White Thai Powder

What makes White Thai so special? Part of it is where it comes from in the world! Grown in the hot, humid climate of Thailand on specialized kratom plantations, this strain is harvested when the leaves are young, earlier in the lifecycle than green or red-veined varieties.

It is then dried in an air-conditioned room away from sunlight, which helps to preserve the alkaloids in the leaves. If it were dried any other way, it can change the alkaloids, which is one of the reasons why you only want to buy from vendors like The Health Place who source their kratom from farmers with experience and skill. It is through this specialized drying phase that the alkaloids in the kratom take their truest form, which is what makes each particular strain so diverse and incomparable to any other.

Kratom is a tree that grows in the wilds of Indonesia and beyond, but most of the farmers that harvest kratom have their own plantations to grow the quality of the kratom they desire and manage the cultivating practices how they best see fit. This ensures that customers get the best quality kratom.

While this strain of kratom may start like a lot of other strains, there are some things that set it apart from other kratom strains. This white-veined strain is perhaps the most versatile of Thai kratom in general, with an alkaloid content higher in mitragynine than some other strains and a lower concentration of the alkaloid 5-hydroxymitragynine. A balance of these alkaloids is what each strain has to offer and why you can find so much variety in the kratom world, even among the different vein colors of the same strain of kratom.
