Vaporizers or vapes are all the rage now. It’s considered one of the best ways to quit cigarette smoking for good without experiencing serious withdrawal symptoms. Moreover, vaping is easier, relatively safer and more convenient. People use vapes with vape juices of their choice containing substances like Cannabidiol (CBD) and nicotine. That said, we came to know that people are wondering whether there is any way to vape Kratom.
This article will shed some light on the matter.
Understanding vaping
Vapes or electronic cigarettes are battery-powered devices that can heat up substances into vapor which the user can then inhale. There are many types of vapes available now but they all work pretty much the same way. Unlike cigarettes which are burned with a flame, vapes only heat up the vape juice which in turn comes in various strengths and flavors. Vape juices may contain water, food flavorings, nicotine, CBD and other ingredients. One can also vape cannabis concentrates and wax using herb vapes.
Is Kratom one of those things you can vape?
The simple answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT!
Kratom, as of now, cannot be vaped as there simply is no vaping device available designed specifically for kratom. There are no vape juices that contain kratom as well. We have heard of people experimenting with kratom by preparing a homemade kratom vape juice. That’s a very dangerous activity you should steer clear of, as it can have serious health consequences.
At KC Smokz, we believe in offering only safe and tested kratom products to our customers. And we believe that’s what kratom vendors are focused on as well. This could be why we don’t have kratom-specific vape devices or juices. Because kratom is more effective and enjoyable when consumed in other ways. It won’t be possible to keep the alkaloids in kratom active in the form of a vape juice which will be heated up by the device. Heating can often neutralize the alkaloids in kratom. At present, tests have only been performed on ingesting kratom and not inhaling it as vapor. Eating or applying oil are by far the only safest, tried and tested methods of experiencing what kratom truly offers. There are scientific studies that researched the effects of kratom once it enters the bloodstream through our digestive system. Vaping doesn’t work the same way.
In short, there is currently no clear answer whether vaping kratom is safe or not. We believe it is not at all safe to vape homemade kratom juices and highly recommend our customers to avoid it. It’s best to stick to the traditional ways of using kratom.
Groups like the American Kratom Association aim to protect consumers of kratom. So we are sure research on kratom vaping is already being done. For now, the Kratom usage guidelines from said associations recommend avoiding kratom vapes in any form.
