Kratom’s Complex Impact on Digestive Health: What Users Should Know

Kratom, a Southeast Asian plant increasingly popular for pain relief and mood support, is drawing attention for its effects on digestive health. According to a recent article on OrangeFizz, kratom can influence the gut in both positive and negative ways. Common digestive side effects include constipation-especially with frequent or high-dose use-as kratom slows gut motility, which can lead to bloating and discomfort. Nausea and appetite changes are also reported, with certain strains suppressing hunger and others increasing it. Some users find kratom helps with abdominal pain or cramps, particularly red vein varieties, though evidence remains mostly anecdotal. Experts recommend staying hydrated, using kratom in moderation, and choosing strains carefully to minimize digestive upset.
