🌿 NEW AT BOTANA: KANHA KANNA GUMMIES 🌿
35mg Kanna extract per gummy
You may have heard of Kanna—but this fascinating South African botanical has a story that goes much deeper than the latest wellness trend.
🌱 WHAT IS KANNA?
Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum) is a succulent native to Southern Africa. Indigenous Khoisan communities have a long history of using kanna in traditional preparations, including chewing dried or fermented plant material.
🧠 THE SEROTONIN CONNECTION
One of the most fascinating things about kanna is its chemistry.
Kanna contains naturally occurring mesembrine alkaloids. Scientific research has found that some of these compounds interact with the serotonin transporter, influencing the way serotonin is reabsorbed between nerve cells.
So what exactly is serotonin?
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter—a chemical messenger involved in many processes throughout the nervous system, including mood, sleep, appetite and stress response.
Kanna doesn’t contain serotonin itself. Instead, researchers are studying how its naturally occurring alkaloids may influence the body’s serotonin system.
🌿 Traditional plant knowledge meets modern botanical science.
That’s what we love exploring at Botana Organics.
