Everything you need to know about Kanna, our strips, and how to use them well.
Fold the strip once or twice and place it under your tongue. Allow it to dissolve completely — do not chew or swallow. Keeping it under the tongue ensures the active ingredients absorb directly into the bloodstream for the fastest, most effective results. Effects may begin within 15–30 minutes, though individual experience varies.
Sublingual delivery bypasses the digestive system entirely, which means more active compounds reach your system and they do so faster. Pills and capsules must survive your stomach before they do anything useful — a strip skips all of that. For something like Kanna, where the experience is subtle and timing matters, that difference is significant. Each strip is also pre-measured, portable, and dissolves in seconds.
Yes. Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum) is legal in the United States and most countries worldwide. It is a natural botanical that has been used traditionally for centuries and is not classified as a controlled substance in the US. As always, we recommend checking the regulations in your specific country or region before ordering internationally.
AkinKanna products are sold as dietary supplements. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Kanna interacts with serotonin pathways in the brain. Because of this, it must not be combined with certain medications. Always consult your healthcare provider before use to determine if AkinKanna is safe and appropriate for your individual health needs.
Most people tolerate Kanna well. At higher doses, some individuals may experience mild side effects such as drowsiness or digestive discomfort. If you are new to Kanna, we strongly recommend starting with one strip and giving yourself time to observe how it affects you before adjusting your dose. Discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional if you experience any adverse reactions.
We do not recommend using AkinKanna products during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. There is limited research on the effects of Kanna during pregnancy or lactation, and caution is warranted. Please consult your healthcare provider before use.
Store your strips in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep them in their original packaging to maintain freshness and potency. Do not expose to moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
