Where it sits in the range. This is the middle rung of our high-potency ladder. Below it are the everyday powders, MELLOW FS3 at 4.5% and GLOW MZQ at 5.5%. Above it are Kanna Extract Powder 15%, 20% and 24%. At 8.6% a scoop that would be ordinary for a 5% powder is already well past where you want to be, so re-measure rather than reusing habit. The full lineup is in Kanna Powder Extracts & Resins.

Alkaloid profile.

• Mesembrine, around 80%: the bright, lifted, sociable lead, and the dominant character here
• Mesembrenone, around 10%: calmer and more body-focused
• Delta-7-mesembrenone, around 10%: the quieter, settling end of the profile

Use methods.

• Sublingual: under the tongue until it dissolves, then swallow. Fastest and cleanest.
• In a drink: stir into a warm beverage for a slower, smoother arrival.
• Capsule: convenient, slowest onset.

Regular use. Once you know your response, stay at that spoon level. Tolerance builds with daily use, and a short break restores your response better than a larger portion. Wait for a serving to peak and fade before considering more.

Interactions and cautions.

• Do not combine with SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs or other serotonergic medications, including triptans, tramadol and St. John's Wort, because of the risk of serotonin syndrome
• Do not use with alcohol
• Not for use during pregnancy or nursing, or by anyone with a heart condition
• For adults 21 and over; keep out of reach of children, since a small spill is a lot of alkaloid

Storage. Sealed, cool, dry and dark. Extract powder draws moisture from the air and clumped powder is harder to measure accurately.

Common questions

• Why does the percentage say roughly? Kanna is a plant and batches land slightly differently. We state the figure the batch is built around rather than an exact number.
• Is this a beginner extract? No. At 8.6% the margin between a small serving and too much is narrow. Start with a lower-percentage powder if kanna is new to you.
• How does it compare to the 15% extract? The 15% is nearly twice as concentrated, so its servings are smaller again. This one is the step before it.
• What does the included spoon measure? It is a dual-ended 5mg and 15mg spoon, which matches the suggested range on the label.
