Kanna May Work for Mental Disorders like Depression
TweetA unique plant
Kanna is one of the most interesting plants in the world because it may work to control mental disorders. Kanna is an herb in South Africa that is known to be grown in many plants and has been harvested for many needs. It has often been used as a mood-altering substance. However, it may be used to help control depression and many other mental disorders that relate to mood and anxiety.
What it does
Kanna will work to elevate a person’s mood. This works by controlling serotonin levels in the brain. It is not fully clear as to how it works but kanna does contain alkaloids like mesembrine and mesembrenone.
Kanna has also been found to reduce stress and tension in the body. Its relaxing properties have made it notable enough to the point where it may work well to keep the body relaxed. This makes it a drug that may work to control not only depression but also anxiety or stress disorders.
Safe to handle
A key point about the use of kanna is that it is very safe for a typical person to use. Kanna does not work with any dangerous side effects. It has been found by some to be a mood-altering drug that made sedate a person but it has not been known to be a hallucinogenic drug. In fact, there have been no harsh effects that can come out of it.
One of the best points is that it may be controlled as well as possible to where it can be stopped without any problems. There are no withdrawal symptoms to come from using kanna. Therefore, it may be used as needed to help control a mental disorder like depression. However, it is still best to follow it in accordance with how a supplement may suggest a person use it for.
