As with anything, even the healthy organic things like Kratom. If you take too much of something, it might become a bad thing. Kratom Risks are no exception. Therefore, lets not avoid this discussion. Let us go over the commonsense risks when taking too much kratom, or, when taking kratom when your body isn’t in support of it. Let us start with important kratom risks facts.
Common Facts About Kratom Risks
Kratom Isn’t For Everyone
Your body might not like kratom. Your body might be allergic to kratom. It might reject it for various reasons. Your heart might not be able to handle kratom risks or side effects etc.
Taking Too Much Of Kratom Can Cause A Reaction
Just like taking too much coffee causes the jitters, too much kratom can cause the “wobbles”. Your head might start spinning and you might get a migraine/headache. You might even throw up. That is your body doing it’s job by extracting kratom from your system because you simply cannot handle it or you took too much.
Kratom Might Not Work
This can be the case for many reasons, but the common reasons are, You didn’t take enough or You have things in your system conflicting with it. Kratom works on alkaloids. When you have other things in your system working on them, they become numb or over used (in a sense). Things that can cause this are anti-nervousness meds. Now let us talk about the commonsense risks involved when consuming/drinking/dosing with kratom.
Common Risks Of Kratom
- You might have a tainted batch from a vendor who does not test their kratom. It might be contaminated with metals and other gross stuff.
- Your body might show a side effect after taking it. Reported side effects include: Nausea, itching, sweating, dry mouth, constipation, diarrhea, increased urination, loss of appetite, feelings of agitation, irritability or uneasiness; drowsiness, abnormally fast heartbeat, loss of muscle coordination in arms and legs, hallucinations, seizures and/or liver damage. If you notice, these are all possible side effects to drinking alcohol (which is fully legal in America btw). Have you ever watched a prescription commercial? Do you hear them list possible side effects? Death being a common one? Makes you think doesn’t it? FDA approved prescriptions, fully admitting that “death” MIGHT be a side effect…….. Yeah.
- Your body might react with a withdrawal when not taking kratom for a bit. This is again common with most things. Stop eating sugar and tell me how you feel by the third day. That withdrawal is known to be one of the worst types.
- Kratom might interact badly with prescriptions you are on, so yes, definitely check online for any written articles about your prescription and kratom (it might be out there) or check with your doctor (but be prepared for an automatic, “STOP KRATOM NOW!” considering kratom is a controversial, non FDA approved supplement, regardless if it is harmless and safer than Tylenol).
