What does Kanna do? (a.k.a. why we love it)Updated 3 months ago

Kanna is a natural empathogen and mood-enhancing plant that’s been widely used across South Africa for thousands of years. While it affects mental processes, it won’t cause hallucinations or bring you on a trip to the cosmos. It’s clinically-proven to reduce stress, bring calm, increase empathy and improve focus and cognition, helping people feel more alive, capable and connected to themselves, others and nature. 

Kanna is an empathogen (increases feelings of empathy and connection), a euphoriant (produces feelings of joy), an anxiolytic (releases stress and tension), an adaptogen (regulates your nervous system) a nootropic(protects and ups your brain health), an aphrodisiac (we know you know this one), a hypnotic (induces healthy, natural sleep) and is ergogenic (enhances physical performance, stamina). Plus it has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and immunomodulatory properties. No wonder it has been used ceremonially and therapeutically for centuries!
