Traditional Khoisan Herb for Tea and Smoking

Kanna is a South African herb that has been used for centuries by the Khoisan peoples. It contains alkaloids that can affect mood. Many users report a mildly euphoric feeling, more sociability, and reduced stress. It works differently from most herbs - more subtle but noticeably.

This is shredded kanna, ready for use. You can drink it as tea, smoke it, or chew it traditionally. Each method gives a slightly different effect - tea is milder and lasts longer, smoking works faster but shorter. The taste is slightly bitter.

Key Features: South African mood herb. Shredded form. For tea, smoking or chewing. Mildly euphoric effect. Traditional Khoisan substance.

Use and Dosage

As tea: 1-2 grams per cup, let steep 10 minutes. For smoking: use pure or mix with other herbs. Traditional chewing: take a small amount, chew slowly and keep in your mouth. Start low to test your sensitivity. The effects are subtle - do not expect an overwhelming high. Do not use daily to avoid tolerance.

How does kanna affect mood and what makes it unique?

Kanna contains mesembrine and related alkaloids that function as natural SRIs (serotonin reuptake inhibitors). This means they increase the amount of available serotonin in your brain, leading to improved mood, less anxiety, and greater sociability. This mechanism is similar to pharmaceutical antidepressants, but kanna works milder and for a shorter duration. What makes kanna unique is that it can be both relaxing and mildly stimulating, depending on the dosage. Read more about kanna and its remarkable properties on our blog.

What is the difference between chewing, smoking, and brewing kanna?

Each method of intake creates a different experience profile. Chewing is the traditional Khoisan method: the alkaloids are absorbed through the oral mucosa, effects appear after 15-20 minutes and last 2-3 hours. Smoking produces the fastest effect (within minutes) but lasts shorter, about 30-60 minutes. Tea works the mildest but lasts the longest, up to 4 hours. Beginners should start with tea to test their sensitivity. Dosage differs per method: for tea use 1-2 grams, for smoking 0.5 grams, and for chewing 0.5-1 gram.

Can kanna be combined with SSRI medication or other medicines?

Do not combine kanna with SSRIs, SNRIs, MAO inhibitors, or other antidepressants under any circumstances. Kanna works as a natural SRI and the combination can lead to serotonin syndrome, a potentially dangerous condition with symptoms such as increased heart rate, fever, and confusion. Wait at least 2-3 weeks after stopping an SSRI before trying kanna. Always consult your doctor if you are taking medication. Find more information in our comprehensive kanna FAQ.
