Bali Kratom: Review, Strain Information & More
With everyone and their brother releasing new in-house Kratom strains and blended varieties of products, Bali Kratom is the no-nonsense choice for seasoned Kratom consumers. When you buy a new strain that you’ve never heard of, you have no idea what you’re getting. Not with Bali though. There’s a reason they call it the OG.
If you’re looking for good quality, consistent Kratom, you can’t go wrong with Bali powder or leaf. It’s the vanilla of the Kratom world. You can find it easily, and it provides a predictable experience.
However, for these same reasons, Bali Kratom is also one of the most counterfeited strains of Kratom for sale. Chances are your local smoke shop stocks a low-grade or counterfeit Bali Kratom powder with gimmicky labels that shout out “Bali Kratom”. But, believe me, they are anything but.
On to our review.
What is Bali Kratom?
First things first, Bali Kratom does not derive its name from its origin. In fact, it is grown across Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia, although its origins can be traced to southern or western Borneo. Now, Bali happens to be the shipping hub from where Bali Kratom powder and leaves are shipped across the world. That’s how it got its name.
Bali belongs to the Indo group of kratom varieties and is widely cultivated in multiple countries. It is available in abundance, offers decent effects, and is usually the cheapest variety of Kratom you can find.
That said, just because it’s cheap, it doesn’t mean that it’s worthless or that it’s low-grade. In fact, in surveys of Kratom vendors, Bali Kratom is consistently the top selling product by a wide margin.
Effects of Bali Kratom
Bali Kratom offers several distinct psychotropic effects, ranging from the most subtle to the more potent. Although the effects and strengths can vary from one person to another, some of these effects tend to be consistent for most people. Here’s a quick look at them:
Energy
Native populations have used Bali Kratom leaf for relaxation for centuries. Today, modern users take Bali Kratom for a variety of reasons including its stress relieving and stimulative effects. It also works quite well for anxiety.
Pain Relief
All varieties of Bali Kratom offer noticeable analgesic effects. However, Bali Kratom comes in several vein types – with each providing a different experience. Some will provide more pain relief, while others may be more stimulative. For this reason, it’s important to start slow when taking a new strain.
Appetite
As a general rule, all strains of Bali Kratom tend to reduce your appetite. If you’re looking to engage in a marathon session of work, entertainment, competition, or something else, and have little time to eat, then Bali Kratom could be your game for the day.
Performance Booster
Yes, both sexual and mental! That’s right – Bali Kratom provides stimulative effects and improves circulation. With increased blood flow to the brain (and other areas), you will last longer in the sack!
Different Strains of Bali Kratom
Before you shop, it’s important to do some quick research. A quick look at a few popular Kratom brands will show you a large variety of different Bali products. Some with snappy names, other with remarkable health claims – all very similar in the end. The truth is they are most likely just blended varieties of Kratom, and nothing more. Some brands claim that their blends provide the best effects, but its important to remember that this is usually just marketing hype.
There are 3 main varieties of Bali Kratom most commonly available for sale. These are the original strains, and brands mix them together in varying concentrations to create those gimmicky blends.
Green Veins
The green vein strains of Bali Kratom are the most common, regularly earning the title OG. The effects of this strain can best be described as a balance between pain relief and stimulative effects. While it does offer some analgesic effects, green vein Bali can also provide a boost in energy. This makes it easy to see why its such a popular choice in the Kratom community.
Red Veins
Red vein Bali is preferred for its pain relieving and sedative effects. Red vein strains are also a popular mood enhancer and anxiety reliever. That said, these effects are secondary to its analgesic effects and people suffering from chronic pain will find the most benefit from Red vein Bali Kratom.
White Veins
The white vein strains are best known for their stimulative effects and mood altering effects. If you’re pulling an all-nighter for work or school, White vein Bali is the choose for you.
Dosage
Just like any other strain of Kratom, dosage depends on the individual. Start low at 1 gram and work you’re way up until you reach your sweet spot. Check out our article on how to take Kratom for more information about dosage and finding the right amount for you.
