Thai Commercial Leaves, Mitragyna speciosa
Legal plantation grown Thai Kratom. Thai Kratom is reported to be more energizing then "Bali" Kratom but less euphoric. We offer the only LEGAL Thai Kratom available, Kratom is highly illegal in Thailand and for this reason we recommend only buying from legal Thai Kratom producers or retailers.
Over 25 alkaloids have been isolated from Kratom. The most abundant alkaloids consist of three indoles and two oxindoles. The three indoles are mitragynine, paynanthine, and speciogynine the first two of which appear to be unique to this species Mitragyna speciosa. The two oxindoles are mitraphylline and speciofoline. Other alkaloids present include other indoles, and oxindoles such as ajmalicine, corynanthedine, mitraversine, rhychophylline, and stipulatine.
The alkaloid content of Kratom, Mitragyna speciosa leaves is about 0.5%, about half of which is mitragynine. An average leaf weighs about 1.7 grams fresh or 0.43 grams dried. Twenty leaves contain approximately 17mg of mitragynine. All leaves appear to contain mitragynine, speciogynine, paynanthine, and small quantities of speciociliatine. Oxindole alkaloids usually occur only in small or trace amounts.
Kratom alkaloid content varies from place to place and at different times. Within each location, there is a quantitative variation in alkaloid content from month to month. While indole content seems to be fairly stable, oxindole content shows tremendous variation.
