There are a ton of ways to take kratom, and each has its pros and cons. There’s no single “holy grail” way to take it, and you may even prefer to switch it up from dose to dose to get the most out of your kratom experience.
But kratom softgels definitely deserve your consideration.
Combining pre-measured dosage, zero taste, and a way to take your dose that won’t raise any eyebrows — kratom softgels are a top-notch option that can fit wherever and whenever you need.
Here’s the lowdown on why kratom softgels are such a knock-out choice.
What Are Kratom Softgels?
First things first.
Kratom softgels are a type of pill, also referred to as “kratom capsules.” They contain raw kratom powder in a pre-measured amount, which is then contained in an easy-to-swallow capsule, often made out of gelatin or vegan gelatin.
You’d take them the way you take any traditional pill: orally, roughly 30 minutes before you need your dose (accounting for the time it takes your body to break down and digest the capsule itself).
The Benefits of Kratom Softgels
Compared to other ingestion methods, kratom softgels have a lot going for them. Here’s the elevator pitch:
Neutral Taste
Let’s face it: kratom powder doesn’t have the most pleasant taste. Of course, some users grow to love it — but for the rest of us, finding a way to cover up kratom’s raw, earthy taste is always worthwhile.
With kratom softgels, that’s easy as can be.
The softgel completely eliminates the taste of the kratom, so you won’t even get a whiff of the bitter earthiness! People who are put off of kratom products because of the taste should definitely consider fast acting kratom softgels as a great alternative.
Other Ways to Cover Kratom’s Taste:
- Pre-mixed flavored kratom beverages
- Brewing kratom tea or another tasty kratom beverage
- The toss and wash method
- “Parachuting” kratom
Pre-Measured Dosage
Measuring your dose of kratom can be a nuisance. That’s especially true if you’re measuring precise weights of kratom powder — which you should, ‘cuz precise dosage is an important part of keeping your kratom tolerance down.Again, kratom softgels save the day.
Any reputable brand of kratom capsules will contain pre-measured, precise and consistent amounts of kratom powder, giving you exactly the same dose and experience each time you knock one back.
That’s good for time management, your tolerance, and, by extension, your budget!
Other Ways to Minimize Measurement:
- Pre-mixed flavored kratom beverages
Discreet Dosing
Last but certainly not least: you can take kratom capsules virtually anywhere, and doing so won’t raise any eyebrows.
Kratom is legal throughout the vast majority of the United States, but it’s still a little controversial in certain circles. Whipping out your supply of kratom powder is likely to grab some attention and invite some questions that you might not want at, say, your place of work.
But kratom capsules? They’re discreet as can be.
Because they look just like a common vitamin or other capsule, kratom softgels are totally kosher for wherever your adventures might take you. And honestly, that’s a level of discretion you just can’t get from other kratom products.
Other Ways to Avoid Attention:
- Honestly? Nothing comes close to kratom capsules’ level of discretion. Winner by a mile.
The Downsides of Kratom Softgels
Kratom softgels have a lot going for them. So what’s the catch?
Well, there’s only really one: price.
It’s not a huge difference, but buying kratom capsules will cost a little bit more by volume of kratom than raw kratom powder or some other kratom products. Over time, that difference can add up.
Luckily, it’s not gonna break the bank. The difference is on the small side, and there are a couple of easy ways to deal with it:
- Only use kratom capsules when you’re out and about or when powder is otherwise inconvenient.
- Make your own kratom capsules!
