Sceletium tortuosum is a succulent groundcover from South Africa. We offer you fermented Kanna and unfermented Kanna of superb quality. Historically Sceletium tortuosum was chewed, smoked, or used as snuff. Fermentation increases its strength substantially. According to some users, the fresh leaves do not have much potency and it is said only the fermented Kanna has psychoactive properties. For hundreds of years, the African Bushmen prepared and used this intoxicating mysterious plant during their rituals. In ceremonies such as rainmaking, divination, healing, and communal trance dancing. The leaves were fermented and later chewed or smoked. Reports suggest also that the Hottentot tribe would combine Cannabis sativa with Sceletium tortuosum and smoke it for their rituals. Other medicinal uses include chewing the leaf for toothaches and abdominal pain. The Namaqua tribe would make a Kanna tea to suppress hunger pangs. Cape farmers instead used this plant as a sedative.
