Canna African adaptogen extract 10% 1 gram
African Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum)
Kanna has been used for centuries by local South African communities to improve mood and reduce stress. It was used as snuff to induce euphoria and alertness, or chewed for mild pain relief in the mouth. Kanna was also used as an aid in fighting alcohol addiction.
What is Kanna?
Kanna grows in Africa. We are interested in Kanna Extract for its alkaloids. The alkaloids contained in Kanna include: mesembrine, mesembrenol, tortuosamine.
Mesembrine — this is the primary alkaloid.
Mesembrine acts as a serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), which increases the levels of this neurotransmitter in the brain, promoting mood enhancement. Sometimes it is used to relieve emotional tension and stress, and it does not cause addiction or have serious side effects in moderate doses.
Usually, about 150 milligrams of Kanna Extract is needed to achieve an effect.
Why use Kanna Extract?
Studies have shown that the alkaloid mesembrine interacts with the brain's serotonin receptors, providing an antidepressant effect and reducing anxiety levels.
Kanna Extract is typically used to boost mood and reduce stress. For our 10% Extract, the dose may vary depending on the form of use and individual body characteristics. The recommended amount is from 50 milligrams to 200 milligrams per day. It is important to start with the minimum dose and gradually increase to assess the body's response.
Please note: the reaction to Kanna is individual and may differ from expectations. These recommendations are general guidelines.
Kanna is used for various purposes. Here are the main ones:
- Reduces anxiety, stress, and tension - Many people take Kanna to relieve anxiety. It acts as a relaxant and helps combat insomnia.
- Improves mood and stimulates - Taking the Extract provides a surge of energy and improves mood. It's great if you need to feel invigorated.
- Facilitates communication - By improving cognitive brain functions, increasing alertness, and reducing anxiety, communication becomes easier, and thoughts clearer.
- Helps with insomnia - Due to its calming effect, Kanna is used to normalize sleep.
- Assists in fighting alcoholism — Kanna is sometimes used to overcome alcohol addiction. It reduces anxiety and improves mood, which helps decrease the desire to consume alcohol.
Microdosing is Powerful
Consistency and Intention Bring Deep Benefits. Microdosing Kanna may not provide significant effects immediately, but its cumulative effects can be profound if taken regularly and with intention.
A Kanna macro-dose ranges from 30 mg to 60 mg of mesembrine. It is important to familiarize yourself with the potential risks and benefits of Kanna macro-dosing. For those considering such an experience, it is recommended to seek guidance from an experienced facilitator to ensure a safe and mindful experience.
Duration of Kanna Extract Effects
The duration of Kanna’s effects depends on the method of consumption. If a Kanna tonic is taken sublingually, which is considered the most effective method for absorption, the effects usually begin within approximately 15 minutes and can last from one to two hours.
Kanna in beverages, which must first undergo digestion and liver processing, takes longer to act—usually from 30 minutes to an hour. However, the effect of a Kanna beverage often lasts longer—from two to four hours.
How to Properly Use Kanna Extract?
There are several ways to use it. We will describe them all:
- Add 200-300 milligrams (one-eighth of a teaspoon) of Kanna Extract to a glass of any beverage and enjoy.
- Place 100-150 milligrams of the Extract in your mouth, under your tongue, or behind your lip, hold it for a minute, and then drink water.
- The third method is the most inconvenient. You can use the Extract as snuff. Take 50-100 milligrams of powder and inhale it through your nose.
