Does Kratom Stem and Vein have alkaloids?

So far more than 45 alkaloids have been isolated from Mitragyna speciosa and there is much variation between trees from different locations and some seasonal influence (Shellard et al., 1978).

Kratom Stem and Vein

The biogenesis of all these alkaloids is unknown and it is possible that precursor alkaloids are synthesised in the root and travel upwards through the vasculature. There could be tissue specific modifications of such precursors resulting in different alkaloid patterns in different tissues (Shellard et al., 1978). In other Mitragyna species such as M. Parvifolia it was shown that stem and bark tissue clearly contain different alkaloids from leaf tissues (Shellard and Lala, 1977). It is not clear which alkaloids are predominantly present in S&V of Mitragyna speciosa material and how exactly these alkaloid fractions differ from sieved leaf.
Although total alkaloid levels are lower than in leaf there is supposedly relatively more mitragynine present in S&V. Also levels of some interesting Uncaria alkaloids are thought to be higher. The most predominant one is probably Mitraphylline. Rhynchophylline and Corynantheidine are also frequently mentioned.

How much Kratom should I take?

Genetic Maeng Da

Ah, a heck of a question with no real definitive answer. The reason is because there are alot of different kratom strains out there. Also, the fact they it is grown in different regions with different soil properties, makes it hard to hit the nail on the head of this question. As a rule of thumb, one should always stay on the safe and responsible side and start with a real low dosage – For the very potent Genetic Maeng Da or Pimps Grade Maeng Da, 1g should be enough. With other strains, start at 2g and work your way up. With 2g of regular Kratom, everybody should be completely safe. So, start with 2g wait a half hour to an hour, and if not enough is happening, take another gram of Kratom. It will not need more than a few trials and you will know very well how much you need to take from which product to achieve the effects desired by you. Sometimes it takes a while to figure out which strains is best for you and which one you should try.
