Because kratom strains can have wildly different effects, choosing the one that is strongest really depends on what the intended purpose is. In this blog post, we’ll look at some of the common uses of kratom and discuss which strains are commonly considered to be the strongest for that use. It is also important to note that how a person responds to a given strain depends a lot on their individual body chemistry, so these should be considered starting points that apply to most people and not necessarily definitive answers.
Anxiety
The best kratom strains for anxiety relief will combine a euphoric effect with a sedative effect. This combination will calm you down while also picking up your mood. The red-veined leaves are best suited to provide a sedation effect. What we want in choosing a strain for anxiety is to mix that with a strain that is not only also good at providing a euphoric effect but at effectively blending the two. Red Borneo kratom is considered one of the best strains for this purpose. Red Bali or red Maeng Da are also good second choices.
Energy
One of the most well-known uses for kratom is as a stimulant similar to coffee. For this purpose, the white-vein kratom strains are going to be the most suited since the other colors are known more for either a sedative effect or for a mix of the two. Among the various regions from which white-veined kratom is available, the white Hulu or white Maeng Da are generally regarded as the most potent for their stimulant properties. These have higher concentrations of the stimulating alkaloid mitragynine. For stimulating effects, lower doses are recommended.
