I’ve been using it for a few years. I would highly recommend googling “Reddit vendors of Kratom” and starting there for a list of good approved vendors.

I use a mix of mainly red (for pain) and some greens for mood and pain. I would recommend starting really low dosing and using a scale to measure your dose (I use a scale with oblate papers for home and I make capsules for work because it’s cheaper to buy the powder and make my own capsules).

I take about 2-3 grams every 4 to 6 hours. I would recommend taking about 1 to 2 grams to start to see how it affects you. It has been a lifesaver for me. Drink plenty of water and don’t be surprised if Kratom causes you to be constipated. I would recommend against mixing Kratom with any other substances, like alcohol. It also can lower your seizure threshold, so if you’re prone to seizures I would maybe try it very slowly and be aware that seizures can happen.
