Red Dragon kratom is also very popular. People describe this as having a more calming influence than other strains and can help you unwind and release tension. It has been described as being able to quieten your mind while giving you a sense of well-being. Red kratom is also well suited for use as a sleep aid for people who suffer from insomnia. Physically, this type of Kratom is very soothing and can be used to treat muscle tension or as an alternative to pharmaceutical pain killers. Some of the strongest Kratom extracts that are used for opium withdrawal come from the Red Vein category.
