If longevity and staying power were the measure of a good kratom vendor, then Panacea Natural would be one of the best. This vendor has been on the scene for close to 20 years and continues to serve customers with quality kratom, sourced straight from Southeast Asia. Just like a lot of other vendors on the scene, Panacea Natural sprung out from a personal kratom need, but developed over time into a business with a goal to share good kratom with the rest of the world.
In 2005, Brian Bang and his then-wife Sarah were going through a personal challenge as Sarah developed an assortment of health problems. These debilitating issues combined symptoms of arthritis, joint pain, fatigue, depression, and cognitive issues, that were predictably followed by routine trips to the hospital, endless check-ups, and test after test that left more questions than answers.
After a while on a cocktail of medication that left his wife feeling weaker and still unwell, Brian found out about kratom, and gave it to Sarah as an herbal alternative. The results, he says, were astounding and almost instant. Of course, it pays to take the narrative with a grain of salt, as it is the company’s own account of how things happened.
Kratom then became a part of the couple’s everyday life, until in 2007, they decided to open their own kratom store called Urban Leaf Tea. They were one of the first on the scene to offer Mitragyna speciosa products online, with 90% of their sales coming through Amazon until they banned kratom from their marketplace in 2011.
In 2012, they moved operations to their own e-commerce website. Since then, the brand has done a lot not only for kratom buyers, but for the industry as a whole. Panacea Natural was a key player in overturning the DEA’s petition to categorize kratom as a Schedule I substance, and they were one of the participants in the 2018 and 2019 Kratom Leadership Summits in Atlanta as a mentor for budding kratom business owners.
Panacea Natural focuses solely on their kratom products, so you won’t find anything aside from kratom on their inventory. All of their products are neatly categorized into one of four groups: kratom powder, kratom capsules, shots & gummies, and specialty blends.
Naturally, their kratom powders and capsules are the most highly sought-after across their entire product line-up. Their whole list of strains include:
…which admittedly isn’t a lot. That’s because Panacea Natural claims to want to focus on a small amount of strains that they’re sure they’ve perfected the quality on, instead of adding and adding to their inventory, but falling short of expectations.
Their powders come in weights of 28g, 250g, 500g, and 1kg. Prices start at $9.99 for a 28g baggie, and increase to $95.99 for a kilogram bag, which definitely isn’t the cheapest kratom you’ll find but still well within reason. Capsules only come in one size, with each bottle containing 90 capsules for $25.99.
They sell a 2oz Kratom Liquid Shot in orange cream and mocha flavor for $16.99 each, as well as Tropical Blast Kratom Gummies that sell for $25.99 for a pouch of 10 gummies. Their Tasty Kratom Island Breeze Flavored Kratom Drink Mix is one of their more popular albeit gimmicky options, selling for $28 for 5 single-use packs. And then finally, their liquid extract in choco mint flavor for $23.99 for 10mL.
For specialty blends, Panacea Kratom offers a Turmeric and Mit. Speciosa blend in capsules, with the option for either green vein or red vein variety. Each bottle contains 100 capsules and costs $28.99.
All of their products are lab tested, and come with certificates of analysis for their customer’s peace of mind.
While they do have a 30-day satisfaction guarantee in place, they also state that eligible returns must be unopened, unused, and in the original packaging. Products that meet these standards may be returned within the 30-day window from the day the items are delivered, and fees may apply. They can issue a refund to the original method of payment used, store credit, or a product replacement if the buyer so chooses.
Specifically, Panacea Natural recommends that shoppers reject a damaged package right upon delivery to avoid any complicated returns. If you do end up accepting a visibly damaged package and want to send the item back, the company requires the carrier’s delivery record to note the damage, the original box, the original packaging, and a notification sent to Panacea within 24 hours of receipt.
Yes, they do, and it’s pretty straightforward. You get points for certain completed actions (like creating an account, subscribing to the newsletter, spending a dollar, spending a hundred dollars, writing a review, and on your registered birth date). Some actions give more points than others.
Points are valued as 100 points = $10. These can be used in conjunction with other store promotions, and users with an account on the website are automatically enrolled into the loyalty program.
After all of these years, Panacea Natural seems to have their system down pat. The brand enjoys a fairly positive online reputation and generates quite a lot of buzz on forums like Reddit even after nearly two decades on the scene.
While their kratom powders and capsules are generally well received, the company also gets a lot of high praise for their kratom shots, particularly the orange cream flavor, which has become a cult favorite among kratom users who want something a little more flavorful and fun. This says a lot about the Panacea formula, as kratom shots have been notorious for being gimmicky at best.
Many shoppers also appreciate how aggressive Panacea Natural is when it comes to sending out samples of their products. It’s not uncommon to get several grams of freebies with even the smallest of orders, and customers appreciate that the handouts aren’t old stock bunk that the brand is trying to get rid of, but actually good products that are worth trying.
If there’s anything at all that has generated feedback that’s less than positive, it’s little things like pricing which is always hotly debated, as many assert that the prices are worth it given the quality you receive in return. And then others complain about the mocha kratom shots, which they state are a little too bitter for the average user.
In 2027, Panacea Natural will celebrate 20 years on the kratom scene, and they prove why they’re still a relevant kratom source today. They’ve kept their inventory concise and focused on perfecting what they already have instead of expanding their line-up and potentially sacrificing quality.
All of their products are lab tested and are widely praised for quality, consistency, and freshness, and they’re one of the few brands to offer a kratom shot that people actually love and come back for. So if you’re still looking for reasons why you should give Panacea Natural a try, take this as your sign.
