Herbals: Extreme Thai Kratom

Hello friends!

Yes, another review this weekend. Our friends at Best Kratom USA graced us with several products, and we have chosen to spend this weekend enjoying them and letting you know how they handle.

Today's review is of Extreme Thai Kratom, a new product from BKU. Hopefully a successful addition to the growing selection offered by this provider... and a possible alternative to other Kratoms that are provided, since different types and strains affect different people... differently!

Anyway, we were provided with only 2g of product, so just one person could try it. I had my reservations as to whether it would even be enough to notice any effects. Usually, I take 4-7g of product, because my focus is mostly on pain relief and getting a bit of a heady experience out of the deal, so 2g seemed like a minor dose. However, I went forward with the experience because I figured it would be good to learn if such a small dose would help with general anxiety, energy boosts, and taking the edge off of pain.

For such a small dose, it still took a good 40 minutes to kick in. I'm learning that this just might be the standard for these plant powders. Makes some sense, since you still have to break down the plant components to get to the good stuff inside. Can't really complain though, because when a product works, it works. This one did.
The effects of this Thai variety seemed to be subtle, yet enduring. Over the course of several hours, I felt various effects. At first, it was just a general muscle relaxation and mood enhancement, which was pleasant and enjoyable. It slowly began to work on my body pain after that. It did not wipe it out completely, but its effects on the pain plus the mood enhancement made it so that by this point, I didn't care much that I was still sore.
A little while longer, and I felt particularly limber and energized. I found myself working on a project that I have had a hard time motivating myself to concentrate on with decent ease. Stretching was gratifying, and my legs felt loose and like I could go for a run if I wanted to. All these feelings were very welcome and easily enjoyed, and I would suspect most people would embrace them much like I did.
After several hours, I felt the body temperature rise that I'm used to feeling with most Kratom strains. It was not as intense or hot as I have experienced in the past, so it was not entirely unpleasant. I did feel the effects of not drinking enough water though, and struggled to balance between enjoyment and a headache. I had forgotten one of the cardinal rules of using Kratom. DRINK LOTS OF WATER!
Overall, it was a good experience.

One downside that I have found after this weekend is that I had a backlash type of response from my muscles. After all the effects have worn off, I find myself with worse tension and pain in my shoulder than I did when I started. It could be unrelated, but I would think that if you're going to take this for the relaxation and pain relief properties, you would want to have more than just one or two doses on hand. I know I wish I did!

Anyway, I enjoyed this kratom, and was impressed at its performance with only 2g. I will give it 7.5 out of 10 nods.

Pros:
Gently increasing, solid effects
Sense of well-being and flexibility
Easily enjoyed
Small amount needed to enjoy

Cons:
Strain of plant is unknown

Herbals: Kava and Golden Reserve Kratom

Hello friends!

It's been a while again, and we are so happy that you are still here with us to share in our experiences.

Today we are reviewing another set of products from our friends at Best Kratom USA. This time around, they have supplied us, generously, with several samples of products. They have recently added to their product line and are continuing to work on expanding their availability and operations while striving to provide good prices and great deals for their loyal customers. We are happy to be in contact with them.

After some quick conversations, they dropped these samples in the mail and they got to us quickly. They have confirmed that they find shipping to be a priority for their customers, and we're here to say that our experiences support this fact.

Anyway, on to the products. First up, Kava and Golden Reserve Kratom. Downside? I cannot tell you what strains their products are, which is something that I struggle with. However, this doesn't mean that one cannot enjoy the product.
After some consideration, I started off with the Kava leaf. Known to be a milder supplement, Kava is a relaxation enhancer. Since it has a milder effect, I started with it on an empty stomach and with no other substances active in my system. To be honest, I didn't have many expectations... I didn't even really think I would notice any effect, because I only had 2g of herb to work with. As you may know from previous posts, I'm a bigger person, and often need larger doses. However, the hope was that the Kava would have at least a mild calming effect. The point was to take the edge off the work week and start a good relaxation for the evening.
After about 20 minutes, I re-evaluated the way that I felt. The biggest difference with this product over others, such as Kratom, is that it does not have a significant impact. That is, there is no real moment where you notice the "profound" effects. Rather, it is a gentler, smoother transition to an enhanced tranquility. It does not erase all anxiety or pain, but it does take the edge off. I would say that the supplement would probably do well for people with lower tolerances or those that need a little help relaxing for bedtime. This would not be my first choice for a regular anxiety supplement or recreational relaxation.
One thing that is very common with Kava is that it is often combined with other leafs and plant parts in products, most likely because it does provide this gentle relaxation. The state it creates paves a way for the better enjoyment of other items.
It is this enhancement that led me to add Golden Reserve Kratom.
The strain of Kratom in this product is not known at this time, so it could be a blend or a pure strain. What I can say is that it was an effective and enjoyable Kratom experience. After sitting on the Kava experience for about an hour and a half, I took 2g of Golden Reserve. After about 40 minutes, I felt the Kratom kicking in, and pleasantly so. The combination of the two products definitely seemed to be a good combination, and made it so that the smaller dosage of Kratom worked quite well for me.
This Golden Reserve did a decent job relaxing me and resolving the majority of my chronic pain. It did not give me the expected increase to my body temperature, nor did it mess with my ability to keep my thoughts focused, which are both things that can happen when taking Kratom.

Overall, I would say that this was a good experience. I would recommend trying Kava and seeing how it works for you. Since it is a cheaper supplement, it could be a better alternative for people looking for help with relaxation and aren't looking for a heady experience. Golden Reserve from Best Kratom USA is a decent product, and pairs very well with Kava. I suspect that it would also pair well with other Kratom products and other relaxation products. I would guess that if one were to combine this with Couchlock, it would be one fantastically "melty" evening.

I give this experience 7 out of 10 nods. A solid performance.

Pros:
Quick release and noticeable relaxation
Timely delivery from supplier
Pain relief
Anxiety calming

Cons:
Kava may be a little too mild for experienced users
Strains of plants are not known.
