White Dragon is a unique kratom strain. It is a fusion of two potent strains - White Elephant Kratom and White Maeng Da Kratom.


Let us take you through the ins and outs of this fantastic strain to understand why you should add it to your wellness routine.

What is White Dragon Kratom?

White Dragon Kratom is a blend of two potent strains. Hence, it's considered a potent strain.


White Dragon is made with the leaves of White Elephant Kratom and White Maeng Da Kratom. They're harvested early in their maturity to ensure maximum freshness and then dried in an air-conditioned room with no light. 


This prevents any alkaloids, including mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine, from breaking down, ensuring a high level of potency.


The beauty of Dragon Kratom is that it is first tested in a state-of-the-art laboratory to confirm that it is 100% pure and organic. This ensures you are getting quality and safe products. In fact, all kratom strains in the Kratom Monkey brand must go through rigorous testing.

What Does Dragon Taste Like?

To me, White Dragon kratom tastes very earthy and bitter, similar to matcha. Although it's not as bitter as green strains, it nevertheless, its flavor may be difficult for some people to tolerate. 


Unlike the crystallized powder from sugar or table salt, White Dragon powder is very fine. Once it's mixed with water, it turns into a type of thick sludge, which is also very unenjoyable for some people to consume. 

White Dragon Kratom Side Effects 

It's crucial to know what you're doing when using White Dragon kratom. Being a blend of two potent strains, White Dragon can easily induce side effects, especially when used in high dosages.


When used moderately and responsibly, White Dragon is usually well tolerated by most people. However, some rare side effects include:


  • Dry mouth
  • Dizziness
  • Excessive sweating
  • Itching
  • Hallucinations
  • Liver damage
  • Memory issues
  • Aggression and rage
  • Tongue numbness

Sometimes White Dragon can bring about long-term side effects. This is evident in people who overdose or misuse kratom for a long time. Some of them are:


  • Frequent urination
  • Frequent constipation
  • Darker facial hair
  • Weight loss
  • Prolonged dry mouth
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Delusions


More severe side effects such as coma and death might also occur, though in very rare cases. Death or coma occurs when the product is used in extremely high doses or with other substances. 


The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reported approximately 44 kratom related fatalities in 2017.


White Dragon should never be used by pregnant women or women who breastfeed their children. 

White Dragon Kratom Dosage 

Unfortunately, providing you with an exact universal dose is not plausible, as factors like your weight, gender, and tolerance all come into play. 


However, if you're new to kratom, I've provided you with a starting dose in the table below to help you on your journey. 


Just remember not to take kratom twice in the same day if you're new to kratom, as doing so will significantly increase the chances of you experiencing side effects.

How Long Does White Dragon Take to Kick in?

The time it takes for White Dragon to kick in is going to depend on how you decide to use the strain. 


For example, capsules take much longer to kick in than tea. Check out the table below to see more. 

How To Use White Dragon Kratom

When kratom leaves reach a certain stage in their maturity, they are harvested, dried for a few weeks, then grounded into a powder that can be used as is or converted into additional types of kratom products. 

Below are the three more popular ways of using kratom. 

White Dragon Capsules

Pros:


- No bad flavors


Cons:

- Higher cost

- Take the longest to kick in

- Effects are slightly less potent 


Capsules are great for those who can't tolerate kratom's bitter and harsh taste. 


At Kratom Monkey, each capsule holds 0.7 grams of powder and is made with vegan material to protect people with allergic reactions to animal products. 

White Dragon Tea

Pros:

- Kicks in super fast

- Potent results


Cons:

- Effects don't last as long

- Pungent bitter taste


Tea is my least favorite way of using White Dragon. It's time consuming and ineffecient. I also don't like the taste (coming from someon who doesn't mind the toss and wash). 


However, if you enjoy teas, then maybe a not so delicious White Dragon tea will suit you best. Just make sure to never boil kratom, as that will destroy the alkaloids and reduce the potency. 

Toss & Wash

Pros:

- Kicks in fast

- Potent results

- Lowest cost


Cons:

- Extremely bitter taste

- Some people may not enjoy the powdery texture


The toss and wash is my favorite way of using White Dragon. However, it's not for everyone, as the taste and texture are very harsh. 


The toss and wash requires you to take a spoonful of kratom powder, swirl it around your mouth with water, and gulp it down. It's highly unpleasant, but the results are worth it in my opinion. 

How To Store White Dragon Kratom

Storing White Dragon kratom requires minimizing its exposure to three elements, sunlight, heat, and humidity, as doing so will destroy the alkaloids and reduce the potency. 


Therefore, the worst places to White Dragon include: 


  • Sinks

  • Bathrooms

  • Ovens

  • Chimneys

  • Heaters

  • Stoves

  • Window sills

  • Cars


The best places for storage include: 


  • Closets

  • Pantries

  • Drawers


It's okay to transfer your kratom into a transparent jar, so as long as you store kratom in the places suggested above. 

What is White Dragon's Shelf Life?

I've stored kratom for an entire year without noticing a reduction in potency. Therefore, White Dragon's kratom's shelf life is at least one year. 


However, if you freeze White Dragon in an air tight container, the shelf-life will be extended past a year. 

Is White Dragon Kratom Legal?

Yes, kratom is legal in the United States, but only under federal law. States and local governments have the right to create their own laws regarding the herb. 


In fact, cities and counties have banned kratom, regardless of state law. Hence, you should always be very mindful of kratom laws when visiting new jurisdictions. 


The following six states have banned kratom: 


1. Arkansas

2. Alabama

3. Vermont

4. Indiana

5. Wisconsin

6. Rhode Island

White Dragon Kratom Buying Tips

Alright, so you've decided to buy White Dragon kratom, and now you need to figure out if the product is high quality. I got you covered. 


The following three tips will help you decide whether a vendor is selling high quality White Dragon kratom. 

Organic

The first thing you want to look for is a label stating the product is organic, which means it's free from heavy metals, pesticides, and harmful pathogens like E. Coli and Salmonella. 

Third Party Lab Tests

Lab tests verify the product is organic as well as the true concentration of alkaloids in the White Dragon product. Thus, providing the customer with the opportunity of comparing various vendors. 

Customer Guarantee

A vendor who sells high quality products is not afraid to back them up with a solid customer guarantee. 


Therefore, keep a lookout for a guarantee when purchasing White Dragon.
