Ethnobotanicals Can you take a delta 8 edible and kratom at the same time?

I know it’s not dangerous. I’m just not sure if the efficacy. I know that kratom inhibits the primary enzyme responsible for metabolizing cannabis and am unsure if this will make the cannabis not work or will it just be less potent? Or am I understanding this wrong?

I’ve done this before, both worked as intended. There was a slight increase in my anxiety but not as much as when I consume actual weed edibles (containing delta 9)

Yea sure give it a try, I think it’ll work. But however I never tried delta8, I used to smoke regular weed together with kratom a lot though

Yes.

In general, Cannabis does not contribute to dangerous symptoms like Respiratory Depression. It will sedate you, intoxicate you, et cetera, but it will not contribute to anything dangerous. I'll admit I don't know much about these THC analogs. My understanding is that they are very similar to actual THC, unlike the infamous "Spice" and "K2". The latter group are not well-understood.

Kratom contains alkaloids that seem to function as Opioid Agonists. Mitragynine is the primary alkaloid and it seems to produce its effects by acting as an Opioid Agonist. Consuming other CNS depressants like Benzodiazepines or Alcohol would be a different story.

Kratom and weed go great together, but i do notice a decrease in the weed high when combining them. I become almost insatiable. Maybe it has to do with enzyme inhibition, maybe something else. Anyway it's not a dangerous combination.
