Learn About Kratom

A clear, honest introduction to kratom and kratom extracts — no hype, no medical claims, just the facts you need to buy confidently.

What Is Kratom?

Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia. Its leaves contain naturally occurring alkaloids — primarily mitragynine and, in smaller amounts, 7-hydroxymitragynine. Traditionally the leaves were chewed or brewed as tea; today most people prefer standardised extracts for consistency and convenience.

What Is a Kratom Extract?

An extract concentrates the leaf’s alkaloids, so a small shot, gel or capsule delivers what would otherwise require a large scoop of bitter powder. That’s why MIT45 products list precise mitragynine amounts — you always know exactly what you’re taking.

Choosing Your Format

Buying Kratom Safely

Only buy from vendors who publish third-party lab results, clearly state mitragynine content, and sell to adults 21+. Avoid anonymous powders with no COA. Every product in our shop is lab tested and clearly labelled. Start with a low serving and increase slowly, stay hydrated, and never mix with alcohol or other substances.
