  • White Vein Kratom

The name is often derived from the color of the vein from which it is extracted. As you can guess, this difference in color also translates to a difference in the composition of the leaves and ultimately their effects.

White vein Kratom is commonly used as a stimulant and mood enhancer. This is why most people use it as an alternative to coffee for concentration, alertness, and cheerfulness. However, it has sedative and analgesic effects at high dosages. It also enhances a strong positive focus characterized by full cognitive enhancement.
