White Malay Kratom: Everything You Need to Know
May 28, 2021
When it comes to White Malay Kratom, there’s a lot of mixed reviews on it. Some say it’s super energizing and others mention they don’t get much action out of it. In this review, I’m going to ease your confusion and tell you everything you should know about this popular white kratom strain.
White Malay Kratom is a white vein strain known to be energizing. A moderate dosage might provide euphoric effects. You can expect this Super White Malay to be less stimulating than other white vein strains, but still potent.
Let’s first get into the effects of this strain so that you’re not left wondering any longer.
Effects to Expect
If you know anything about white strains, it’s that they’re energizing. White Malay Kratom does provide energy along with other effects, but at a different potency and strength than others.
Let’s get into what you can possibly expect from this white vein strain.
Energy- Not surprising, this strain has a good amount of energy to it. However, I wouldn’t say it’s more energizing than a White Maeng Da or White Borneo. I noticed that it’s a smooth and clean type of energy. You’re not going to feel overstimulated or like you can’t seem to stay calm.
It’s a good option for those who want to try out a white strain but are too afraid to get hit with large amounts of energy.
Uplift in Your Mood- The times I’ve had White Vein Malay Kratom, I noticed I felt optimistic. I was in a pretty good mood, to say the least. If you’re someone who needs a little pick me up from a rough week, I think you’d benefit from a few doses of this strain.
Euphoria- Similar to the uplift in mood, this has a ton of potential when it comes to euphoria. That’s actually one of the main things that White Malay users mention about this strain. If you take a moderate dosage without overdoing it, I think anyone will be able to achieve that euphoric feeling.
The trick is finding the sweet spot, or the correct amount that’ll give this effect.
Soothing- In terms of soothing benefits, it’s alright. Typically, red strains are best for this. They are also more relaxing and sedative. I find that the mood and energy boost can possibly help to alleviate any form of tension. But, definitely try a red strain if you want a more potent soothing effect.
Relaxation- It’s mildly relaxing. More energizing, but the smoothness and steady feel can help you have a nice balance of relaxation and stimulation.
Sleep- I honestly wouldn’t take this if you want to take kratom before hitting the sheets. Again, you’ll want a red strain because it’s more sedative and relaxing than a white strain.
What Can Interfere With Your Effects?
I do want to mention that your experience might differ from other people’s experience with White Malay. This is because there are certain factors that can affect what you get out of it. Some things to consider when taking kratom are:
- Your weight- Heavier set people often need a higher dosage or stronger potency, while smaller set people benefit from smaller doses.
- If you have food in your system – I remember I once had a heavy meal before taking an energizing white vein kratom and noticed I felt nothing. Yes, I took my usual dose. But, it makes perfect sense. The more food you have in your system, the longer it takes to break down. After that, I vowed to never eat a cheeseburger and fries before taking kratom. That’s something I can enjoy later.
- Tolerance- This is an obvious one. Those who have a higher tolerance need something more potent. So, certain strains might not feel as amazing compared to my low-tolerance people.
- Where you get your kratom from – This is actually a really important one too. I don’t know how many times I’ve heard frequent kratom users tell me that they loved a strain, and then bought from someone who had a terrible strain with no effects. Just keep in mind that you can always try the same strain from other vendors to see if you end up liking it or not.
What Are Redditers Saying?
So, I’m always curious to know what our fellow kratom community thinks about certain strains. This is no exception.
I was pleased to know that tons of users actually really like this white strain! A lot of the kratom users mentioned similar things about it.
Here’s what people on Reddit say about White Malay Kratom:
“Definitely energetic and euphoric but smoooth and sublime. No jitters and it doesn’t prompt my anxiety. This is what a white should be like.” -star-polaris
“I like only reds and green no whites but white Malay its its one of my favourites its different not like other whites…” -kratomsavemylife
“ I really good stimulation without the jitters/ and nice euphoria but not too much ..just smooth…” – gj2008
Overall, it seems to be a really nice and balanced white strain. Definitely worth trying if you want to branch out from your typical red and green vein kratom strains.
Origins
Where does White Malay come from? Well, just as the name alludes, it hails from Malaysia. Kratom was originally grown in these Southeast Asian countries. It naturally grows and thrives there because of the perfect climate and weather conditions it has for the cultivation of kratom.
These tropical islands and countries get plenty of rainfall, humidity, and moist soil. The rich nutrients in these soils allow for kratom to thrive and become the amazing plants you know and love today. The alkaloids inside these plants are what give it its awesome effects.
There are different colored strains because of the veins in the leaves. Red strains are a lot more soothing and relaxing. White strains tend to be more energizing and mood-boosting. Green strains are actually a combination of red and white strains. It’s a nice balance of both worlds.
Malay has become a household name among kratom enthusiasts. I believe it’s definitely a strain worth trying.
Choosing the Right Dose
This is always tricky to figure out, especially because it’s going to vary from person to person. The best way to figure out the right dose for you is to experiment a little. Now, don’t go crazy and take a whole giant spoonful of this stuff. That’s not going to go well for you.
You’ll want to start by taking 1.5-2 grams of White Malay kratom. This is a good starting point. If you don’t feel anything, you can increase the amount each day by .5-1 grams until you find what works for you.
Here’s a quick chart of a recommendation of dosages and the effects that typically follow:
| White Malay Kratom Dosage Recommendation (Grams) |
| Beginner: 1.5-2 grams Mild Effects: 2-3 grams Moderate Effects (Possible Euphoria): 3-5 grams Strong Effects: 6-8 grams Very Strong Effects9-12+ grams |
Powder or Capsules?
Both are good. You can pretty much get the same effects from kratom capsules and powder. But, there’s some things you might want to consider when choosing between the two.
Powder is great and I usually recommend it. Why? Because you get to control the exact amount you want to take. It can also kick in a lot faster. This is because your stomach takes longer to break down capsules. But, the bad thing about powder is that it can get messy. Also, it has an awful bitter taste!
Capsules are good for those who don’t have the extra time to measure it out. It’s also not messy and you can’t taste the bitterness. The thing about capsules, though, is that they are pre-measured. This makes it more difficult to get an exact amount. You’ll want to ask about the size of the capsules to get a better idea of how many grams it contains.
Ways to Take White Malay Kratom Powder
What I like about kratom powder is that you can take it a bunch of different ways. Here are some of my favorite:
This is a classic way to consume kratom. You can simmer some water and kratom over a stover for about 15-30 minutes. Add another cup of water and simmer for another 15-20 minutes. Add some honey and lemon juice. Lastly, drink up and enjoy this hot beverage!
- Iced Kratom Tea
Take the same steps for simmering kratom and put it in the fridge for about an hour. Pour the kratom tea over some ice, and you’ve got yourself a refreshing kratom tea.
- Toss and Wash Method
This is my personal favorite because it kicks in right away. Measure out your dose of kratom and toss the kratom in your mouth. Wash it down with water or juice.
White Malay Vs White Maeng Da
When it comes down to choosing between White Maeng Da or White Malay Kratom, it’s going to come down to the effects you’re looking for.
If you want something that’s more stimulating, I’d go with White Maeng Da. The phrase Maeng Da literally translates to pimp grade in Thai. What that means is that this strain has a stronger potency and some claim it lasts longer than other white strains.
For someone who’s sort of new to kratom but wants to enhance their energy without feeling overly stimulated, I’d recommend for them to try out the White Vein Malay kratom strain.
Overall, I think White Malay is a nice smooth white strain for the days you want a slight euphoria and increased vitality.
What About White Diamond Malay Kratom?
Diamond Malay Kratom is very similar to White Malay Kratom. It’s slightly more potent, but it can be a bit difficult to tell for someone who is tolerant to white strains. It’s said to be a slightly higher quality version of the classic White Vein Malay strain, but I’ll let you be the judge of that.
Mostly, I think it might just be a marketing tactic to make it sound intriguing. I think it’s a cool strain to try if you want something a bit more elevated.
Where to Get It
I’d suggest getting your White Vein Malay Kratom from a reputable online kratom shop. The reason being is because this strain has been known to be just alright or not as effective to some.
A lot of this has to do with where the vendors get their kratom from as well. Also, local smoke shops like to hike prices up and you might pay double or triple of what it actually costs.
One of the best tips I can offer you when it comes to finding the right kratom shop is to see if they have awesome customer service. You can expect to have amazing kratom from vendors who actually care about their customers. Plus, they can help you figure out the strains for your needs.
Another tip is to look around for the best deals and prices. Finding the right kratom strain can take some experimentation, so you might as well get the best deal for a strain that may or may not work for you. Whatever the case, just remember to relax and enjoy the experience.
