I can personally vouch for the pain relief capabilities of kratom. A few years ago, I injured my right knee. I had been taking pain pills for a while, they helped to reduce the pain however, the doctor had to keep increasing the dose and it was getting pretty dangerous for me to keep taking strong pain killers on a daily basis.

Stress is a daily part of life, many of us experience severe bouts of stress and some of us need to take medication to help to alleviate the symptoms associated with it. Stress takes place because of excess cortisol in the body and excess cortisol can lead to stress overload. Kratom can help to reduce stress by reducing the production of cortisol in the body.

Anxiety Reliever
Anxiety is a natural response to stress and sometimes it manifests itself in a whole myriad of symptoms such as heart palpitations, sweaty palms, shakiness, dizziness, and more. Anxiety can feel like a heart attack at times, it can feel like everything is going wrong at the same time. Kratom has been known to reduce the feelings that you get when you are experience anxiety. Anxiety disorder is real and sometimes medication is the only way to reduce it. Medication in the form of prescription medication or herbal medicine. Kratom is known as a herbal alternative to certain medicines, and anxiety medication can be replaced if advised by your doctor. Kratom can act as an anxiety medication replacement.
Focus
Just like coffee, kratom can enhance focus and boost productivity. The chemical compounds in kratom can help you to feel more alert and focused. I recommend kratom for people who work long hours and for those that need to focus for long periods of time. My personal experience when it comes to using kratom for productivity has been that it has boosted my productive output dramatically. I work as a web programmer most of the time and I have to sit at my laptop for long periods of time without a break. Whenever I take kratom, I am alert and I get things done with no breaks in my focus at all. Distraction-free work sessions are always possible when I take kratom. I currently taking green Borneo kratom and it is working really well to help me to stay focused and alert. I can certainly recommend it to other people who wish to be more focused.
Energy
My energy levels are through the roof when I take kratom and I have spoken to many other people who have experienced the same energy boost when they take it. To get the best energy boost, i usually take the pills. I have also experienced great energy boosts when I take the powder too. However, I find that the pills work best for me.
Why does kratom help to boost energy?
Kratom helps to boost energy because it stimulates the activation of certain nerves that prompt the release of adrenaline. Kratom is an excellent source of energy for anyone who suffers from any form of chronic fatigue. You should, however, consider the other products or supplements that you are currently taking. For example, if you consume a lot of energy drinks then consuming kratom might not be a good idea. It would be best to cut out the energy drinks if you wish to embark on a course of kratom, no matter what strand you opt for.
Also, it is also vital to bear in mind that if your doctor has prescribed a drug to boost your energy, you should consider consulting with your doctor prior to taking kratom. The combination of prescription drugs and kratom might not be a good one.
Feel Happier
Feel happier and more optimistic when you take kratom. I have been taking kratom for a while now and I generally feel happier when I do take it. One of the questions that I often get when I tell people that I take kratom is, “Is kratom addictive?” Do I feel down when I don’t take it and have I developed a dependency? The answer to that question is this, I have taken other strands of kratom before and I did feel somewhat down when I did not take it. However, with green borneo kratom, I don’t often feel down when I don’t take it. In fact, I deliberately take breaks from taking it to ensure that I do not develop some kind of addiction to taking it.
Why does kratom make you feel happier? The answer is that it encourages the production of dopamine and the serotine. Both of these chemicals send signals to the brain to make you feel happier. Overproduction of these chemicals can actually make you feel high but if you take kratom in moderation, you won’t necessarily feel high but you will feel energetic and happy.
Side Effects
Are there any side effects associated with taking kratom on a regular basis? Ok, in my experience, I have had headaches and muscle pain a couple of times but nothing too intense. I notice that when I do not drink enough water, I get headaches. However, when I drink plenty of water, I never get headaches so my advice to anyone who wants to take kratom or who is taking kratom and experiencing headaches, drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration and headaches will be unlikely.
Here are some of the side effects that some people do talk about:
- Headaches or migraine
- Muscle pain
- Shaking muscles
- Irritability
- These side effects are definitely not serious but there are other possible side effects that could possibly be quite severe. Here are some of those side effects:
- Convulsions
- Liver problems
- Heart palpitations
These side effects are actually quite rare and people should not think about them too much when taking kratom. However, if you do experience any of the above side effects, make a point of going to the emergency room to make sure that it is nothing life-threatening.
