Full Spectrum Kanna- My Experience So Far
Original post in this thread

Just got the new kanna extract on Saturday. Been wanting to try kanna and this was a perfect opportunity to try.
On Saturday ( first day trying ) I put 25mg under my tongue until it dissolved. In less than 3 mins I had a sharp increase in adrenaline feeling and a full body tingling sensation. But after that, nothing really noticeable at all.
Today, my second day of trying I did 25mg sublingually and then another 25mg about 25 mins later. After the second 25mg dose I felt yet again another strong tingling sensation and warm feeling. Super interesting never felt that before.
Both of these warm, adrenaline spike, tingling sensations only lasted about 30 seconds and was interesting to say the least. Caught me by surprise, very stimulating.
But overall, not much of a mood boost or anti anxiety effects that I’ve felt so far. I know it’s only two days in. But I just felt like sharing my experience.
I have seen some stuff on “priming” for kanna to feel the mental effects and not just the physical. Is this recommended ? (Small doses over a few days until you feel effects)

Damn, I was hyped on this supplement too. There’s quite a number of companies that speak fondly of this plant

Don't let the hype, positive or negative, affect your objective assessment of how a supplement affects you. It can be difficult, but reading Advisorhead's review and then going out and thinking kanna will change your life is just as ill advised as reading this review and thinking it won't work for anyone. I have said it for a decade now: everyone is different. What works for someone else might do nothing for you, or actually make things worse for you. The only way to know how you will react to something is to bioassay it yourself. Try not to get over-hyped for things, but also try not to write things off without actually trying. I wrote GABA off for years because of shit I read about it on Reddit. Now I take it every day. I feel stupid for just never trying it because of shit I read, but we are all susceptible to letting what we read influence us.
