Yellow Vietnam Kratom: Overview, Effects & Dosage

With so many strains to choose from, it can be difficult to know which strain is best for you, which is exactly why I wrote this thorough guide. 

Yellow Vietnam is a kratom strain that offers multiple benefits. Yellow Vietnam should be used during the day, as taking it late in the evening or night may prevent you from falling asleep. 

I'll share with you everything you need to know about Yellow Vietnam kratom based on personal experience, and the experiences of others. By the end, you will have made a definite answer regarding whether this strain is for you. 

Kratom is a tree that can grow up to 80 feet tall. Its leaves contain alkaloids which are responsible for producing many useful effects. 

Kratom can be found in four color variations, including: 

1. Red

2. Green

3. White

4. Yellow/gold

The colors are a result of drying and fermenting processes as well as the maturity stage in which the leaves were harvested. 

Although no one knows for certain how the yellow color strain is made, many believe it is simply a red strain that has undergone a unique drying process. However, the topic is still up for debate in the kratom community. 

Once the leaves are dried and processed, they're grounded into a fine powder which can be used as is or created into additional forms of kratom products.

The side effects can be eiter short-term, long-term or both. Hence, don't use Yellow Vietnam kratom irresponsibly. Only use it when you absolutely need it.   

1. Not drinking enough water 

2. Taking too much kratom

If you fail to drink a sufficient amount of water when using Yellow Vietnam, expect two outcomes: 

1. Dry Mouth (cotton mouth)

2. Constipation

The first is much easier to fix. I just chugged a cup or two of water. However, when I experienced constipation, the issue was a bit more dire. 

Like with a dry mouth, I drank lots of water, but unfortunately, the issue was not as easily reversed, as it took longer for the constipation to go away. 

Do yourself a favor, and drink plenty of water when using Yellow Vietnam. 

If you accidentally take too much Yellow Vietnam, you may experience the following: 

1. Nausea

2. Vomit

I'm not proud to admit that on more than one occassion I have experienced nausea, and let me tell you, it feels horrible. Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do to make it go away. 

Laying down and eating solid food (if you're not throwing up) will mitigate the side effects, but only slightly. 

Nausea is always the first stage of Yellow Vietnam's side effects. However, if you took a really large quantity, you may also experience vomiting. 

Fortunately, none of the side effects are lethal. They are just extremely unpleasant. Be very careful with your servings sizes if you want to avoid them. 

Only use kratom when you have to, and never recreationally. 

In my opinion, and my friends' as well, Yellow Vietnam taste like matcha. 

The powder is very fine. It's not crystallized like salt or sugar, and in fact, feels much softer.

Therefore, how you choose to use Yellow Vietnam is completely up to your preferences. Let's start with tea.  

Pros:

- No bad flavors

Cons:

- Higher cost

- Takes the longest to kick in

- Effects are slightly less potent 

Capsules are a very popular form of using Yellow Vietnam because it allows the user to bypass their taste buds. 

However, keep in mind they're higher priced due to the extra labor and material required for manufacturing. 

At Kratom Monkey, our capsules hold 0.7 grams of powder per capsule. They're made with vegan material to protect people with allergic reactions to animal products. 

- Kicks in fast

- Potent results

- Lowest cost

Cons:

- Extremely bitter taste

- Some people may not enjoy the powdery texture

This is my favorite way of using Yellow Vietnam, as it's fast and produces potent results. 

However, many of my friends have been unable to tolerate the taste and texture. You'll simply have to try for yourself. 

The toss and wash consists of taking a spoonful of powder, swirling it around your mouth with water, and gulping it down. 

Make sure not to breathe when you have the powder in your mouth or you will experience a coughing frenzy. 

The only thing I've found that helps with the taste is using cold water instead of temperature room. But in all honestly, it doesn't make the much of a difference. 

For example, a Yellow Vietnam tea is going to kick in faster than capsules. Therefore, take a look at the table below to get an idea of how fast each form of using kratom produces its effects. 

Therefore, I can safely claim that Yellow Vietnam's shelf life is one year. However, if you were to freeze Yellow Vietnam in an air tight container, I have no doubt it would last longer.  

However, that doesnt mean state and local governments haven't taken further action. 

Yellow Vietnam, and kratom in general, is illegal in the following six states: 

1. Alabama

2. Arkansas

3. Wisconsin

4. Indiana

5. Rhode Island

6. Vermont

It is not at all uncommon for cities or counties in states where kratom is legal to ban the product. Be very mindful of kratom laws, as they can drastically change with each local jurisdiction.
