One of the strongest strains of Kratom is Maeng Da. It comes in various strains depending on the color of the central vein of the leaf. Red Maeng da is considered very potent and effective. The other usual types of Maeng da are White Maeng Da and Green Maeng Da.
Yellow Maeng Da is an unusual form of Kratom. It can be considered a mystery because we do not have a yellow central vein of the Kratom leaf. This article will be discussing the properties of a very rare strain of Kratom that is not available in many parts of the world and is usually imported from Indonesia.
What Is Yellow Maeng Da and Where Has It Originated From?
Yellow Maeng da, also known as the gold powder is mostly originated from Indonesia where this strain is called as Kuning. This strain is not naturally grown, but it is created. It’s a fact that Kratom leaf can only have three types of veins; red, green and white.
Yellow veined Kratom leaves do not exist naturally. So, if you ever come across any site that states yellow veined Kratom, they are just fooling you. There’s no such thing as a yellow vein.
You can create Yellow Maeng da kratom in some ways. During fermentation the alkaloids in the leaves change, resulting in a different aroma, flavor and of course color. Fermentation can be done by different methods. Mostly the leaves are piled up (stacked on top of each other).
The process needs warm air as well as moisture. Moisture can be achieved by moist towels, rain etc. Doing this process indoors has far more benefits as the external environment agents are known to damage the alkaloids in the leaf.
The sun and rain can be a source of damage too. The warm air and moisture generate heat that results in the release of natural ammonia which changes the levels of alkaloids in the leaf.
The leaves are periodically rotated throughout the process. Usually, the process takes around 7 to 10 days. The process needs to be done very carefully because usually, you end up degrading the leaf to the extent that it is no more useful.
Some farmers add stuff to these leaves during the yellowing process like cat’s claw which is known to cause miscarriages in pregnant women.
The addition of substances to Kratom during the process doesn’t help with the yellowing but improves the potency of Kratom. Most of these farmers do not even tell that they are mixing stuff into their Kratom leaves.
How Effective Is Yellow Maeng Da Kratom?
It is said that Yellow Maeng Da Kratom is highly effective. This is something that is claimed by the users because research on Kratom is quite scanty.
A research group known as BioMed Research International published an article in a journal based on the origin and evaluation of Kratom. Out of 113 research studies included in this peer-reviews, 18 were cut due to irrelevancy. The rest of the 95 studies covered the pharmacology including pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, identification of alkaloids, characteristics of alkaloids, toxicology of Kratom and its epidemiology.
The research studies covered topics like the motivation to buy Kratom, its legal status, its effects and the myths related to Kratom.
By far it is the most detailed and comprehensive research study. This study has proven that Kratom has a huge efficacy and its alkaloids can be changed by methods including fermentation.
Similarly, another study published in Frontiers of Psychiatry talked about the high efficacy of Kratom and especially Yellow Maeng Da Kratom. The data obtained for this study covered a time span of 10 years.
The study concluded by saying that Kratom enhances immunity, improves mood and reduces appetite. It is an effective painkiller and provides relief from stress while having anti-inflammatory action in the body.

“1-2mg” “2-5mg” At least get your information right
You mean GRAMS. NOT T MILLIGRAMS. How does one make this mistake?
