What is Enhanced Kratom?

Part our our new line of goodies on our website is enhanced Kratom blends! So what is enhanced Kratom? Enhanced Kratom is taking plain leaf Kratom which can be any of the many strains  and adding an extract to this plain leaf Kratom to strengthen the effect.

Kratom Extract
Kratom Extracts are very concentrated forms of the alkaloids in the Kratom leaf derived by extracting these alkaloids and only these alkaloids out of the kratom leaf and leaving all the plant material behind. There are different methods of extraction and different strengths of extracts. The extracts or alkaloids of the Kratom Leaf are what actually gives us the aroma Kratom gives us when burning. Without these alkaloids, Kratom would just be useless.

Enhanced Kratom is a very popular choice for Kratom enthusiasts. It gives us a way to have a more potent Kratom without having to buy very expensive extracts. The Leaping Leaf's enhanced Kratom is phenominal and comes in different strengths because we use different types of extracts. Our Ligthly enhanced Kratom utilizes a Resin extract while our boldly enhanced uses extract from a more advanced extraction process making the extract stronger and therefor making the enhanced Kratom stronger. You can't go wrong with any of The Leaping Leaf's enhanced Kratom!

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.
