“In Thailand I usually eat the fresh kratom leaves - staright off the tree. The taste is extremely bitter and I struggle to get them down everytime. However, once in the stomach, the effect is surprisingly quick to set in. Small dosages (1-5 leaves) tend to get me "speedy", aroused and talkative. Higher dosages (5-20 leaves, consumed at once) have a "downer" effect much like a opium-like state of mind and body. The small dosages work great as a party starter/advancer in combination with alcohol whereas the higher dosages, for me, are incompatible with alcohol. The shredded leaves we get in Europe i would recommend eating. They are, needless to say, not that easy to consume. But dont be fastidious; put a handfull in your mouth and be sure to have plenty of water to gulp it down with. Take another handfull if needed.”
