Introducing Kratom Blends From Phytoextractum

January 4, 2023 by Phyto

After years of hard work and experience working in the Kratom industry, we’re releasing a new type of product for us. Kratom blends and Enhanced Kratom blends are now available for sale from Phytoextractum! We’re super stoked to announce the launch of these 2 new unique Kratom products.

While you may have seen Kratom blends for sale elsewhere on the market, they are new for us. At Phytoextractum, always stuck with our tried and true selection of products, but after careful consideration, we believe these 2 products will fit our catalog perfectly.

The idea with these two new superior Kratom blends was to combine your favorite strains into one consistent product.

But what does that mean exactly?

Well, Kratom blends are mixtures of several Kratom strains that have been carefully measured and blended. The goal of this process is to combine the best qualities from each strain into a single consistent end product. That’s why each one of our blends was specifically designed and calibrated to ensure our customers enjoy these superior and incredible combinations.

Now, if you’re new to Kratom, understanding the difference between Kratom strains, blends, and all the different products available on the market might feel a little bit daunting!

That’s why, in this article, we’ve highlighted what Kratom strains are before explaining what makes our two new blends so special.

What Are Kratom Strains?

Kratom is an herbal extract from Mitragyna speciosa, a tropical evergreen tree in the coffee family. This tree is native to Southeast Asia. More specifically, it’s indigenous to Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and Myanmar. People in these countries have been using it as herbal aid for centuries.

Now, contrary to common belief, Kratom strains don’t refer to different species of Mitragyna speciosa. In fact, all Kratom products, whether white, green, or red, and whether from Thailand, Malaysia, or Indonesia, are derived from this one species. However, each plant has its own chemical compounds based on geography and local climate. These chemical compounds are called alkaloids. And it’s the difference in alkaloids or chemical composition that creates so many different Kratom strains.

But that’s not all. The age of the leaves when harvested also impacts the chemical composition and, therefore, strain. For instance, if the leaf is harvested while young, it will exhibit white veins, and the Kratom strain produced from these leaves will then be classified as a ‘’white vein’’ strain. Leaves harvested from maturing plants will exhibit green veins producing a Kratom strain classified as a green vein strain. Lastly, leaves harvested from fully maturing plants will show red veins, creating a Kratom strain classified as a red vein strain.

What Is So Special About Our Two Kratom Blends?

Kratom Powder Blend

Our standard Kratom blend is made of our most popular strains, including green, yellow, and red veins. This unique Kratom product is made with a proprietary blending process that ensures a smooth and consistent end product.

Each strain used in our Kratom blend is produced in small batches, maintaining the consistent quality you’ve grown to expect. If you’re looking for something new to try, this product may be just what you’re looking for. It offers a little bit of all of our most popular products, all combined into 1!

Enhanced Blended Kratom Powder 

Our Enhanced Kratom Blend is made by taking the above mixture of popular Kratom strains and adding a proprietary extract as the final ingredient. This product is suitable for people who enjoy Kratom extracts and are looking for something new.

Standardized to contain 5% alkaloids per serving, our Enhanced Kratom blend will not disappoint. Made using a small batch process, this Kratom blend benefits from the same quality assurance standards you will find with the rest of our products.

If you’re a fan of Kratom extracts and you’re looking for something new, we think you’ll enjoy our Enhanced Kratom Blend!

Ready To Try Our New Blends?

At Phytoextractum, we make it our mission to invest the time, effort, and money to create superior Kratom products for our customers. We are always looking for ways to improve our existing catalog to cater to our customers. As always, our products are lab tested to ensure there is no contamination.

In the meantime, don’t hesitate to get in touch should you have any questions about these new Kratom blends or any of our other Kratom products!

Honey Sticks & Their Sweet Origin (Plus New Kratom Honey!)

October 31, 2022 by Phyto

Everyone is familiar with honey, but what do you really know about this sweet, sticky substance?

Honey comes from bees; that much is obvious. But how (and why) exactly do bees put time into creating this nutritious, delicious food? There’s a lot to learn about honey and the many different types of honey that you can enjoy.

Honey sticks are one of the easiest ways to try honey, and we’ve launched our own honey sticks (packed with kratom, of course) that you can order today. Let’s learn more about this sweetener so you can get a taste of what our honey sticks are made of.

All About Honey

What is honey?

Honey is a sweet food that is usually found as a thick liquid. Honey bees make honey by gathering nectar from flowers and other plants. After pollination, the nectar gathered goes through a process inside the beehive before it is stored as a future resource by the bees.

The natural variation in plants causes the variation found in honey. The nectars produced by plants have varying sugar, mineral, and organic compound contents. The honey created by a bee’s hives is very dependent on what type of nectar is gathered.

Why Honey is Made

Why exactly do bees make honey? Do they make it just for humans like us to enjoy?

Of course not!

Honey bees gather nectar to create honey as a food source to help the hive’s health and ability to survive difficult seasons like winter. The daily food source of bees in favorable seasons is actually pollen from the same plants they gather nectar from. 

Pollen is an immediate food source for honey bees and even helps them grow a larger brood. The bees have pollen baskets on their legs which help with pollen collection; nectar is added to the pollen to help compact it for easier transport.

When nectar is brought back to the hive, honey bees add enzymes which cause a shift in the nectar’s chemical composition. As dehydration occurs, the water content reduces, and honey forms.

Different Colors of Honey

If you’ve ever bought honey at the grocery store or a farmer’s market, you’ve probably noticed that the color of honey can vary. In fact, there are seven official color categories used by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to classify honey.

These seven categories are:

  • • Water white
  • • Extra white
  • • White
  • • Extra light amber
  • • Light amber
  • • Amber
  • • Dark amber

“White” honey may seem confusing as there isn’t any honey that is truly white in color. Rather, this designation means that the honey is transparent or very near so.

What exactly do these designations mean, and why are there different honey colors at all?

The color of honey is inconsistent because the pollens and nectars collected by bees vary. Different plants lead to different colored kinds of honey, and one hive can even produce varying colors of honey depending on the season or crop availability in the area.

If you want to get more technical about it, the variation of color can be somewhat attributed to the mineral content of the flower source. Magnesium, sodium, copper, iron, calcium, potassium, surfer, and manganese can all influence the color of honey.

Flavors of Honey

Do the flavors of honey vary alongside its color?

Yes, it can vary. Often, the two vary in similar and expected ways once you learn that lighter honey is more mild and darker kinds of honey have richer, stronger flavors. Of course, there are always going to be some exceptions to this rule. For instance, bees that collect pollen and nectar from tulips create deep-colored honey that has a very mild taste.

Some types of honey are more popular (and common) than others. These are some types of honey you likely come across while shopping:

  • • Blueberry honey: light amber honey with a rounded, full flavor.
  • • Clover honey: among the most popular in the US; mild tasting
  • • Wildflower honey: used for varieties made from miscellaneous or undefined plants

Honey Changes Color

Did you know that honey can change color over time?

No matter what color honey is initially, it is likely that the color will darken over time or when heated. This is natural and normal, but it can confuse your understanding of whether these actions always cause variation in honey’s color. However, we’ve already shown how honey simply comes in many color and flavor varieties!

Just Launched: Phytoextractum’s Honey Sticks

You might wonder why we’re excited to share so much about honey in this blog post, and that’s because we’re excited!

Here at Phytoextractum, we’ve just launched a new product that we know our kratom fans might love: Kratom Honey Sticks.

Kratom honey sticks are a simple, easy way to enjoy kratom. Each stick contains 25mg of mitragynine, and the packaging is as convenient as one might expect from honey sticks. We’ve made sure to introduce a product that might surprise you in both its usefulness and uniqueness.

Enjoying Our Honey Sticks

Our customers have shared that it’s easy to enjoy these honey sticks. The sticks simplify kratom for many and can be eaten directly. Mixing the sticks into your favorite drink or even your kratom tea is also easy – the possibilities are only limited by your imagination. Consider how you like using honey or sweetener and see if kratom honey sticks would work in those applications.

High-quality Service, High-quality Products

As always, we want to remind our customers how important it is to ensure they purchase their kratom and kratom-related products from high-quality vendors. Contamination is a serious risk, and you want to be sure to purchase from vendors with your safety in mind.

We were one of the first American Kratom Association members to qualify for Good Manufacturing Practices certification. We test all products for accurate identification, alkaloid content, heavy metals, and microbial safety. If you have questions about our testing processes, contact us at any time. Every good vendor should be ready and willing to answer these questions; we know we are!

Kratom & Social Media: The Limits Of Discussion

September 8, 2022 by Phyto

Did you know that kratom companies have to be incredibly careful about what we say about kratom? From our packaging to our blog, many topics are off limits due to the current stance of the FDA regarding our product.

One place where kratom businesses are currently most restricted is on social media platforms. Social media companies, whether private or publicly traded, have to carry out their business in line with the laws of the countries they operate in. Although kratom is not and never has been federally illegal in the United States, this leads to some opposition to kratom advertising and posting.

The effects of those restrictions can be seen throughout the industry. Let’s look at the policies around what can and cannot be discussed on social media about kratom.

Why is Kratom Talk Limited?

To understand why there are limits on what can and cannot be said about kratom online, it’s essential to understand that kratom is in a bit of a regulatory gray area. The FDA has made no secret of its dislike of this product, but it has not been successful at its attempt to ban kratom. 

So companies selling kratom are very limited in how they advertise, what they claim, what is written on the packages, and much more. As there isn’t an evaluation that determines exactly what can and cannot be said, the companies are instead limited to avoiding specific topics altogether.

What Cannot Be Said About Kratom

The FDA has been particularly vigilant in enforcing this policy when it comes to kratom. In particular, companies have received warning letters for talking about the following topics on their packaging, marketing posts, and even on their informational blogs:

  • Serving size
  • Different strain effects
  • Customer testimonials and anecdotes
  • How to use kratom
  • How kratom interacts with the body or brain

As you can see, this covers a lot of what kratom consumers may want to know about kratom. This makes it hard for suppliers to talk with their customers about their products and, in some cases, can be very confusing for everyone involved.

Still, companies must respect these rules if they want to stay in business. Instead, they are careful about how they communicate. Even on this blog, we are careful about how we discuss kratom. While it is essential for information going to consumers to be factual, it is also vital that the flow of information isn’t halted altogether.

Kratom on Social Media

How does this limitation on what can be said about kratom online extend to social media?

Before

When kratom first became popular for use in the US in the early 2010s, many social media sites began banning discussion of the substance. This was due to the questionable legal status of the botanical. Social platforms didn’t want to be responsible for any legal trouble and instead avoided talking about kratom.

For many years, this was the norm. Some kratom companies made social media profiles, but their use was limited due to the limitations on what can be said about kratom and the rules of advertising supplement products. Posts can be interpreted as marketing in some cases, and that makes social media companies nervous.

The Present

However, we’re starting to see more and more companies and kratom advocacy organizations appear online. Brands have been more open about their presence as the kratom consumer market has grown and as states have enacted reasonable kratom regulations through the Kratom Consumer Protection Act.

Unfortunately, social media platforms use their community agreements and terms of service to shut down the accounts of kratom companies. Similarly to cannabis companies, kratom brands can’t count on keeping their profiles and pages. They also face “shadow bans” – accounts and posts may not be removed, but they are shown to an extremely limited (if any) audience.

We are still optimistic that positive change is coming. Misinformation about kratom is hard to combat, and it is often spread online in locations where knowledgeable individuals are restricted. This means that there is no clear pipeline to clear up misunderstandings and brands often have no chance to appeal decisions that social media platforms make.

Only time will tell if the shift will continue in this direction or if social media will once again restrict all talk about kratom. For that reason, it’s essential not to rely on social media to get your information about kratom and other topics.

Where to Get Information about Kratom

If you cannot expect to always find information about kratom on your usual social media websites, where should you go to find information? Many kratom users are eager to learn more about the substance, its origin, and its science. However, that information isn’t always easy to find for the reasons we outlined today.

Thankfully, there are several places where you can regularly find interesting and informative posts about kratom, kratom news, and the general kratom community. Some shops have informational blogs, and many advocacy groups periodically share kratom’s latest science and political information.

Here at Phytoextractum, we keep our blog updated with posts inspired by the latest happenings in the community and questions our customers ask us. While there are limits on what we can and cannot say about kratom, we do our best to communicate clearly whenever the topic cannot be covered in-depth due to legal limitations.

If you are looking for updated information with fewer restrictions, visiting sites of advocacy groups such as the American Kratom Association is a great way to do so. They have a page specifically for the latest science being done on kratom, and this is just one of the many dedicated corners they cultivate for curious minds like yours.

Finally, consider reaching out to your local kratom shop. They will be able to talk with you about the products they stock, the information they have, and even connect you with local advocates. This local source of information is powerful, and you can also get involved in grassroots organizations to help legalize and protect kratom in America.

Liquid Kratom Shots: Are They Worth The Hype?

July 12, 2022 by Phyto

Liquid kratom shots are not a new phenomenon. You’ve probably come across these tiny shots of liquid at gas stations or local smoke shops. The packaging often resembles energy drink shots, and there are many similarities in their ingredients list.

As kratom is rising in popularity, these types of liquid kratom shots are increasing in popularity as well. More brands are producing them, so you have many options when you come across them at your local retailer or while shopping online.

Despite how many of these liquid shots exist, does that mean they are a good choice for you? Not necessarily. Today, learn more about liquid kratom shots, what exactly they are, and who might want to give them a try.

What are Liquid Kratom Shots?

Kratom shots look a lot like other “shot” sized drinks, such as energy drinks. You’ll find them at smoke shops and sometimes at gas stations or convenience stores. What are these small liquid shots?

Liquid kratom shots are typically a combination of an energy drink and kratom extract. Unlike standard energy shots, liquid kratom shots claim to boost their energy-enhancing effects naturally with kratom. 

The exact makeup of these liquid kratom shots can vary widely depending on the manufacturer, the flavor, and the quality of kratom extract used to make the drink. Sometimes, multiple types of kratom’s key chemical components are used to make the shots. Some vendors even include synthetic enhancements.

The critical point to remember is that there is no set makeup of liquid kratom shot, and you should review the label carefully to determine what is in the drink before using it. Additionally, it can be helpful to think of these kratom shots as a subcategory of kratom extracts. Let’s learn more about this category and other liquid extracts.

Understanding Liquid Extracts

Kratom powder is the substance made when kratom leaves are ground into a fine, powdery state. This powder or kratom leaves themselves can be turned into a more concentrated version by steeping in certain liquids and then reducing the liquid until the alkaloid content is very concentrated.

That’s how we get kratom extracts. The extracts can be wholly dehydrated into a powder form, or they can be kept in liquid form. There are different types of liquid forms depending on the method of extraction and what is left in the substance after filtration.

Liquid kratom is often made from multiple types of kratom or other additives to affect the final product and potency. For example, we stock different liquid extracts. Some are full-spectrum options, while others are made from isolated kratom alkaloids.

Liquid kratom shots can be considered a type of liquid extract. Liquid extracts come in many different forms; some contain additives just as liquid kratom shots do. However, most kratom users would not consider kratom shots a straight kratom extract due to the vast differences in composition.

What’s The Difference Between Extracts and Shots

#1: Added Ingredients

Liquid kratom extracts may include a full range of kratom alkaloids extracted from the plant or specific alkaloids (usually mitragynine) in isolation. Some extracts contain ethanol as a solvent, and some use water or glycerin as a suspension liquid. However, there aren’t usually any other ingredients added. Liquid kratom extracts are a more pure delivery method than liquid kratom shots.

On the other hand, liquid kratom shots often contain additional ingredients to change the overall purpose of kratom in the shot. Energy drink additives are used in these shots, and they often include the following:

  • • Caffeine
  • • L-Theanine
  • • Passionflower extract
  • • Artificial stabilizers
  • • Other herbal extracts

How all of these ingredients work together has not been studied to any extent, and it’s currently impossible to say if there are benefits or risks when combining them. Kratom on its own is still being studied, and these combinations are largely guesswork.

#2: Different Alkaloids

The effects of kratom on the human body are thought to be caused by various alkaloids found in kratom leaves. Specific alkaloids are found in kratom strains in varying amounts. While mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine are the two alkaloids studied and mentioned most, many other alkaloids are present in kratom plants in small quantities as well.

Kratom extract often contains highly concentrated amounts of mitragynine and smaller amounts of 7-hydroxymitragynine. Many kratom extracts are also full-spectrum products that have some other alkaloids as well.

Liquid kratom shots, however, may contain unknown concentrations and combinations of alkaloids. Some liquid kratom shots contain higher percentages of 7-hydroxymitragynine than are typically found in the natural plant.

#3: Strain Consistency

When buying a high-quality liquid extract from a reliable vendor, you should know which strain is being used to make that product. Most vendors include the name of the primary strain product in the name, and you can expect consistency from batch to batch.

Liquid kratom shots are made from different strains each time. Vendors may use whichever they have on hand, which can alter the drink’s effect. Reliable vendors will have a more consistent process, and this will be reflected in their labels and ingredients.

Safety at Phytoextractum

As with all kratom products, liquid kratom shots and similar extracts are not regulated by the FDA. Most kratom suppliers and manufacturers have their standards, but most states do not require them to meet compliance regulations. While the movement to introduce consumer protections and Good Manufacturing Practices across the country is underway, it will take time for these protections to be in place nationwide.

Until then, we know how important it is for us to take safety into our own hands as one of your favorite kratom providers. We take safety seriously and follow the latest guidelines when producing our kratom extracts.

Through the AKA’s compliance program, we can ensure that our products are being tested, packaged, and sold in the safest way possible. We will continue to hold ourselves to this standard for as long as we provide kratom to our consumers.

No matter where you do your kratom shopping, please take time to vet your vendors thoroughly. Verify that they follow the latest industry safety procedures and provide testing information on their website. If this information is lacking, you may want to choose another supplier for your kratom needs.

What Is Maeng Da Kratom? Get To Know This Strain In Detail

July 9, 2021 by Phyto

If you’ve ever heard Kratom fanatics talking about their favorite strains before, there’s a good chance that at least one person shared how much they love Maeng Da Kratom varieties. What is Maeng Da Kratom, and why do so many people love it?

Learning about specific strains can help you become more aware of what you like and don’t like. This will allow you to create a better blend schedule so that you are always happy with your strains. Start learning more about common varieties today, beginning with one of the world’s most popular categories: Maeng Da Kratom strains.

What Is Maeng Da Kratom?

Maeng Da Kratom is a title commonly given to Kratom, but what is it that this title signifies?

At the most basic level, calling a strain of Kratom Maeng Da means that it is of the highest quality. Roughly translated in Thai, Maeng Da means that the Kratom is “pimp’s quality.” In more common words, it’s the best of the best option.

Maeng Da Kratom is any premium strain of Thai Kratom. There are many different kinds of Maeng Da Kratom options because different vendors, growers, and processors will make their own choices. Maeng Da Kratom trees are grown in highly fertilized regions that are rich in necessary nutrients.

Harvested with great care, this type of Kratom is treated the best of all Kratom grown, dried, and sold. Through this careful practice, Maeng Da Kratom is the best quality strains that come out of some areas of the world.

Is Maeng Da Kratom The Strongest Kratom Strain?

Some people believe that because Maeng Da Kratom strains are considered premium strains of Kratom, they must also be the most potent strains. However, that is not necessarily true.

As mentioned above, the title Maeng Da is given based on where it was grown, the quality, and what the alkaloid content is like. The name is usually only given to strains grown in Thailand, but they are sometimes given to other high-quality regional strains as well.

Quality is not always determined only based on alkaloid concentration. Extracts, for example, are always going to be more concentrated (contain more alkaloids) than regular Kratom powders, but that doesn’t necessarily make them the best choice.

Instead of considering whether or not a specific strain of Maeng Da Kratom is the strongest, think about if it is the highest quality. From experiencing the proper drying process to retain potency to getting the best balance of alkaloids, there are other aspects to consider when looking at different strains of Kratom.

If anything, it would be appropriate to call some Maeng Da Kratom strains the most complex strains on the market. The way that the leaves are cared for ensures a complex, unique blend of alkaloids, and that is what helps Maeng Da varieties stand out.

How Is Maeng Da Kratom Harvested?

Growers and processors take great care to ensure that their premium Kratom can be turned into Maeng Da Kratom. During the harvesting and drying process, this involves putting a lot of extra time into developing the alkaloids in the leaves.

As mentioned, Maeng Da is known for having a complex blend of Kratom alkaloids. This is due to the way that some trees are grafted as well as the drying process.

First, some Kratom growers have grafted together different varieties of their best trees. This enables them to harvest leaves with more varied and complex amounts of alkaloids, and these leaves often become Maeng Da strains.

Second, Kratom processors allow the leaves intended for Maeng Da strains to dry for much longer than other strains. While this costs them more money to monitor and maintain, it will enable the alkaloids in the leaves to develop more than other strains. 

By making these types of simple changes to the production process, growers can ensure that they make the most premium version of Kratom that they can, and these are the strains that become Maeng Da varieties.

Beyond An Extract: What Exactly Is Kratom Resin?

June 11, 2021 by Phyto

Is Kratom resin simply a powerful Kratom extract, or does this substance have a lot more mystery to it? Many people are curious when they hear about Kratom resin because it is not a commonly known or marketed variation of Kratom.

Most Kratom products differ in the strain or concentration, but this substance is unlike powders, crushed leaves, and liquid extracts. In fact, it looks more like tar than it looks like a plant!

What exactly is Kratom resin, and how is it used? Learn more about this unique substance today.

Kratom And Its Many Types

Kratom comes in many different forms, and each of those forms is used differently. From the whole plant to dried leaves to ground-up powders, there are a lot of delivery methods for this unique plant substance.

The most commonly seen types of Kratom on the market are Kratom powders and whole Kratom leaves. These are frequently used to make teas or taken via capsules in order to get a daily amount of Kratom.

Extracts are typically Kratom powders with a higher-concentration alkaloid content than regular Kratom. This allows a higher dose while taking smaller amounts of the substance. While extracts are usually powdered, they also come in liquid, pill, and now, resin form.

What exactly is Kratom resin, and where does it come from?

Where Does Kratom Resin Come From?

Kratom resin is a solid Kratom extract that is made by concentrating Kratom powder into a liquid-based substance and then allowing the liquid to evaporate fully. The hard, sticky solid left behind is sometimes called candy. Kratom resin is typically dark brown or black because of how heavily concentrated it is.

Kratom resin has a high concentration of alkaloids when compared to raw Kratom powders. This high concentration is due to the boiling of Kratom and removing everything that isn’t a highly potent alkaloid concentrate. Kratom resin can be as much as 15 times stronger than other Kratom products and extracts.

Making Your Own Resin

If you’re curious about how to make Kratom resin on your own, keep in mind that these instructions are not specific. They are a general process to give you an idea of what type of work would be involved. Making your own Kratom resin can be risky because the final alkaloid content is difficult to test, so make sure that you proceed with caution.

Generally speaking, these are the steps that must be followed to make Kratom resin:

  1. 1.) Boil Kratom leaves or Kratom powder in water and allow it to steep for a long time.
  2. 2.) Filter out any plant matter or whole leaves.
  3. 3.) Boil until the tea is very thick and has little liquid left.
  4. 4.) Spread the substance out and let it dry for a few days until it hardens completely.

The resin can then be broken up into smaller pieces, and this is how most Kratom resin is processed and consumed.

Buy Kratom online at Phytoextractum

How Kratom Resin Is Used

Kratom resin is a high concentration substance, so only a very small amount needs to be used for the same effects as other delivery methods. Resin is often faster to consume than other types since there is less legwork when using it.

Resin is broken into smaller pieces or crushed into a finer powder. This can then be dissolved into hot drinks, added to your normal Kratom powder, or even put into capsules for easy consumption. 

When adding Kratom resin to hot drinks, many people find that adding some type of sweetener to the beverage can help. The taste is slightly different from that of standard Kratom powder, but it is still strong and bitter for most people.

Limit The Amount

Remember, it is important to always start with less Kratom than you think that you will need to ensure that you do not take too big of a serving. This is especially true with Kratom resin because the concentration can be much higher than other products.

Choosing a resin serving size for the first time is difficult and should be handled with great caution. For this reason, we typically recommend that Kratom users stick to Kratom extracts over Kratom resin.

Warning: Kratom Resin Safety

Most experts recommend that Kratom resin be used sparsely, if at all. Why is this if it’s such a highly concentrated source of alkaloids?

That is exactly why it is also not the best type of Kratom to use regularly. Super concentrated resin is not for those that are new to Kratom, and even those experienced with Kratom varieties should explore resin with caution due to its intensity.

Kratom resin causes very strong effects because the alkaloid concentration will be higher. The concentration is high but not always exact, so it can be hard to know what is inside Kratom resin. This is a big part of why you don’t see a lot of reliable, vetted Kratom vendors selling resin: it’s too risky. The Kratom extracts at Phytoextractum are lab-crafted and standardized, which means we have a much more accurate idea of their alkaloid content.

If you are going to explore resin, make sure that you do so with as much caution as possible. Remember that resin should not be a daily Kratom substitution, and it’s best used sparingly to lower risk and prevent tolerance buildup from the high concentration.

Seeking Unique Experiences

Are you an experienced Kratom user that is ready to find something unique to try? While Kratom resin is certainly one-of-a-kind, there are a lot of potential risks and difficulties that put some people off of it.

Phytoextractum carries two products that might fit the bill for your needs. First, our recently released Ultra Enhanced Indo Kratom Softgels make it easy, effective, and convenient to enjoy Kratom. Another option to consider is a super-enhanced powder extract that you can enjoy any way that you normally prepare Kratom.

Looking for new and exciting Kratom products to try is fun for experienced Kratom lovers, but you should always be mindful to be informed about what you are trying. Sourcing your products from a reliable vendor is a great place to start.
