Super Kratom vs Regular

Super Kratom vs Regular

Kratom has become one of the latest natural herbal treatments on the market, and its uses for pain relief, opioid withdrawal and stimulation are just some of the effects that have come to light. 

For new users and some experienced Kratom users, the amount of variety available can be confusing, and choosing the suitable strain for each user takes some pre-research. As well as the different names, some hold the title ‘Super.’ Many wonders; what is the actual difference between Super and regular Kratom?

What does Super Kratom mean?

Super Kratom is the name given to certain types of Kratom harvested differently from regular Kratom. The Mitragyna Speciosa is the plant where all Kratom comes from, but to get the Super type, intricately and painstakingly, only the most mature leaves are picked.

It would be best if you mixed in no stem with the leaves, and the largest leaves are the focus, as the increase of surface area means that the leaf contains more alkaloids.

Alkaloids are the primary chemical compounds that cause Kratom to affect humans the way it does. They attach to the brain receptors, creating feelings of euphoria, and blocking pain receptors similarly to painkillers. 

The two main alkaloids are called mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine. The increase of these two chemicals causes these leaves to be labelled as ‘Super.’ [1] 

What is the difference between Super Kratom and regular? 

Regular Kratom is known for its many different effects. Some users take Kratom for insomnia, while others turn to it to beat fatigue and boost energy. It’s also known to increase concentration, treat pain and has been used for coughs and diarrhea. These effects are caused depending on the type, or strain, of Kratom and the dosage amount. 

The three main strains are broken down into; Red, Green and White Veins. The colours symbolize the vein’s colour that runs down the leaf, and often names are given to the leaves depending on their country of origin. 

The primary difference between Super Kratom and regular is the concentration of alkaloids. Due to their large surface, Super strains have more alkaloids, creating a higher potency level which will mean more potent effects when consumed. 

Types of Super Kratom

There are many common species to choose from and several super options. Below is listed some of the most popular super strains:  

Super-Indo

Super Indo, originating from Indonesia, is a well-known strain that provides relief from anxiety and increased focus, all accompanied by feelings of happiness and euphoria (depending on the dosage). It isn’t the strongest strain; however, the effects occur with the user feeling calm and relaxed to go about their daily activities as usual.[2]

Super Green Maeng Da 

The regular version of Maeng Da is well known, and its Super counterpart also has well-received effects. Users might feel intense stimulation, energized, mild euphoria, and increased focus depending on the quantity consumed. This type of Kratom has a shorter duration of effects compared to others. [3]
