Different Types of Kratom

We generally distinguish three types of kratom: red vein, green vein, and white vein. However, you may have also heard of yellow vein kratom. While it’s not a natural vein color, yellow vein kratom is a result of a different drying process which yields a yellow shade of veins and stems.

Red vein kratom is best known for its pain-relieving effects. White vein, on the contrary, is stimulating. Green vein and yellow vein are both more balanced and provide both effects, yet at a lower intensity.

Which is the Best Kratom for Energy?

So, is white vein the best kratom for energy?

Well, yes and no.

While whites are typically stimulant, not every white strain is the same. There are differences within each stain, too.

White vein may also not suit everyone. Especially, if someone is new to kratom. Same as not everyone likes the same strength of coffee.

Therefore, instead of simply choosing any white strain, it’s best to know the effects of specific kratom strains. Since kratom grows in different locations and conditions, it’s alkaloid content may vary from strain to strain. Even if they are the same vein color. That, in turn, affects the way each strain produces.

Let’s look at some of the most popular strains of kratom for energy and focus. We’re researched and listed user’s 5 of the most popular strains of kratom for energy.

Thai Kratom

Thai strains are often reported by users as the best kratom for energy, focus, and productivity. Considering the fact that historically Thai peasants and workers used it exactly for that, it’s not surprising at all.

Thai Kratom is which is mitragynine, one of the two main alkaloids in kratom that is responsible for its energizing effects. It provides long-lasting, stimulating effects that according to its users are smoother than those of coffee.

Out of all the Thai kratom strains, the referred ones for energy are white and green. White Thai kratom is much stronger and provides a more powerful boost in energy.

In the meantime, Green Thai Kratom is more balanced. It’s energizing effects are weaker than those of White Thai Kratom, yet it’s analgesic effects are stronger.

Therefore, if you’re feeling particularly sluggish and need a stronger energy boost, White Thai strain may be a better choice for you. However, if you’re looking for an energy boost and some pain relief at the same time, we recommend you to try Green Thai strain instead.

Maeng Da Kratom

Maeng Da kratom is another user’s favorite for energy and focus. Sometimes labeled as genetically modified or genetically altered, Maeng Da isn’t actually a GMO.

It originates from the Thai strains that scientists bred with the local Indonesian strains using the ancient method of grafting. It involves adding a shoot of a different plant to an existing one and letting them grow into a new hybrid plant over time.

Grafting is a common practice in orchards, greenhouses, gardens, and vineyards, and is absolutely natural.

Similarly to Thai strains, Maeng Da comes in different vein colors that one can use to achieve different benefits. White Vein Maeng Da is the most stimulating whereas green vein is both energizing and pain-relieving.

The best type of Maeng Da for energy will depend on your needs, preferences, tolerance, and experience with kratom.

Green Malay

Green Malay is an all-time favorite strain for many kratom lovers.

It has a mild stimulant effect which many find more satisfying than the potent whites. In addition to that, Green Malay also provides pain-relieving effects making it suitable for users who wish to alleviate pain and discomfort as well.

Green Malay provides long-lasting effects and users can feel a constant flow of energy throughout the entire day.

Another reason why many love it is because the effects of Green Malay set in and subside gradually. With some kratom strands, the effects can be felt in a matter of minutes. However, they go equally as quickly, and most probably all at once.

With Green Malay it’s different. One starts feeling its effects in about an hour. First, it’s relaxing and pain-relieving effects, then a boost in energy. When the effects subside, they do so gradually and one by one rather than all at once.

Red Sumatra

A red strain is not what you’d typically consider as best kratom for energy. Despite being a red strand, Red Sumatra differs from, for instance, it’s cousin Red Bali. Red strands in general pain-relieving and sedating, yet there are a few varieties that differ. Red Sumatra is one of them.

It has strong pain-relieving properties. Yet, it’s stimulant as well. Users describe feelings effects similar to those of Maeng Da or the green stains.

Because of its soothing properties, Red Sumatra is a good fit for those who are looking for pain and stress relief as well as extra energy.

Red Borneo

Alongside Red Bali, Red Borneo is one of the most popular Indonesian kratom strains. But, similarly to Red Sumatra, it’s on the more stimulant side of the reds, making it another good candidate for best kratom for energy.

The effects of Red Borneo range from pain-relieving to stimulating. It can relieve stress, anxiety as well as a number of various health issues such as hypertension, scoliosis, and fibromyalgia.

Red Borneo also induces euphoria and makes doing everyday tasks more enjoyable. This can be helpful for those who suffer from depression.

While red Borneo provides mild a stimulating effect, White Borneo may be a better fit for you if you’re looking for something stronger.

Best Kratom Quiz

Strains to Avoid if You’re Looking for Best Kratom for Energy

If you’re interested in the best kratom for energy, there are a few strains that you should avoid. These varieties do not provide stimulating effects, but, on the contrary, may put you to sleep. Quite the opposite of what you want if you have a whole busy workday ahead.

The main strain that you should not go for is Red Bali. Red Horn,  Red Maeng Da, and Red Indo are other varieties of the red that have sedative effects.

Which Strain of Kratom for Energy Should You Choose

That’s, actually, completely up to you.

Since kratom is a natural supplement, different people may experience different from one and the same strain.

We provide a guide to some of the most popular strains that you can use as a reference if you’re new to kratom. However, we don’t advise you to stock up on bags of one of them simply based on our (or someone else’s) description.

Many vendors offer samples that you can try before you purchase a full bag. Try not just one, but a few, and feel the effects for yourself.

It’s also good to vary your strains. Kratom users can develop tolerance, so, switching up a few varieties now and them can actually be very refreshing.

Best Kratom Dosage for Energy

Since the strength of kratom will vary per many factors, such as the type of strain, its origin, and processing, it’s best to refer to your vendor for more details to be completely sure.

Otherwise, you may purchase the best kratom for energy, but not get the desired effects if you take it incorrectly.

Remember that taken in smaller amounts kratom provides a stimulating effect as opposed to a relaxing and pain-relieving effect when taken in larger doses.

As a guideline, in order to get a boost in energy, take about 2-4 grams of kratom. You can even start with 1 or 2 grams if you’re less experienced.

If you are a more experienced user, you’ll still feel stimulating effects when taking 4-6 grams. But, you may start feeling the relaxing and sedative effects if you’re less experienced.

Taking 6 grams or more will relieve pain and relax you.

To achieve your desired results, make sure to measure your kratom dose properly, especially if you use kratom powder. Use a scale for precise measurements.

      Hi Tammy,
      Every person responds to kratom a bit differently, so it may be best that you tr a few strains, such as the ones from our list, and see how you respond to them. There are vendors who offer samples instead of full batches. These can be great for you to get the feel of how each strain is making you feel.
      Hope that helps.

      Hello Rocky,
      Teaspoons, or any other spoons, are not the most optimal way of measuring kratom. It’s easy, sure, but it’s very easy to mismeasure your dose. It’s always best to use a sensitive digital scale. They are rather inexpensive and available on in physical and online stores, for instance, on Amazon.
