It appears as though there is conflicting research regarding the potentiation of most drugs concerning whether to use alkaline substances to prime the stomach or acidic substances to break substances down faster.

So as we know, citric acid can help break down plant matter to its finer constituents, which helps with quicker absorption of said constituents..but taking antacids can help absorb MORE of the substance in question so that stomach acids don't destroy the compounds we are trying to absorb..

So my question is, can anyone give me some insight on to what would work better, or if there is a method to all of the acidic vs alkaline madness?
 
No, there's not really a straight answer, with kratom anyway. If you want it to hit faster and be more readily absorbed I suggest making tea, drinking that and then taking antacids. I used to use a bit of citric acid in some water to brew kratom tea. The tea hit hard and fast but it never seemed to last that long.
