Akuamma Powder

Our Akuamma Seed Powder: Traditional Harvesting Techniques for Maximum Potency

Even though it is technically a tree, the shape of Picralima nitida is actually more like a bush with its short and dense appearance. This reduced height makes it easy for harvesters to pick the fruits and split them open, extracting the seeds by hand and spreading them out in the sun to dry. Once these dried seeds are shipped to our facility, we then grind them into the consistency of powdered sugar and package the powder immediately to capture the maximum freshness and benefits of Akuamma powder.

The Science Behind Akuamma’s Effects

After centuries of use in African folk medicine, research is now showing that Akuamma contains powerful alkaloids that impact the “mu” opioid receptors in the brain, thereby reducing sensations associated with pain. In fact, the primary alkaloid in Akuamma seed powder, akuammine, has a very similar chemical structure to mitragynine, one of the two primary alkaloids of kratom powder.
