Description
Barlowe's Herbal Elixirs now offers a powerful Sceletium Tortuosum "Kanna" 6:1 Extract.The Certificate of Analysis (COA) of this batch is shown above.
Kanna is well known for its mood enhancing qualities. It has been utilized by South African natives for centuries to elevate mood, to decrease anxiety and stress, and as an appetite suppressant.
***These vegetable-derived capsules (Vegan, Kosher and Halal certified) are filled on slow speed equipment and only pure, unadulterated herbal extract is contained in the capsules. No nuts or shellfish are processed in the facility. There are no magnesium stearates, fillers, gelatin, silicates, gluten, corn, wheat, rice, yeast, starch, titanium dioxide, artificial colors, artificial flavors or preservatives. Capsules produced with high speed equipment in herbal and dietary supplement "factories" generally contain several other ingredients, including powdered lubricants called STEARATES (which can greatly diminish an herb or supplement's absorption into the body). Check their labels! Barlowe also bottles his products in glass as he believes chemical vapors can vent from plastic containers and contaminate the contents and that glass is better for the environment.
Although South African natives utilized it long before, the first written records regarding Kanna date back to 1662. It was utilized as a barter item, and it was either chewed, or made into teas and tinctures. In small dosages, Kanna is still used in South African villages as a treatment of colic in infants. Kanna contains several alkaloids, including Mesembrine, which has been shown to be a potent seritonin uptake inhibitor. It is generally used to elevate mood, to combat anxiety, and to lessen irritability in menopause.
Caution:
Kanna is generally safe, but it should be utilized with care. In heavy doses it can cause stimulation and then sedation. Do not take heavy dosages when operating machinery. This product is for dietary use. Due to the seritonin uptake inhibition activities of Sceletium, there may be interactions with prescription drugs. Persons taking any psychiatric drugs (including anti-anxiety drugs, sedatives, hypnotics, anti-depressants and anti-psychotics) or any cardiac medications, are advised not to take Sceletium. If unexpected side-effects occur, discontinue use immediately! Side-effects may include mild headache, slight nausea, or insomnia. For more information, contact Barlowe at BarlowesHerbalElixirs.
