Even though Papua New Guinea may be one of the rarest regions to source kratom strains, it still features lush forests and fertile soil, contributing to the botanicals’ potency. Among these, Red Papua Kratom is renowned for its effective relaxing properties despite its limited availability.
Despite being a rare gem, you’ll be pleased to know that Red Papua is one of the most potent among the red-vein family. Curious to learn more? Well, let’s dive deeper into this strain guide.
Papua’s distinct climate, together with the region’s steamy rainforests, fertile soil, and humidity — just the perfect combo to allow kratom trees to thrive and prosper. However, despite its namesake, Red Papua Kratom is actually exported from within Indonesia, a country that shares half the island with Papua New Guinea.
Unlike the White and Green Papua counterparts, Red Papua Kratom leaves are matured and harvested at the latest, hence their potency. This also contributed to the strain’s rich alkaloid profile, with mitragynine and 7-hydroxy mitragynine as the major substances.
If you think most red strains already provide deep relaxation, you definitely haven’t met Red Papua. This strain promotes even deeper soothing qualities, making you feel calmer than usual. Yes, it’s the primary reason experienced users keep returning to this red kratom type.
More importantly, Red Papua’s extra soothing quality makes it ideal if you can’t wait to unwind after long, taxing days. But because you may feel drowsier than usual, we highly suggest taking this at night rather than during the day. It’s all thanks to the primary alkaloids that make up Red Papua that this strain may help ease body tensions, accompanied by potentially enhancing your mood.
Similar strains to Red Papua are Red Bali for its potential relaxation and the potentially mellow Red Sumatra, which is less sedating but highly calming.
While individual reactions vary wildly, the most common possible side effects of Red Papua Kratom may include the following below (but not limited to):
Keep in mind that Red Papua Kratom may have more serious yet rare side effects besides the ones we’ve listed. Although this might happen at any dosage, this risk could increase if you plan on mixing kratom with other substances, such as drugs or medications. Pre-existing medical conditions may also increase the likelihood of experiencing uncommon side effects.
The FDA has warned people not to use kratom due to concerns about side effects, both common and rare, in addition to the lack of safety studies. Always consider this and consult a medical professional before using kratom. One other thing to consider is the risk of developing tolerance, dependence, and withdrawal with repeated use. Some suggest it to be habit forming, which also included Red Papua and all other kratom strains.
There is no guidebook for Red Papua and kratom in general, but hypothetical dosage ranges exist which may serve as a guide. One should always test a new kratom strain, batch, or vendor by trying a small test dose of under 1 gram to observe their effects, reactions, and compatibility.
A small dosage range is generally considered to be in the 1-3 grams range. At this range, one might feel a subtle energy or alertness with Red Papua, along with some potential calming and mood-boosting effects.
A moderate dose of Red Papua might be in the 3-5 grams range. In this range, potential mood-boosting and relaxation qualities might be manifesting. It is important to note that this range will increase the risk of side effects.
A high dose is generally considered in the 5-8 grams range. This range might have the highest potential for relaxation and sedation and also a higher risk of adverse effects. It is generally not recommended.
Red Papua kratom powder is the cheapest and most efficient of the three standard methods. Some use the toss-and-wash method, while others encapsulate the powder, mix it with food or beverages, or use oblate discs.
Using Red Papua capsules is the most convenient, portable, and pre-measured nature, making dosing more precise and accurate. The downside is capsules are more expensive than powder unless you do them yourself.
There are several ways to make teas with Red Papua kratom powder. Using a French press for a coffee maker is common and convenient.
