High Mesembrenone Kanna Extract Powder V3 (Sceletium tortuosum)

Kanna Extract Powder High Mesembrenone V3 (Melt)

Warm, Huggy, and Lovey

Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum) is a succulent plant native to South Africa with a long history of traditional use. This extract contains the same alkaloids found in fermented kanna.

VU3 Kanna Extract Powder is a refined powdered extract of kanna (Sceletium tortuosum / expansum), prepared on a mannitol substrate and standardized for consistency. Packaged in a glass container with a measuring scoop & desiccant.

Serving: 5mg–15mg sublingual. Double the serving if used in a drink or capsule. A 5mg/15mg measuring spoon is provided with each purchase.

V3 Profile: V3 is a balanced alkaloid expression, more relaxing than stimulating. It is a broad-spectrum product with higher mesembrenone content. We personally find this to be a melty, more body-focused experience.

Total Alkaloids: ±5%

Primary Alkaloids:

• Mesembrine: 45–55%
• Mesembrenone: 20–30%
• ∆7-Mesembrenone: 15–25%

At a glance

• Broad-spectrum kanna extract, approximately 5% total alkaloids
• Raised mesembrenone share, the calm and body-focused end of kanna
• On a mannitol substrate, in a glass jar with scoop and desiccant
• Sublingual serving 5 to 15 mg, doubled in a drink or capsule
• The extract behind our MELT spray
• Adults 21 and over

What the profile means. Every kanna extract is defined by the ratio between its alkaloids rather than by strength alone. Mesembrine is the bright and sociable one; mesembrenone and delta-7-mesembrenone are the calmer, more body-focused ones. V3 keeps mesembrine as the largest single alkaloid but lifts the other two well above where a mesembrine-forward extract puts them, and that is the whole reason it reads warm and melty instead of lifted.

Use methods.

• Sublingual: under the tongue until it dissolves, then swallow. Fastest and cleanest, and the serving the label is written for.
• In a drink: stir into a warm beverage. Slower and smoother, and the serving doubles.
• Capsule: same as a drink, slower onset, doubled serving.

Regular use. Find your level in the 5 to 15 mg sublingual window and stay there. The same spoon level gives the same result each time. Take days off, since tolerance builds with daily use and a short break restores your response better than a bigger scoop.

How it compares. V3 is the calm end of our powder range. GLOW MZQ at 5.5% and BLOOM MT5 at approximately 5% are the bright, mesembrine-dominant powders. XK6 AMBITION pushes delta-7-mesembrenone higher again. The rest are in Kanna Powder Extracts & Resins, and the spray version is MELT.

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

Storage. Keep the desiccant in the jar, sealed, in a cool dry dark place. Mannitol draws moisture and clumped powder is harder to scoop accurately.

Common questions

• Why is the serving doubled in a drink? Swallowed kanna goes through digestion, so less reaches you than from under the tongue. The label accounts for that.
• Is V3 weaker than your mesembrine powders? No, it is the same approximate 5% total alkaloids. It reads differently because of the ratio, not the strength.
• What does VU3 mean on the jar? It is our internal batch designation for this extract. V3 and VU3 refer to the same product.
• Is this the extract in the MELT spray? Yes. The spray is built on this powder.
