Sceletium, also known as Kanna or Kougoed, is a succulent plant native to southern Africa that has been traditionally utilized by the Khoi-San Bushmen for centuries. Unlike common stimulants Sceletium offers a unique mechanism of action, enhancing mood, endurance, sensory perception, focus, and cognitive performance without the negative side effects of elevated cortisol levels and increased stress.

 

Our 10% active alkaloid Sceletium Extract is manufactured in an FDA and GMP approved facility, with rigorous 3rd party testing to ensure consistent quality and safety. This extract has a particularly high mesembrine content, making it a highly stimulating option that is well-suited for workouts, periods of intense focus, and boosting energy levels.

 

Dosage 5mg-15mg

 

5mg/15mg dosage spoon provided with all purchases 

 

 

The alkaloid profile of our 10% active alkaloid extract is as follows:

  • Total alkaloid content: 10% by weight
  • Mesembrine: 80% (a stimulating alkaloid that primarily acts on serotonin and dopamine)
  • Mesembrenone: 10% (a calming alkaloid that primarily inhibits serotonin reuptake)
  • Delta-7-Mesembrenone: 10% (another calming alkaloid that inhibits serotonin reuptake)

For first-time users of this concentrated extract, we recommend starting with a dose of 20 mg or less, as the effects can be quite noticeable even at lower amounts. As you become more accustomed to Sceletium, the dosage can be gradually

 

 

To make dosing more convenient, we provide a customized measuring spoon with a small end that measures 5 mg and a larger end that measures 15 mg. This allows you to easily dial in the right amount for your needs, whether you require a smaller, more subtle dose or a larger, more stimulating one.

 

The unique properties of Sceletium make it a valuable tool for those seeking a natural, sustained boost in energy, focus, and cognitive performance without the negative impact on stress hormones that is often seen with traditional stimulants. By supporting mental clarity and acuity while also promoting overall well-being, Sceletium presents a distinct advantage for individuals striving to optimize their health, productivity, and mental capabilities.

 

However, it is important to note that caution is advised when using Sceletium in conjunction with certain medications, particularly selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs). Combining Sceletium with full doses of these drugs can potentially lead to a condition called serotonin syndrome, which can be serious. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before using Sceletium, especially if you have any existing medical conditions or are taking any medications.

 

In conclusion, our 10% active alkaloid Sceletium Extract offers a unique and compelling option for those seeking to enhance their cognitive and physical performance without the drawbacks associated with traditional stimulants. With its carefully crafted alkaloid profile, convenient dosing tools, and potential benefits for overall well-being, Sceletium presents an intriguing natural alternative worth exploring under the guidance of a qualified healthcare provider.

History of Kanna

This revered herb, indigenous to South Africa, has played a
significant role in the lives of the local people, particularly the
Khoikhoi and the San tribes, since prehistoric times. These tribes,
initially hunter-gatherers, used Kanna for various purposes including
relief from thirst and hunger, to combat fatigue, and for social and
spiritual purposes. They had a profound connection with the plant,
associating it with the sacred eland antelope and referring to it by the
same name: 'kanna'​​.

The first isolation of an alkaloid from Sceletium tortuosum was in 1898 by
Meiring, who called it mesembrine. This discovery led to a deeper
understanding of the plant's chemical composition, though its exact
composition remains elusive​​.

Kanna's long-standing history
reflects its significance in South African culture and its evolving role
in global herbal medicine and recreational use. From its traditional
roots to modern applications, Kanna has remained a plant of great
interest and value.
