KANNECT™ Kanna, enriched with mesembrine and related alkaloids, is your natural ally against stress and anxiety. Experience improved mood, enhanced energy levels, and a calmer mind with our authentic South African Kanna. Sceletium tortuosum contains mesembrine and the related kanna alkaloids mesembranol and mesembranone. Mesembrine is known for its beneficial effects on the central nervous system. Sceletium is a small genus of low-growing succulent shrubs in the ice plant family (Aizoaceae) endemic to the karroo areas of Western, Eastern, and Northern Cape Provinces in South Africa. KANNECT™ is a 3% Kanna alkaloid. The percentage of alkaloids is measured in a lab using an HPLC Mass Spec machine. The most widely available Sceletium extract in the US is far below that, at only .35-.45% alkaloids, making Kannect the purest and highest-quality form of Kanna extract available.
