Kratom is commonly taken in powder form but it’s also available in liquid form. Liquid Kratom offers a number of benefits over the powder form and there are many people who prefer the liquid extract over the powder form.
Liquid Kratom is prepared by extracting its active alkaloids. In this process, raw leaves of the Kratom plant are dissolved in an ethanol and water mix. The alkaloids in the Kratom leaves are either alcohol soluble or water-soluble which means this method of extraction helps in getting those active ingredients out from the leaves. Some extra steps are also taken to protect these active alkaloids.
