Sceletium Capsules 500g

Sceletium also known as “Kanna” or “Kougoed” is a succulent, ground-cover plant with a long history of use by the San and Khoikhoi people of South Africa. Today, the plant has strong global recognition for its ability to promote a sense of well-being by relieving stress with calming effects. Current research has focused on the commercialisation of the plant because of its treatment in clinical anxiety and depression, psychological and psychiatric disorders, improving mood, promoting relaxation and happiness.

Hunter gatherers and pastoralists use Sceletium Tortuosum for endurance when hunting. Traditionally, it enabled the San to endure long periods of activity without food or water and without suffering physical fatigue.

The increase in synaptic serotonin associated with Sceletium use brings about a relaxed, open-hearted and socially convivial state.

Mesembrenone, a key component in Sceletium, has strong pro-cognitive effects, such as long-term memory enhancement, mental clarity and anti-inflammation.

Kanna has significant benefits for those wishing to stop smoking. It not only significantly reduces the severity of nicotine withdrawal, but greatly alleviates the craving and desire to smoke. The greatest challenge to stopping smoking is compulsive and obsessive thinking about smoking. Many have found that Sceletium helps reduce the obsessive nature of these withdrawal symptoms.

For similar reasons, Sceletium serves as a treatment for alcoholism.

Aside from increasing melatonin levels as a consequence of enhanced serotonin function, Kanna is a profound - if not the most profound – relaxant for body and mind. This state of relaxation greatly supports sleeping well. Reports from Kanna users indicate enhanced sleep and better morning function. In modern endurance sports, Kanna is found to increase endurance, mitigate muscle cramps, and provide a gentle analgesic effect which allows athletes to safely extend their pain threshold.

One of Kanna’s greatest benefits is enhanced social interaction. At slightly higher doses, Sceletium induces open-hearted euphoria and easy conversation.Sceletium is useful for enabling ‘ice-breaking’ in social situations, without the use of alcohol or drugs.
