Indonesian Origins
As we mentioned earlier, the origins of the Red Bali strain are a source of conflict. An article ran on our Website says that the name comes from the fact that Bali is synonymous with serenity, peace, and tranquility.
Today, the strain grows across Indonesia and parts of Malaysia. Farmers select fertile soil plots to ensure high-quality yields at a low cost.
The Kratom Tree
The Red Bali strain comes from mature leaves of the Mitragyna speciosa plant. Humans have used the leaves of this Southeast Asian plant for their medicinal attributes for many centuries. Different consumption methods include chewing the leaves, brewing them into a tea, grinding them into powder, or smoking them. The variety of consumption methods available is one reason why Red Bali kratom and other strains have become quite popular in recent times.
Alkaloid Levels
Alkaloids are nitrogenous compounds present in kratom. These compounds bind to receptors in the brain and induce physiological effects. Depending on the strain, kratom can contain 40 alkaloids, each with its wellness benefits.
The region, soil composition, and harvest timing play a significant role in the kratom plant’s alkaloid composition. For example, Indonesians claim that kratom strains cultivated in the JongKong region (a region known for Red Bali kratom) are more potent than strains grown in the other areas. Additionally, the intense drying process ensures that Red Bali’s alkaloids have plenty of time to mature and develop their potency.
Harvesting Process
The harvesting process is similar to other strains. Once the veins and stem of the leaves turn red (this signifies maturity), they are plucked and dried under sunlight. More sophisticated farmers use UV lamps to dry the leaves. Depending on the end product (powder, extract, or capsule), the leaves can also be fermented.
What is kratom used for?
Kratom has a vast spectrum of uses.
When consumed in low doses, kratom acts as a stimulant and can produce powerful cognitive benefits, just like coffee and the coca leaf!
Small amounts provide feelings of euphoria and promote mental and physical energy.
However, the larger the amount, the more the effects change. It goes from stimulating to sedating, but bigger doses also provide potent analgesic and anti-anxiety benefits.
Kratom can help with the following, but the effects depend on how much you take:
– Boosts energy and focus
– Reduces pain
– Provides euphoric feelings
– Helps with anxiety and depression
– Induces sleep
– Effective weight-loss supplement
– Alleviates withdrawal symptoms
Red Bali Kratom Dosage
To get the best out of the Red Bali strain, you need to get the dosage right. The correct dosage often depends on a variety of factors such as:
– Your age
– Weight
– Fitness levels
– Body metabolism
– And tolerance to kratom
Something to note down with kratom, taking a higher dose doesn’t mean you experience an intense form of the effects you got at low doses. At higher doses, you experience entirely different outcomes.
In general, here are the effects you’ll experience at different dosage levels:
– Low doses (2–4 grams): Mood boost and mild energy
– Moderate doses (4–6 grams): Mild pain relief and calming effects
– High doses (8–10 grams): Chronic pain relief and sedative effects
For those new to Red Bali kratom, you probably should start with 0.5–2 grams. At those levels, your body can gradually adjust to the effects of this potent strain. As your body adapts, you can increase your dosage by 1 gram, depending on the effects you need. Most experienced users say 4–6 grams is the dosage level; you don’t experience any side effects.
If you are dealing with chronic pain or sleep disorders, 12 grams might be the magic number. However, on no account should you take more than 12 grams of the Red Bali strain. Anything above this dosage level may lead to side effects such as anxiety, breathlessness, vomiting, and nausea.
The Red Bali strain is safe and highly effective for both first-timers and experts at the correct doses.
