Kanna Solace Standardized Extract 3%(Sceletium tortuosum)?
Kanna Solace is a standardized extract with a total alkaloid content of 3%, produced using a patented process.
The extract is made from the above-ground parts of the plant and vacuum-dried to preserve stability and quality.
The primary alkaloid is mesembrine, followed by mesembrenone and Δ7-mesembrenone, resulting in a well-defined
and analytically verified alkaloid profile.
So, what is Kanna?
Kanna, also known as Sceletium tortuosum, is a perennial succulent in the Aizoaceae family, native to South Africa.
The plant grows naturally in the western and northern parts of the Cape region, where it thrives in dry, rocky environments.
Historically, Kanna has played a prominent role in ethnobotanical contexts and is well documented in botanical research
and cultural history.

FAQs
What does “3% total alkaloids” mean?
It means the extract is standardized so that the combined mesembrine-type alkaloids make up about 3% of the product
by weight, as confirmed through analytical testing.
How does this differ from your 0.4% and 5% extracts?
All of them are standardized extracts—the difference is the target alkaloid level (0.4% < 3% < 5%).
Choose based on the alkaloid strength you want and your quality-control requirements.
How does this differ from a 50:1 extract?
“50:1” describes the extraction ratio, not the alkaloid percentage. This 3% extract provides a clearly defined
alkaloid assay for better reproducibility.
Are there scientific references on composition and QC?
Yes. There are published studies and technical resources covering analytical methods, standardization ranges, and
variability in alkaloid profiles.
