Kanna, scientifically known as Sceletium tortuosum, is a succulent plant native to South Africa. Traditionally used by indigenous peoples for its mood-enhancing properties, Kanna has been chewed, smoked, or brewed into tea for centuries. It’s known for its ability to reduce stress, alleviate anxiety, and elevate mood by naturally boosting serotonin levels. Unlike many mood-altering substances, Kanna is non-addictive and provides a calming effect without causing drowsiness. Recently, it has gained attention in modern herbal medicine as a natural alternative for managing stress and enhancing focus, making it an intriguing option in the wellness community.
