Kratom is energizing only when taken in small dosages

The energising effect of Mitragyna, the active ingredient in Kratom, is closely linked to dosage. At low doses, it is often associated with a more stimulating and uplifting experience, while higher doses are typically described as more relaxing or sedating.

People who use low amounts frequently report feeling more awake, mentally clear, and physically capable. Commonly mentioned effects include increased energy, improved alertness, enhanced sociability, and greater physical stamina. Because of this, low-dose use is often associated with daytime activities that require focus, movement, or sustained attention.

Research into the enrgizing effect of Kratom

According to a 2020 study byRamanathan, Surash & McCurdy, Christopher R states: "Kratom has been traditionally used for increasing stamina of outdoor laborers (farmers)". Another study named "IN VIVO STUDY OF PROTEIN MITRAGYNA SPECIOSA (GREEN VEIN) AS ENERGY BOOSTER" by Mohd. Kamal, N.H. et al. looks into the effect of lower and higher dosages of Mitragyna. It is clear from the study that lower doses have a more energizing effect.

It is important to note that responses can vary from person to person, and the energising effect is not reported at higher doses. Starting low and paying close attention to personal sensitivity is commonly advised within user communities.
