They can also produce feelings drowsiness, mental confusion and euphoria. The analgesic effects of narcotics result from the drugs’ effects on the emotional aspects of pain.

Opiate drugs are derived from chemicals that originate in the poppy plant. Some opiates are used as an effective way to eliminate pain, while others are used illicitly. However, the addictive nature of these substances make it important to understand the powerful state of these substances. Below is a list of the most common opiates and their potency.

The term “bath salts” does not refer to what you’d put in your bath to make it smell nice, it tends to refer to a large group of drugs containing one or even multiple synthetic chemicals relating to cathinone’s, found in the khat plant. Where most drugs tend to affect either the endocrine or the nervous system, this drug affects both. This drug is not a hallucinogen, and is also less harmful than ecstasy.

In this systematic review, the reviewers compare the use of Kratom (AKA Mitragyna speciosa) against Buprenorphine in opioid addicts to relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms. This systematic review was conducted to determine which substance was more effective at relieving opioid withdrawal symptoms. The systematic review was conducted using three different search medical and health related databases: PubMed, CINAHL, and ProQuest Medical, that used only sources from 2008 to present, that were full text, scholarly, and peer evaluated. The reviewers determined that Kratom does indeed result in reducing severe opioid withdrawal symptoms, but also can result in addiction, and that there is very little research on the addictive qualities of Kratom.

"Bath salts" is the common name for a group of drugs called synthetic cathinones. These are drugs made of chemicals from a plant (khat). They may be sold as pills, crystals, or a powder that is white, tan, or brown. There is no medical use for bath salts. They are designed to have the same effects as cocaine, ecstasy, and amphetamines without being illegal (designer drugs). They work by stimulating the release of a certain brain chemical (dopamine). A high level of dopamine in the brain can cause high blood pressure, rapid heartbeat, and seizures.

Hey there everyone! I was recently sent some samples by Grey Street Herbals and I’ve been so excited to try them! I was sent 6 strains and I will be reviewing them all! **I won’t be rating -/10 because I believe that type of rating doesn’t serve justice to kratom strains as a less powerful strain may be more appealing than a higher quality strain due to different effects/medicinal uses**. I have been using kratom consistently for a couple months but I’ve been using kratom off and on for about half a year.

From there it spread to several surrounding countries. Some of those countries include Fiji, Polynesia, New Guinea, and Micronesia. However, Kava is unique in that its propagation is completely dependent upon the hands of humans. Kava is spread from the cutting of the cultivars which are then transported and replanted by humans. In these countries, it is so popular, and so commonly used, that it is considered to be a cash crop. Unlike a lot of medicinal plants, the roots are the desirable contents of the Kava plant. It is the roots that are extracted from the plant for the purpose of human consumption. In countries where Kava has originated, the root is traditionally consumed as a drink. However, as the effects of Kava are becoming more well known, as well as further researched, the demand for the plant is increasing. With the increase in demand, more manufacturers are producing new forms of this plant. Today, extracts from Kava can be found in forms of drinks, powders, and capsules. Ever since the use of Kava has begun increasing in popularity around the world, several cases of liver damage have been reported. Enough so, that a correlation between consumption of the Kava root, and liver toxicity have been hypothesized to be
