Unregistered_Lurker should urgently read the rules.

Is Kratom an MAOI?

Tried Kratom last night, 6g of premium powder. Made me dizzy, tired and numb, with little in the way of positive effects. Zero nausea though. Today, I ate a lot of cheese and shortly after experienced dizziness, racing heartbeat, and chest pain/numbness.

I read later that Kratom's mechanism of action is similar to that of yohimbe, and yohimbe is an MAOI, which would make combining it with certain foods, including cheese, extremely dangerous.

Does kratom have MAOI activity? If so, it definitely deserves an extra warning.

Unregistered_Lurker added 1 Minutes and 54 Seconds later...

SWIM makes the correction that this was the "super powder", not the "premium powder", if that makes any difference.
