    Kratom Extract 15X Reviewed

    There are many guys out there who are talking about Kratom 15x and its unbelievably safe results. So I decided to go ahead and write a report for Kratom 15x, as I have read so many guys claiming it to be a legal herb all over the US. I have recently been trying all sorts of these legal herbal incenses like Afghan Hash, Buzz incense, Wild Dagga, Salvia Divinorum, etc. Thus far, the only ones that have had any effect on me are Salvia, Afghan Hash and Buzz Incense. The others have moreover annoyingly mild effects, or completely dummy.

    The reviews I have read about this herb is that this herb has strong effects and almost allergic free for everyone. I ordered 3 grams kratom 15x from an online store. One gram 15x extracts means that it has same effects like 15 grams of original kratom leaves so I thought it should be strong enough to make me happy as I am regular smoker and tried so many strong herbs lately. So here we go with the report.

    Dose:

    I took 2 grams of kratom 15x extract with my lemon tea because I have read that this is the best way to have kratom effects.  Overall taste is not that much annoying but still I can taste something different as compared to regular lemon Tea.

    Trip Report:

    T+00:02 after having 2 grams of Kratom 15x extracts now I am waiting for it to kick in and show me some good results. I have read about this on some review site that it will take some time about 10-15 minutes to show its results so I am waiting.

    T+00:18 awesome relaxing effects. As I am typing I can feel the energy burst in my fingers and I am enjoying my work.

    T+00:28 this is exactly 10 minutes from the last entry I made but it seems that it is coming really fast. I am feeling extremely awesome and I can feel the absolute energy coming out from deep inside my body. The effect is very different from other herbs and I can feel really fresh and energetic. Colors are looking very flashy and I am enjoying the music like anything. I must be honest with this but for the long time I wasn’t interested in trying Kratom at all but it is very Interesting, not the kind of ‘trip’ but I find it useful. We’ll find out how long it will go. Come on Kratom, GIMME WHAT YA GOT!

    T+00:55 I forget to mention that I am a skinny guy and my diet is not very good so I got nauseated from different narcotics but I am not feeling any nausea from Kratom at this point of time. Feeling like in paradise.

    T+01:55 I am getting impatient because I got bored with this dazed feeling so I took 1 more gram of Kratom 15x with apple juice. I want to get maximum effects from this which I am actually getting at this point of time but want to know how far it will go or is there any disadvantage or bad feeling with Kratom 15x.

    T+02:45 doing some home cleaning stuff with some good trance music and I am really enjoying every moment of this. Looking forward to get some sleep after that.

    T+03:25 Laid down for a bit and listened to some atmospheric drum & bass. I definitely got the ‘in between rousing and dreaming effects. All kinds of crazy stuff going on. Thoughts seemed to blend into dream state and vice versa… Wasn’t sleeping, wasn’t conscious, somewhere in the middle of the road.

    Conclusion:

    I think when I use Kratom in future, I will make a point to simply take it, put on some good trance music, and set down on my couch because that is where the interesting stuff happens. This not something I feel a carving to do very frequently but it is powerful and that is for sure, so be careful new bees.

    What are Synthetic Cannabinoids?

    Herbal blends, which are highly popular alternatives to illegal substances, are made of natural botanicals and often contain synthetic cannabinoids.  When comparing marijuana with an herbal blend product, one will find that cannabis contains THC, which is a natural cannabinoid, while the legal counterpart does not. Because herbal blends contain synthetic cannabinoids, they are legal in various states in the US as well as other countries.

    Synthetic cannabinoids are not the same active compound as natural THC and do not have the same chemical structure.  Natural THC actually breaks down in a different way compared to synthetic cannabinoids.  The most common of these synthetic cannabinoids are cannabicyclohexanol, JWH-018, JWH-073, and HU-210.

    JWH-018 is considered to be the most popular one, which is used in the vast majority of legal herbal blends being sold on the market in the United States, Europe and Canada.  Although synthetic cannabinoids are considered legal in various locations, a number of states in the US and countries across the globe are beginning to ban or regulate the sale, possession and consumption of herbal blends.

    The Discovery of JWH-018

    JWH-018 is an analogue of synthetic cannabinoids and was founded by John W. Huffman, an organic chemist from Clemson University.  As mentioned above, JWH-018 is the most widely recognized form of synthetic cannabinoids and is used as an ingredient in legal herbal blends. The molecular structure of JWH-018 is unique and the active ingredient produces effects on the body that are similar to the effects of cannabis.  For this reason, herbal blends that contain JWH-018 are used as legal alternatives to cannabis.

    The Breakdown of Synthetic Cannabinoids

    Every herbal blend produces different effects on the body that vary from one individual to another.  The reason is because of the synthetic cannabinoid, which causes our bodies to react in different ways.  The body has two cannabinoid receptors called CB1 and CB2.  These receptors are found in different parts of the body.  CB1 is found in the brain while CB2 is found in other parts such as bone marrow.  Synthetic cannabinoids work differently with these receptors, but they have an affinity to both CB1 and CB2.

    When comparing the synthetic compounds with natural THC, one will find that THC is a partial agonist to CB1 receptors while synthetic cannabinoids are full agonists.  This means that synthetic cannabinoids can potentially produce stronger effects than THC does.  Those who use legal herbal blends often find that these products are much stronger than cannabis and produce longer-lasting effects.  In fact, the affinity of JWH-018 is 5 times greater than the affinity of THC.  Not only do these synthetic cannabinoids have an effect on the body, but they can also have an effect on the mind.

    Precautionary measures must be taken before using synthetic cannabinoid products.  Although these herbal blends are legal in many places, an increasing number of states and countries are regulating the products if not banning them entirely.  It is important to be familiar with these regulations and to only use products that are safe.

    Herbal Incense blends like Afghan Incense (Hemp Flavor) are great and get people hooked.  First off, what other product, compared to Afghan Incense, smells so good and feels like the real deal? You get the best of both worlds with this smoking blend. What sets Afghan Incense apart from other herbal blends is that it not only makes you feel good but it can cause visual distortions like it did for me.  The only other product I can think of that altars your visual experience is Salvia and that may be too strong for some people.

    Afghan Herbal Incense is strong enough, it is aromatic and feels like the real thing.  To provide a thorough review of this blend, let’s first look at the ingredients that make up the product.  The herbs used include: Betula Utilis, Lactuca sativa, Myroxylon balsamum, Laurus nobilis, Abies balsamea, Agropyron repens, and Syzygium aromaticum.  The blend also has powerful flavorings, which give off a strong aroma, as well as resins, which are solids.

    This smoking blend looks like Hashish and smells like it too.  The herbs are dried up and made into the incense.  It is said that the blend is made according to an ancient recipe from Afghanistan.  After using various other herbal products, it appears that Afghan Incense is at the top of the list of most powerful blends.  To use the blend, you must break open the contents first.  You can then fill a small container with the content and let the natural fragrance take over the room.  Or, you can add the mixture into your favorite tobacco product and smoke it, which is what most people are now doing.

    Afghan Herbal Incense provides a tranquilizing experience, leaving you feeling relaxed.  Like mentioned above, some people experience visual distortions and may even get an energy boost.  It all depends on the body, the amount used and the method of consumption.  The effects of Afghan Incense are short but worth the experience.

    The Good
    The product can be burned as incense or added to tobacco for smoking and the aroma of Afghan incense is unlike any other smoking blend.

    The Bad
    Afghan Incense is a powerful product and may be too strong for first time users.  In other words, be cautious if it is your first time.

    The Verdict
    Because Afghan Incense smells incredibly aromatic and wonderful, it is simply worth the experience just for the scent and flavors.  Above all, the outcome and effects are just like the real deal.

    Salvia Extract 20x

    Salvia divinorum is a plant found in the Mazatec region of Mexico whose leaves contain Salvinorin A, which is an active ingredient that produces psychedelic effects. The plant has been historically used for divinatory and medicinal purposes and is used today as a legal smoking herb.

    You can smoke or chew Salvia, but I find that smoking produces the strongest effects, which tend to fall in a range from mild to strong. Every user of Salvia needs to bear in mind that the effects of Salvia are different for every individual due to body chemistry, potency, dosage, smoking technique, setting and other factors.

    This review is based on a 20x concentration of Salvia smoked in a pipe, without mixing other substances. The session typically lasts anywhere from 20 to 45 minutes and users generally experience the onset of the effects within the first minute. Once the Salvia kicks in, your perception of things around you change and your vision may blur. Your body feels relaxed and fluid with the surroundings. Many people experience a lack of coordination and altered perceptions.

    The environment tends to vibrate, abstract shapes appear, objects repeat themselves, and patterns appear. In other words, your senses are heightened and you become sensitive to colors, shapes, sounds and texture. After several minutes into the session, one begins to laugh, often without any control. If you are accompanied by sitters or other users, like I did, you may experience feelings of sensuality. Your sense of touch changes as you feel other objects and even the people around you. What gives me great pleasure when using Salvia is the deep insight you gain about your own life and the universe you live in. One can say that a session with Salvia is an eye opening experience but one that also puts you in a better mood the rest of the day. With the altered perceptions and heightened senses, I am able to appreciate beauty.

    The overall experience is relaxing and peaceful, but it is important to note that you may experience a milder or stronger session. It is possible, although not easy, to hallucinate after using Salvia. The peak of most sessions is after five minutes and the effects begin to ware off after fifteen to thirty minutes. The after effects typically last for about fifteen to twenty minutes.

    Buzz Herbal Incense

    Editors Review

    There are a lot of herbal incense blends out there and choosing the best one simply takes testing.  After trying almost every kind, Buzz has proven to be one of the most satisfying and it is no wonder that Buzz Herbal Incense is hot on the market.

    Like most herbal smoking blends, Buzz is made of natural herbs.  You’ll find ingredients like Damiana, Bay Bean, Dwarf Skullkap, Vanilla, Stevia Leaves, Rose Petals, Hope and Licorice.  The end result: a sweet scent and a powerful blend.

    For starters, Buzz Herbal Incense can be burned on its own as incense or it can be added to tobacco for smoking.  Smoking buzz creates stronger effects compared to burning it as incense.  At the first puff, you can already get the sense that Buzz is smooth to smoke.  To top it off, Buzz has a wonderful aromatic fragrance that simply adds to the whole experience.

    Once the package is opened and the method of consumption is chosen, the effects of Buzz will start to kick in.  The high lasts for quite a long time, anywhere from an hour to three hours.  Buzz Herbal Incense is the ultimate blend for the perfect mind and body high.  You will soon start to feel relaxed, your body calm and your mind clear.  This is the ideal smoking blend to use after a stressful day at work.  Unlike Salvia and even Afghan Herbal Incense, Buzz does not create altered perceptions or cause you to hallucinate.  It really is meant to relax you and de-stress.  You will notice an improvement in your mood and when you feel better, you will have more energy later.

    The Good
    Buzz is the ultimate blend for a smooth smoke and sweet aroma.  It is not harsh like some other products on the market.

    The Bad
    Buzz may not be strong for everyone, especially if you are a frequent user.

    The Verdict
    For a long-lasting experience, sweet fragrance and strong effects, Buzz is the perfect blend.
