Other herbal products with pleasant effects?

Post by Dinkle-berg »

Hello! Please tell me about any other herbal products with pleasant effects. I don't want anything that would make me sleepy, but I'm interested in trying other things. Maybe even something to replace my morning cup of joe!

I have anxiety, depression, and PTSD, so if it helps with any of those that's a bonus. :)

Please provide a link to your preferred vendor and product! Thanks so much.

I'll come back and post more but some kavas are good for a social non-sleepy effect. I would be concerned that lots of the "non-sleepy" options would likely be in the stimulant class and could be bad for your anxiety/stress, but that depends on you I guess. Do you do well with things like coffee?

Yes, I do! Well enough at least. I can moderate myself pretty well.

I like Kanna. I've only been testing it for the last couple of weeks but it can produce anywhere from a mild euphoria to a strong buzz depending on amount taken and ROA. It interacts with SSRI's so be careful if you are on meds. I'm weaning off of prozac and using it for aggitation/anxiety.

Thanks, definitely curious.. spell check.. Guayusa is related to Yerba Mate right? Caffeine. :P Here's a good Amazon LINK

Looking over those products, lots of different Tea and herbal stimulants.. Moringa, "Natural Buzz" etc. scroll down...

Anyone who enjoys coffee, like I do.. be careful. A grande Starbucks contains > 300 mg caffeine. :shock: I've had to cut back! Not trading my coffee for anything.. But must put a daily limit on caffeine. Many herbal products have - watch out for Guarana. Don't need that! Two fantastic herbs with NO caffeine = Ginseng and Ashwagandha. I like pure red panax ginseng root, and the patented ksm-66 brand of Ashwagandha.

Yes, Yerba Mate and Yaupon leaf both related to Guayusa Leaf... I got 3 tree's of Yaupon and you can buy at your local nursery as well, Yaupon grows in USA.

I made a post about youpon leaf but i also miss spelled it, its Yaupon leaf!!!
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=3611&p=33717&hilit= ... eaf#p33717

Some products from amazon as well if anyone interested in Yaupon so you can combine all 3 as a synergy. I enjoy Yaupon on its own as well as a nice string dried Guayusa.

Yaupon Tea

Ballz do you have source to buy for your favorite Ginseng or ksm-66 ? would love to try a little and see what effects they do. and my mom would greatly benefit from it as well. you always got some cool stuff under your sleeves.

Reishi mushroom for just a overall good feeling. It's not a buzz per say. It's more like I feel 21 again. I'm 29. Not stimulating but clear headed. I can actually feel my immune system being stronger. I dont feel high I just feel as I should.

I like St. John's Wort, I'm not on medications that would be affected by taking it.. before starting a supplement do your research, cuz YMMV. :geek:

Picralima nitida(akuamma) seed extract works pretty good for tolerance breaks from kratom especially with the insomnia. I find it to have similar physical effects compared to kratom however there is no moodlift or mental perception change at all. I find it to also add to kratom but it tastes freaking horrible, if you think kratom is bad oh man this is on another level of bad.

Blue Lotus. I have not tried this by itself but had some Kratom mixed with Blue Lotus several years ago. It was very pleasant and relaxing in a different way then Kratom alone. I had totally forgot it until now and may have to look into getting more.

Blue lotus extract paste put into a bottle of wine is pretty amazing I must say, I'd imagine it would go well with kratom as well.
