Kanna extract
Original post in this thread

So I decided to try Kanna again after a bad experience with it in the past.
I’m not taking anything now besides omega3 and multivitamins for the last 3 weeks and got bored.
Figured let’s try it again and wow.
My mood is up I’m a lot more sociable and that feeling of wellbeing generally is great.
The question is:
Is it ok to take every day?
Should I cycle it? If yes, what is the upper limit of taking it in a row?
It feels so good that’s a little frightening 😆

Generally good to cycle everything for feeling effects, but I don't believe there are any health concerns if you don't.
Also don't believe there is an upper limit. I've taken quite a bit and even added over time, but the side effects seem to be typical of serotonin-ish supplements if you overdo it. Lethargy, maybe the runs or a stomachache depending on what you've eaten/other supplements, minor headache and desire to lie down, etc. Don't think you can reach peak first dose effects again by adding another dose. Just need to wait for it to wear off completely.
I just cycle it by not taking on my work days. Chill out on off days.
I think MYASD had an experience where he accidentally mega-dosed. Not a big deal if you are self-aware of how that might affect your mental state. E.g. increased heart rate, slight anxiety, etc.

I megadosed Semax waaaay back in the day, before anyone had access to anything other than the Russian drop version. Remember, back then the only Semax on the market were the 0.1% and 1% solutions, with Cyrillic writing on them. All the dosing was listed in drop of the solution, not in mg, and all the studies were in Russian. I used a translator to get the dosing info, but made a miscalculation on the decimal point. This resulted in me taking 24mg of Semax intranasally. It was interesting, but I am still here!
