One of the most common questions I get asked is: “What is the strongest kratom for pain?”.

The majority of supplement users I know, take kratom for pain. This natural botanical has generated a considerable number of loyal enthusiasts who appreciate its ability to significantly relieve pain. The fact that kratom is an organic, naturally occurring plant, makes it all the more desirable to consumers.

So, what is the strongest kratom strain for pain relief? And, what is the best kratom extract?

In this article, we will answer those questions, as well as tips and tricks for using kratom for pain.

Let’s get started!

First off: What is the strongest kratom strain?

As I previously mentioned, one of the most common questions I get from kratom users, both rookie’s and regular users, is “What is the most potent kratom strain?”.

Sounds like an easy, straight-forward question to answer, right? Well, when it comes to kratom, this is a ridiculously complex question to answer, as it can produce a vast number of answers, depending on personal preference and opinion.

That said, kratom gets the majority of its “strength” from the alkaloid content found within the plants leaves. In order to determine which strain of kratom is the most potent, one must look at the extraordinary contrast in alkaloid content, from one strain to another. Due to the fact that kratom comes in many unique strains and vein color options, there are diverse effects a user may feel when dosing on them.  

The best and most logical way to portray what type of kratom strain in the strongest, is to discuss which among them has the greatest number of alkaloids and is the most powerful type of kratom for an assortment of desired results.

In this case, we will divide these desired results into the following categories: Strongest kratom for pain relief, strongest kratom for energy and euphoria, and last but not least, strongest kratom for sedation.

Strongest Kratom for Pain Relief

Using kratom to relieve pain is one of the plants most notorious benefits.

That said, what is the best kratom strain for pain relief?

Here are our top picks:

• Bali & Borneo – These two strains of kratom have an extremely similar effect. In addition, these two strains have almost the exact same alkaloid range.
• Red Maeng Da (for some, Green Maeng Da as well) – Maeng Da directly translates to “Pimp Grade” in Thai, and for good reason, too. Maeng Da is by far the most exhilarating strain of kratom, and for intense pain, the Red leaf version does a great job of killing all your aches.
• Indo or Indonesian – This strain is a cross-breed of Bali and Borneo, and many users find it to be very helpful for easing their miseries and producing an overall feeling of calmness.
• Malaysian – Great for that middle-ground area, when you need something for pain, but could also use a mood/energy boost.

Strongest Kratom for Energy

Are you one of those people who get out of bed in the morning, but won’t do a thing until you’ve had that cup of coffee?

For many, a boost of energy is exactly what they desire when searching for that perfect kratom strain. That said, the vitality that can be felt with a superior kratom strain provides a significantly smoother, and much longer, effect than what caffeine can offer.

Here are our top picks for energetic kratom strains:

• White Maeng Da – A personal favorite, this strain is incredibly empowering, and has a fantastic amount of alkaloids in it. Major energy and mood booster.
• White Vein Thai – This strain is right up there with White Maeng Da for a serious increase in energy.
• Green Malaysian – Much less energetic when compared with White Vein Thai and White Maeng Da, but somewhat better for euphoric properties.

Strongest Kratom for Sedation

For those who suffer with nervousness, there are some strains that are excellent kratom for anxiety relief. If you are hoping to loosen up a bit after work, or if you suffer from anxiety or insomnia, these strains are for you.

Here are our top picks in the “kratom for anxiety and sedation” category:

• Bali – Although previously mentioned, this strain is hands down one of the most steady kratom strains, and is an top-notch choice for providing sedative qualities.
• Borneo – Again, previously mentioned. However, similar to Bali, Borneo kratom is also one of the best strains for anxiety relief and narcolepsy.
• Indonesian – Generally speaking, Indo kratom strains offer less sedating impacts as the above two, but for some people, this strain is essential for winding down after a long day.
