Kratom and Weight Loss – Natural Weight Loss
Well this isn’t a new subject, the natural weight loss I mean. But Kratom is definitley a good way to lose weight if you are a person who tends to over eat. Kratom and weight loss is another great kratom effect that can be used to help MANY people.
If taken correctly, kratom will suppress your appetite, therefore, allowing you to eat less during the day. The reason why someone maybe overweight is simply cause of the fact that he takes in a lot of food, but doesn’t provide his body with enough physical activity to burn the excess calories. (that came from the food)
So naturally when talking about kratom and weight loss, you want to know how to actually lose the weight.
Activating Kratom’s Weight Loss Power
Kratom can help with weight loss, I have found that a couple of things need to be taken into account before starting. View kratom and food for a different perspective. But for Kratom and Weight Loss you need to:
- Have any empty stomach (super important)
- Typically taken while fasted (first meal of the day)
- DRINK LOTS OF WATER!
There are also various approaches you could do with this, BUT, let me talk a bit about I.F aka Intermittent Fasting.
The defnition of fasting is being without food for a certain amount of time. Right after your meal, you begin to “fast” until your next meal. This is why we call the first meal of the day “Break Fast” meaning that it breaks the fast that you have currently been in during the night hours.
Now, while you are sleeping you are not taking in any amounts of food, so when you wake up, instead of breaking your fast right away. Take some kratom (See dosage guide) and let the kratom effects take you. Than when kratom starts to wear off you can either break your fast now, Or burn a bit more kratom. (start with 1g)

Intermittent Fasting For Natural Weight Loss and Kratom
When it comes to the topic of Intermittent Fasting there will be a lot of controversy concerning the effectiveness of this “lifestyle”.
Intermittent fasting is described as: Fasting(not eating) for a stretched period of time which is common to use a 16 fast / 8 eating window.
Meaning that you will be fasting 16 hours of the 24 hour day and eating for 8 hours of it.
I have started using intermittent fasting in 2013 and have found that is by far the BEST WAY to lose weight, FAST. The controversy comes in when people say that it is
- Unhealthy to “starve” yourself
- You will gain all the weight back anyway
- You will go into starvation mode and actually gain weight
- Its all about calories in vs calories out
- Food is nothing, exercise is everything
If this is your first time hearing the word kratom than visit – What is Kratom?
*Look at the Bottom of this post for more suggestions on kratom!
I tell you this from pure experience that the list above is ALL FALSE! I first got introduced to intermittent fasting by the Hodgetwins on youtube (twin beasts that are very popular on youtube and funny as hell) Click this link to go their fasting channel Fasting Twins

Since using the intermittent fasting lifestyle, I have decided that it is my go to routine for losing excess body fat (although you will lose muscle as well) and up to 10 pounds in a week.
I regularly use this method of losing weight because:
- It works for me and I am able to do it
- I use kratom to help me not be hungry
- I drink a diet soda for the feeling of fullness in my belly
- I sleep most of my fasting time
The main thing to schedule with intermittent fasting is your eating windows and fasting windows
Eating window – The time which you have decided for yourself that you will be eating the right amounts of food that your body needs. I.e Proteins, carbs, fats and Calories
Fasting Window – This is the point where you will not be eating ANYTHING that has over 30 calories. Any diet coke is fine and drink LOTS OF WATER!
If you are looking to lose weight extremely fast (you will lose muscle faster too however) is to opt for a 20 hour fast / 4 hour eating window (you can get all your macronutrients in one or two meals)
However the normal go to intermittent fasting plan is 16 hour fast and 8 hour eating window.
Intermittent Fasting with Help
The way to get yourself into this mode (especially if your use to always eating when your “hungry”) is to start off with a 12 hour fast and 12 hour eating window and gradually increase the fast state and decrease the eating window.
The best way to do this is to push breakfast up 2-3 hours after you have awakened and stop eating 2-3 hours before going to bed.
I.e I wake up at 8 am in the morning, I take my pre workout (not enough calories to break the fast) and go workout, by the time I finish working out it is approximately 10 and by the time I get home about 10:30.
As I arrive I take my protein shake which immediately breaks my fast or breakfast. This starts my eating window and I will be eating every 1.5 hours until I have reached my Macronutrient goals (calories, proteins, fats and carbs)
At 6:30 I will have my last meal and then brush my teeth to help with not craving carbs (thats essentially the hardest part, fighting carb cravings)
I go to sleep at 10 and than repeat.
*Note: I am sleeping from 10-8 which is 8 hours. From 7:30 pm to 10:30 am I fast, meaning it is a 16 hour fast which is the minimum amount of hours to be considered Intermittent Fasting.
Intermittent Fasting With Kratom
Enter Kratom, the plant that will help reduce your appetite and focus your mind so that you are able to will yourself to fast in an easier way than if you were to do it without kratom.
This is not very popular with kratom (at least I have never heard of it) but since I have noticed that kratom helps with appetite suppressants, I knew there would be a good use to fast with it.
Intermittent fasting says that you cannot eat for 16 hours and this can seem tough, and sometimes it is. I have found however that with kratom, I am able to fast without even thinking about it (some days better than others)
It is a tad tricky with kratom though (especially for those who state it makes them hungry) because it does vary from person to person. Although I will share with you my philosophy on what I think is happening here.
Once you have dosed your kratom after about 20 mins you will feel it churning in your stomach, that kinda feels and sounds like a stomach growl. I cannot say that this is true for everyone.
BUT
What I have found is that if you go through the stomach growls (will make you think you are hungry) the kratom effects kick in and you will not be hungry for a while. If you have taken kratom and know about this feeling that you know exactly what I m talking about.
The thing though is that when most people take kratom, there not taking it to lose weight so the fasting aspect isn’t even in their minds.
This allows them to just go eat when they are hungry (stomach growl or tension in stomach area)
If we can fight through the “hunger” stage we can definitely start fasting effectively and this will allow us to get to our goal weight much quicker.
As for the myth about “it will all come back anyway” I have actually found intermittent fasting to lower my appetite.
This way I do not overstuff myself after my fast. I honestly don’t know how someone can go back to the old methods of eating after fasting for 3 weeks straight.
You may not be able to do this the first week but keep at it and blast the thought into your subconscious mind that you WILL be fasting for 3 weeks.
After you get use to it you will be able to use your knowledge of intermittent fasting when you get a little tire around the waist.
[pullquote-right]I have found that going through the “hunger” feeling, the kratom effects sets in allowing for its appetite suppression ability to also set in. This will allow you to fast for a longer period of time. It will take will power and trial and error but You can do it, and once its accomplished. Stack one up to the success charts! [/pullquote-right]
Like I said to make it easy start small, don’t go full on 16 fast and 8 eat right away. Start with 12 – 12 or even 11 fast and 13 eating window to get use to it.
Important: Make sure to EAT when its time and to STOP when its time, if not your just eating, not fasting.
Personally for me intermittent fasting is the way to go to lose weight, add kratom and you have an amazing tool to FINALLY get to the size that you want.
Add another benefit to this amazing gift from mother nature, Kratom.

Never heard of this stuff. I will definitely have to do some research on Kratom since I like to test new weight loss effects on my body. Great post.
awsome, I invite you to do your reasearch in the page section or in the various posts 🙂
also ask any question you want or email me personally.
have a great day!
I’d never heard of Kratom – how does it work once it’s in your stomach? Does it swell up with all the water you drink and make you feel full? This post explains the process of taking Kratom well, and I think you could add what Kratom does once you’ve actually consumed it..
I see you haven’t looked at the rest of the site loll 😛 everything on kratom is here if you look …. go up to the header under the first tab look for “kratom effects” and that will give you a broad idea….
for your stomach….it just sets in the bottom of it….the loss of appetite comes from the state change
Am I correct in saying this sounds like grazing? That’s what I tend to do and it keeps my weight off. In stead of having huge meals I graze throughout the day.
Cheers
no this is not grazing what so ever…
you must be fasting (for a fast) meaning no food for at least 16 hours than eat for 8
Great info, thanks for sharing. I have a flabby tummy after having 2 children. Do you think something like this will help. Other than my tummy everything else is fine… just can’t seem to shake those last bits!
hit the gym….kratom will definitely help with that as well…. it will give you motivation to go to the gym….
you need to lift weights….too many women think lifting weights makes them a bodybuilder overnight and this is SO FALSE evidence.
So to get a flat stomach you need to do small cardio (brief walk about 20 minutes a day)
and then at least 1 hour of working out your muscles…..including abs
also your nutrition needs to consist of low sugars….most people have “tummy flab” but this is impossible…..fat is fat 😛 you can’t have it just on your tummy….its spread….so yea sugar is the main reason for this! (yes pregnancy OBCIOUSYL changed your body but am i wrong to assume you eat sugars?) an insulin spike allows al your food to eat to transfer into fat….and an insulin spike occurs when you eat sugar 🙂
if you have anymore information on nutrition please feel free to ask… I use to be overweeight and now am fit…not 6 pack showing and vascular but enough to be ok haha:P
hope this helps 🙂
Looking to purchase capsules. Would like to lose 30 or more lbs. any suggestions?
Hey Susan
First of all sorry for the delayed response I appreciate your patience. You can easily make your own capsules with a capsule making machine that you can buy from any local store like Walmart or a vitamin store that sells them. You then have to buy empty caps.
The thing with capsules is that the kratom will take longer to take effect and you will have to eat a lot of caps (aka plastic) which in turns becomes hard on your stomach.
I agree the taste of kratom is horrendous AT FIRST, but I literally do not taste it at all anymore. I put water in my mouth, add kratom (start with just a tiny bit per toss and wash) and wash it down with water. Just do 5 times half tea spoons (should be around .5 grams) and that will equate to 2 grams of kratom.
But like I said, you can always make your own. I have never bought capsules because I cannot weigh the product when it comes in, making it very very hard to dose out how much you take.
Some dishonest people (unfortunately everywhere) will tell you its all kratom and a certain amount of grams in the cap, when it is all false and tell you to take more so that you may feel it (a lot more than 5 per serving) and I just think this will cause problems for peoples stomach.
Hope this helps Susan …
Take care
Thanks for your helpful information and for the website and videos. Appreciate them.
I need to lose 30 lbs. for my February wedding and really need help. Kratom seems to be just what I need to lose the weight or come close to my goal weight by January. The only question I have right now is what strain of Kratom do I buy? There are so many choices and I want to get it right the first time. The wedding budget is slaying me and I don’t have much money to waste after those expenses.
I will wait for your answer and continue to follow you.
Take gentle care,
Gia
Hey there Gia,
The best bet is to rotate strains everyday for maximum effectiveness. There is no one strain that I could recommend for weight loss, but anything that is somewhat faster would definitely help give you the energy to make you go do some exercise.
With that being said I would stick to Hyper Hippo, Rockstar Hippo, Red “HOT” Hippo, Pleasant green hippo and Red Maeng da. This will allow you to rotate everyday and has a nice variety of colors (green, white and red strains)
Hopefully this has been some help, and if you need to know about other products that have proven to help me lose FAT and not weight, just email me and I will gladly share (ps it is not kratom)
oh, I love the ideas that you are sharing, and I would appreciate hearing more about your weight loss success. (or should I more acurately write FAT loss success) I’ve been hesitant to use kratom because of warnings about addiction. Would taking kratom daily mean taking this risk? That is why I would like to learn about other things too. Thanks
Hey Cera,
I understand that you are hesitant because of warnings of addiction that you hear. I will be honest I was a bit scared at first as well but I did sufficient research and found people who have done it before (all through Facebook) and I found out that this PLANT is helping many different people.
I would recommend checking out Kratom Addiction for more on this subject. I also have been taking kratom lately and in my personal experience I am not addicted to the plant. Although I do take breaks to make sure that I do not become dependant on it. I like kratom for the rush and the other various effects that it gives, however many different people use it for pain, insomnia, restless leg syndrome, adhd… etc.
There are various benefits to this plant. Refer as well to kratom lifestyle – taking kratom everyday for an idea of how to go about taking your kratom everyday.
This leads me to your enquiry about my weight loss, unfortunately it was not only FAT loss, (although I do have amazing muscle memory) but yes I was able to lose a lot of weight. My go to weight loss system is Intermittent Fasting.
Intermittent fasting if you don’t know consists of fasting (not eating) for 16 hours and eating for the other 8 hours. This is mainly how I used kratom to help me.
Why & how?
Alright so this VARIES!!! I have to mention because I have talked with many people and some say it cuts their appetite, some say it ups their appetites. I am currently writing a blog post especially on Intermittent Fasting for kratombible.com which will cover my whole fasting process in detail.
I am definitely sure that you are aware but I will state it, The healthier you keep your body, the better you will look (hence more muscle less fat *and Im not talking beast muscles unless thats what you want which will require ALOT OF FOOD*) so I will recommend you check out kyaniscience.com for a view on their health supplements.
You will notice that their are only three products but they are packed with everything you can think of, and if you need to buy at any point the store is hamiltonarea.kyani.net. *NOTE: ALL PRICES ARE IN US$*
Hopefully this helps (except for the fasting which will be posted by Wednesday night 12 pm)
Also look for the news letter to keep updated with future posts (coming VERY soon)
Alright Cera again, hopefully this will help you and take care.
Sincerely,
Jessy
