Publisher's Synopsis
What is kratom, and why should you bother learning about it?
Kratom or Mitragyna speciosa is a tropical tree that belongs to the coffee family. It naturally grows in Southeast Asia and has been used in traditional medicine to relieve pain, increase energy and sexual desire, and speed up the healing of wounds. In Thailand, kratom is traditionally used as a special snack to welcome guests. Kratom can be used both as a stimulant and a sedative, depending on the dosage. It can be used to treat depression, excessive stress, and digestive issues. By the way, it's not detected by conventional drug tests. However, if used incorrectly, kratom can cause serious side effects and even kill you. You need some highly specialized knowledge to be able to choose the correct dosage and avoid creating dangerous mixtures with other substances. Besides, there are lots of low-quality kratom products in the market, and you must know how to detect and avoid them.
This is where this book by Trevor Phillips comes in. It's a uniquely detailed guide to the safe use of kratom and health benefits.
Before you refuse to try kratom because it's not legally approved and regulated, remember that it has a long history as a healing plant in Southeast Asian medicine. It can be unsafe and even deadly, but only if you don't know how to use it. Once you're equipped with the right knowledge, you have nothing to fear.
Stay safe and have fun!
