replaced by a relaxing, sedative effect.
A Tool For Managing Insomnia
This sedative property of the Red Bali Kratom strain makes it an invaluable medicine for people suffering from insomnia or chronic sleep issues. Even at relatively low doses, users can take advantage of the post-euphoric sedation as an opportunity to catch up on some sleep.
Powerful Analgesic Effects
Kratom is widely known for its analgesic, pain-relieving effects, but Red Bali Kratom is known specifically for this because of its exceptionally effective powers of reducing chronic pain almost immediately. This is especially useful for people suffering from opioid addiction, as Red Bali Kratom can be used as a safe alternative to prescription painkillers, gaining powerful pain-relieving effects but without the side effects of traditional pharmaceuticals.
A Quick Guide To Red Bali Kratom Dosage
As with other Kratom strains, however, the Red Bali Kratom strain’s effects are best experienced when used with the proper dosage: too little and you won’t be maximizing its efficacy, while too much and you might bring out some unwanted negative side effects. While a “correct” dosage will vary from person to person, some factors influencing this can include:
- Age
- Weight
- Metabolism
- Fitness levels
- Existing Kratom Tolerance (if applicable)
In general, however, many people have experienced certain effects at certain dosages. People have reported that “Low” doses of around 2 to 4 grams will often induce a mild boost to both mood and energy. Meanwhile, “moderate” doses of around 4 to 6 grams have been known to induce relief of mild pain while providing some calming, relaxing effects. At “high” doses of 8-10 grams, chronic pain relief and sedation are often reported, and it is here where you will find many ‘experienced’ Kratom users.
For first-time Kratom users, however, it is often suggested that they start with around 0.5 to 2 grams. At those levels, the effects will be mild, but it’s better to start off at low doses and gradually adjust to higher doses over a long period of time. This is to ensure that your body does not build a tolerance to Kratom quickly (or, in some cases, at all), allowing you to feel positive effects as often as possible.
As with any substance, be it Kratom, alcohol, THC, or even OTC medication, any type of excess consumption can and will lead to negative side effects. Be smart and only take the dosage you need.
