Where it sits in the range. This is the second highest concentration we sell. Below it is Kanna Extract Powder 15% and above it is 24% Active Alkaloids. Against an everyday 5% powder this is four times the concentration, which means a scoop that is ordinary for those is far past where you want to be here. Re-measure rather than reusing habit. The full ladder is in Kanna Powder Extracts & Resins.
Alkaloid profile.
- Mesembrine: the bright, lifted, sociable side
- Mesembrenone: the calmer, more body-focused side
- Delta-7-mesembrenone: the quiet, even, settling end
- Mannitol base: gives a very small quantity of alkaloid enough bulk to sit on a spoon
Use methods.
- Sublingual: under the tongue until it dissolves, then swallow. Fastest and cleanest, and the route the 5 to 10 mg figure is written for.
- In a beverage: stir into a warm drink for a slower, smoother arrival.
Regular use. Stay inside the 5 to 10 mg window once you know your response. The same spoon level gives the same result every time. Wait until a serving has peaked and started to fade before considering more. Take days off, since tolerance builds with daily use and a short break restores your response better than a larger spoon.
Side effects. At this concentration there is little margin. Too much brings a queasy stomach, a headache, a jittery or over-alert feeling and a lost appetite. These are serving-driven and fade as the kanna clears. Drink water, rest, and reduce your next serving toward 5 mg rather than adding 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 combine with alcohol or other psychoactive substances
- 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 even a small spill is a lot of alkaloid
Storage. Sealed, cool, dry and dark. Mannitol draws moisture if the jar is left open, and clumped powder is harder to measure accurately.
Common questions
- Is 20% four times a 5% powder? In concentration, yes. That is why the serving drops to 5 to 10 mg and why the included spoons are sized for it.
- How long before it comes on? Generally 10 to 30 minutes, fastest sublingually.
- Is it a beginner extract? No. The label states experienced users, and a lower percentage powder is the right starting point.
- What is the difference between 20% and 24%? Concentration. The 24% is stronger again by weight, so its servings are smaller still.
- Where does the kanna come from? Sustainably grown Sceletium tortuosum in South Africa.

What is Kanna?
Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum) is an indigenous South African succulent plant with a rich ethnobotanical history as a natural mood booster and cognitive enhancer. Renowned for its unique ability to promote both deep relaxation and sharp mental clarity simultaneously, this potent botanical groundcover is fast becoming the go-to herbal alternative for modern stress management and flow-state support. Kanna works by directly interacting with the central nervous system through its rich profile of active, naturally occurring mesembrine alkaloids.
KANNA EXTRACT - A revolution
Kanna Extract is a new revolutionary type of botanical extract only possible with choice genetics and isolated alkaloids, standardized for a consistent extract. Highly refined- perfect for mixing, formulation or just enjoying in a cup of tea.
For centuries, indigenous communities like the San and Khoikhoi relied on this resilient succulent to sustain them through long, taxing journeys, using it to stave off physical fatigue and elevate their spirits. Today, this ancient botanical has transitioned from traditional campfires to modern wellness routines, prized for its unique ability to harmonize the mind.
At the heart of Kanna's appeal is its ability to foster a sense of calm without the accompanying heavy fog of drowsiness. By gently interacting with the brain's chemistry to support serotonin levels, the natural compounds found within the kanna plant acts as a natural buffer against modern stressors, helping to quiet a racing mind. Kanna invites a grounded, earthly state of emotional balance, making it a popular choice for those looking to connect further with themselves and their community.
Beyond sheer relaxation, Kanna offers a surprising paradox: it simultaneously sharpens mental clarity and hones concentration. Rather than sedating the user, it provides a clean, jitter-free surge of cognitive energy that helps keep distractions at bay during demanding tasks. This dual nature makes it an intriguing, plant-based ally for anyone seeking to navigate their day with both a calm heart and a highly focused mind.
