Standardized Extracts of Kratom

[kemistudent]

Down the hatch went 4g of 10:1 standardized Kratom extract..

Currently at T+15 min and wondering how this extract was obtained. I am new to Kratom, but had the oppertunity to check out 28g of the foilage and made a few glasses of some pretty bitter tea. After playing around a bit I found a nice mix for the tea that made it unoticable. I added some arizona ice tea and some Karo syrup and like magic, it was drinkable, and VERY enjoyable. I had wild sex for hours after I was done itching every square inch of my body. This was a week or so ago, and I thought the extract may help bypass the consumation of the herb. I gel capped 10 caps containing a total of 4g 10x extract, grabbed some OJ NOT FROM CONCENTRATE and drank em down.

Now at T+20, so what method do you suspect is being used to extract the fine brown powder? I have seen resin extracts and that looks like a alcohol extract of some sort. It appears to me that it is pointless to purchase 1kg of the foilage, to do a 10x extraction of the product to retrieve 100g of 10x extract @ 250.00 USD when you can just purchase 100g of 10x extract for 220.00

This makes me wonder.. why would they bother charging less for the extract per gram??

Any in the know, thanks in advance!!
