Mitragyna Speciosa \u2013 commonly known as Kratom \u2013 is an evergreen tropical tree. M.Speciosa grows mainly in areas of Southeast Asia. The natural ecosystems of Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand are home to most of the 'wild' M.Speciosa. Under the right conditions in these tropical jungles, the height of the plants exceeds 15 meters.<\/p>\n
The first written accounts of the use of Kratom by indigenous peoples of Southeast Asia date back 150 years. They reported that chewing the leaves had stimulating effects and greatly helped with hard manual work, while boiling them into tea had analgesic and relaxing effects. Considering that the tree is native to various countries in Southeast Asia, it is a reasonable assumption that its traditional use by local societies has a history of thousands of years.<\/p>\n

Red Borneo comes from the harvesting of indigenous M.speciosa from the jungles of Kalimantan (Borneo). It is thought that wild Mitragyna speciosa are more \"strong\" than plants grown in farms. In the case of the Borneo varieties, harvesting is done with respect to the local ecosystem, guided by sustainable harvesting practices of native M.speciosa.
