Kanna Shredded 20 gram / 100 gram

Kanna used to be used a lot by warriors. Because of the many fights they suffered from a lot of stress, anxiety and depression. Kanna was used to alleviate these problems or make them disappear.

Kanna can be used in many ways. One of the ways is to make tea of it. It can also be snorted, smoked or chewed. When you use it as a snuff, the effects will occur quickly. When you chew or drink it, you will feel the effect of Kanna quietly. Be aware to use the right dosage. For example, do not use the dosage you normally use for tea to snuff.

Use and effect

Kanna as tea

The dosage for making tea with Kanna is between 200-500 mg per cup of tea. You can experiment up to 2 grams. Please note that a strong dosage can lead to nausea, visual effects and dizziness. Kanna tea can be drunk on an empty stomach for better absorption. The tea gives you a relaxing and soothing feeling. It takes about an hour and a half before you feel the Kanna, but the effect can last for several hours.

Smoke Kanna

The dosage for smoking Kanna is between 50-500mg. The usual average is 100-250mg. Compared to the tea, smoking Kanna has a faster effect on you. Within an hour you will feel a little stoned and 'trippy'. Please note that when you combine Kanna with cannabis or alcohol, the effect of the cannabis and alcohol intensifies. Kanna can also be smoked together with other herbs such as, damiana, blue lotus, wild dagga, tongat ali and ginseng.

Chewing Kanna

The dosage for chewing Kanna is between 50-150 mg for a mild effect and 200-400 mg for an average effect. You can wrap Kanna in chewing gum and chew on it.

Kanna Snorting

Not the shredded, but the powdered Kanna can be snorted. Usual is to use between 50-150 mg, but the effect is already felt with 20 mg. By sniffing Kanna you will feel a euphoric feeling within a few minutes which can last for more than an hour. After that the effect will change to a calming effect.

It is possible that some people don't feel the effect the first time, but feel it the other times. This is also called priming: By using it several days in a row you build up the effect of the Kanna.
