The liquid kratom, along with the other products that stem out from this plant, have awakened the curiousness of herbal fanatics and concerned organizations because of both positive and negative comments regarding its effects.

Kratum trees do not effectively survive in conditions unlike its typical habitat. They grow naturally in tropical settings that is why raising them in places with cold climates is not advised. Their height spans up to fifty feet and their width reaches up to fifteen feet. Though their body are said to be strong, people rely more on the derivatives of their leaves.

Fresh leaves are typically chewed by the locals who cultivate these plants. Since they are relatives of coffee, people take them because of their soothing and calming effects. Worn out men because of tedious work take kratoms more often than women.

Dried leaves of kratoms can also be packed and boiled to produce teas. This form is generally chosen by consumers because it gives lesser emphasis on the bitter taste of fresh leaves. The leafy parts are also boiled and evaporated accordingly for juice extraction. Capsule forms have also recently entered the market and have grown its own reputation.

Advocates of krathom use advise this herb for those who are suffering from opioid withdrawal and those who are undergoing opioid detoxification.

Though it provides a minimal possibility of dependence, to protect the people from abusing the herb, governments in Asia have restricted the propagation and marketing of krathoms.
