African Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum)
Kanna has been used for centuries by the indigenous people of South Africa as a mood-enhancing and stress-relieving remedy. It was consumed as a 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 its alkaloids. Alkaloids found in Kanna: mesembrine, mesembrenol, tortuosamine.
Mesembrine — this is the primary alkaloid.
Mesembrine acts as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), increasing the levels of this neurotransmitter in the brain, promoting mood enhancement. It is sometimes used to relieve emotional tension and stress, and it is non-addictive with no significant side effects in moderate doses.
Typically, it takes about 5 grams of ground Kanna to achieve an effect
Why Use Kanna?
Research shows that the alkaloid mesembrine interacts with serotonin receptors in the brain, providing an antidepressant effect and reducing anxiety levels.
Kanna extract is typically used to enhance mood and reduce stress. The dosage may vary depending on the form of consumption and individual characteristics. The recommended amount is 50 mg to 200 mg of mesembrine per day. On average, in 10 grams, there is 0.5-1.5% mesembrine. In 5 grams of Kanna powder, there are approximately 50 mg of mesembrine. It is important to start with a small dose and gradually increase to assess the body's response.
Note: The reaction to Kanna is individual and may differ from expectations. The recommendations are general.
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 with insomnia.
- Boosts mood and stimulates - Taking the extract provides a burst of energy and improves mood. Ideal for when you need a pick-me-up.
- Facilitates communication - Due to improved cognitive function, alertness, and reduced anxiety, communication becomes easier, and thoughts clearer.
- Helps with insomnia - Kanna is used to normalize sleep thanks to its calming effect.
- Aids in fighting alcoholism — Kanna is sometimes used to overcome alcohol addiction. It reduces anxiety and improves mood, helping to curb alcohol cravings.
Microdosing is Power
Stability and Intent Bring Deep Benefits. Microdosing Kanna may not provide significant effects immediately, but its cumulative effects can be profound when taken regularly and with intent. On the other hand, a macrodose of Kanna ranges from 50 mg to 200 mg of mesembrine. As with any psychoactive substance, it is essential to understand the potential risks and benefits associated with macrodosing Kanna. For those considering this experience, it is recommended to seek guidance from an experienced facilitator to ensure a safe and thoughtful experience.
Duration of Kanna Extract Effects
The duration of Kanna's effect depends on the method of consumption. If Kanna tonic is taken sublingually, which is considered the most effective method for absorption, the effect typically begins after about 15 minutes and can last from one to two hours.
Kanna in beverages, which undergo digestion and processing in the liver, takes longer to take effect — usually from 30 minutes to an hour. However, the effect of a beverage with Kanna extract often lasts longer — from two to four hours.
Choosing between these methods allows users to tailor their Kanna experience according to personal preferences and schedule, whether it's for a short-term impact or a prolonged effect of this plant.
How to Properly Use Kanna Extract?
There are several ways to consume it. We'll describe them all.
- Add 3-5 grams (half a teaspoon) of Kanna powder to any drink and enjoy.
- Place 2-5 grams of powder in your mouth, under your tongue, or under your lip, hold for a minute, and then swallow with water.
- The third method is the most inconvenient. Kanna can be used as snuff. Take 2-5 grams of powder and inhale through the nose.
