Experts state that it is probably one of the strongest strains of kratom out there. One of the distinctive things about the red Malay kratom leaves is that the plant grows in very deep water making the leaves very tough, the plant itself is very powerful.

Uses of Red Malay KratomÂ
What are some of the things that you can use red malay kratom for? There are a number of uses, here are some of them:
Relieving PainÂ
There are certain chemicals found in kratom that can help to reduce pain. These chemicals are 7-hydroxymitragynine and mitragynine. Some users have reported a drastic improvement in their chronic pain disorders. It is also essential for you to consider the prescription medication that you might be currently taking. If your doctor has prescribed some medication for pain relief, the best thing for you to do is to discuss your decision to start taking red Malay kratom. Bear in mind that some herbal supplements like kratom can interact badly with prescribed medication. Therefore, it is crucial that you consider your own safety and health before you start taking kratom.
Stress ReductionÂ
Just like other strains of kratom, red Malay kratom can reduce general day to day stress. Feelings of overwhelm, when everything just starts to get too much, sometimes it is necessary to use herbal supplements like red Malay kratom to help you through it. You should also consider the current supplements or medications that you are taking to relieve your stress. These might not react well with the red Malay kratom that you want to take. Try your best to speak with a medical professional or your personal doctor before taking it. Red Malay kratom, just like any other kratom is safe to take however, you must consider the other medications or supplements that you might be currently taking.
Feel More RelaxedÂ
In addition to relieving stress, red malay kratom and other forms of kratom can help to make you feel more relaxed and calm. Kratom makes you feel more relaxed because it contains mitragynine, the same chemical that helps with pain relief and muscle relaxation. Mitragynine connects with opioid receptors in the brain to make you feel more relaxed in general.
Enhance Your MoodÂ
One of the main reasons why people take kratom is to enhance their mood. Often users talk about a feeling of euphoria when they take kratom. Red malay kratom provides the strongest and most effective feeling of euphoria according to some users. This is why some people who suffer from depression choose to take it to help them lift their mood and to reduce that depressive feeling. Why does it make you feel happier? Well, some studies have shown that kratom facilitates the production of dopamine and serotonin. These two chemicals or neurotransmitters contribute to how you feel on a daily basis. Your overall mood is influenced somewhat by the amount of dopamine or serotonin that your body produces.
What is Dopamine?Â
Dopamine is known as one of the significant feel-good chemicals in the brain. It sends nerve signals to the brain and influences how you feel daily. When your body is not producing enough of this chemical, it can have a terrible effect on how you feel. Therefore, it is vital that you try to keep your dopamine levels up by eating more foods that influence its production and by taking a supplement like kratom if it is necessary for you to do so. Lack of dopamine in the body has been connected to the onset and continuation of depression.
To enhance the production of dopamine you can take a look at your diet too. Try and include some of the following foods into your diet to further facilitate the production of dopamine.
- Plenty of fruits and vegetables
- Certain nuts like walnuts and almonds
- Organic eggs
- Dark chocolate
Try and include these foods into your diet more, in conjunction with taking the red malay kratom.
What is Serotonin?Â
Serotonin is also a chemical that passes signals to the brain, it also acts as a feel-good chemical. Lack of serotonin in the body causes various issues such as:
- Low mood
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Anger
- Sleepless nights
- Little or no appetite
- Feeling generally irritated
- Insomnia Prevention or Reduction
Red malay kratom can also be used for insomnia reduction. It helps relax the body enough to either stop or reduce the sleepless nights associated with insomnia.
Benefits of Taking Red Malay KratomÂ
There are a whole myriad of benefits related to consuming red malay kratom. Below are some of the benefits you might feel when you take it:
You Might Feel More EnergeticÂ
Red malay kratom acts as an energy booster. In fact, red malay kratom is one of the strongest strains of kratom so you might get a better high than you would do if you drank a cup of black coffee. Many red malay kratom users report a general feeling of euphoria and high energy.
You Might be Able to Concentrate BetterÂ
I have had personal experience improved concentration when I have taken red Malay kratom. It didn’t work straight away however, after a few weeks of taking it in powder form with juice or water, I found that I could focus much better. I write eBooks for a living and some days I try to write at least 10,000 words a day. It isn’t easy to get it done but if I set my mind to it, I finish and feel extremely accomplished at the end of the day. When I first started taking red malay kratom, after a few weeks, I started to notice a difference in my concentration levels. I could focus for longer periods of time and I noticed that during my 25-minute Pomodoro sessions, I was getting a lot more done. Real focused, efficient, and effective work sessions as opposed to working but not really focusing on what I was doing. I definitely would recommend red Malay kratom to anyone who wants to focus more and get more done. Really good for college students, those that work late nights and for people who spend their time writing on the computer for hours each day.
You Could Feel HappierÂ
You might feel happier, I certainly felt happier after taking red malay kratom for a few months. The ultimate feeling of euphoria certainly did not come straight away, but it did come and now I feel so much better. I was diagnosed with depression a few years ago. I took the standard medication for a while but I found that it was really affecting my productivity and concentration so I stopped taking them. I was searching for an alternative to the usual prescription medication for depression and I heard about kratom. I have tried a few other strains of kratom but I much prefer the red malay variety of kratom the most.
You Might Feel More RelaxedÂ
Even though red malay kratom does make you feel more energetic, it also makes you feel more relaxed when you need to feel relaxed. I have personally experienced this.
You Might Feel Less AnxiousÂ
Feeling less anxious is connected to feeling more relaxed. My anxiety comes in the form of shaking hands and pounding in my heart. An overall feeling of fear and darkness that I find difficult to fully explain. Red Malay kratom does alleviate some of the symptoms that I experience when I feel anxious. In fact, I haven’t had a full-on anxiety attack since I started including red Malay kratom into my lifestyle. I would definitely recommend it for anxiety, but as I have stated previously in this article, speak to your doctor about it first.
Side EffectsÂ
You might experience some side effects when you take red malay kratom. I personally only experienced a slight headache right at the beginning but nothing too intense.
Here are some of the side effects that are possible but not certain:
HeadacheÂ
Headaches are possible but not certain. I would suggest that you up your water intake if you start getting headaches.
Muscle spasmÂ
I personally think muscle spasms come when you take more than you should take. Therefore, it is important that you stay mindful when you take red Malay kratom, especially when you first start out.
FitsÂ
This is a very severe side effect and it should not be taken lightly. You should go straight to the hospital if you experience any kind of seizure after taking red Malay kratom.
DehydrationÂ
Dehydration can be dangerous but you can prevent it by taking plenty of water and drinking fresh coconut water if it is available.

Follow these guidelines when it comes to dosage
- When you first start taking red malay kratom: 2 grams

- After a few more weeks 2.5 grams

It can also help you to focus more, if you need to get things done, it can help you with that. Always talk to your doctor especially if you are already taking medication for another illness.
