What is kanna?
Kanna’s been used for centuries in South Africa as a traditional medicinal herb by San and Khoikhoi people. The plant can be chewed, brewed into teas, or smoked.
Traditionally, South African people use kanna to relieve anxiety or stress, quench their thirst, fight fatigue, or for healing and spiritual purposes.
European colonial farms used it as a psychotropic in tincture form (which means they soaked it in alcohol or vinegar).
Until relatively recently, the plant remained largely unknown outside of South Africa. It’s beginning to attract attention, though, because of the benefits it may offer (like promoting relaxation and boosting your mood).

Might improve brain function
Some claim that kanna can help increase cognitive function. Others say it can boost your flexibility, memory, and reaction speed.
One study on rats showed some enhancement from kanna in the form of Zembrin, and one small trial on humans showed some promise of improving executive function, mood, and sleep.
Might reduce stress
Kanna may be a bit of a sedative. It could promote a sense of calm or even sleepiness in people who are stressed.
One 2016 study found some suggestions that kanna extract could have some beneficial effects on people’s stress and hypertension levels.
Mood
Mesembrine and complete Sceletium tortuosum extract may work as natural antidepressants. In clinical studies, people who took Sceletium tortuosum (as Zembrin, the most common commercially available extract) reported improved sleep and reduced stress. In rats, a purified extract of Sceletium tortuosum was about half as effective as imipramine, a tricyclic antidepressant drug.
A few psychiatric doctors in South Africa prescribe kanna to patients with depression, mild depression (dysthymia), and anxiety. These reported case studies have been successful; in some cases, patients have responded better to kanna than to conventional antidepressants like citalopram.
Cognition
In psychology, “executive function” describes a person’s ability (or lack thereof) to plan, solve problems, and complete tasks. Mental illness and psychiatric disorders often damage a person’s executive function: depression, anxiety, autism, and even obesity all reduce our ability to get things done.Early clinical research suggests that kanna may improve executive function and cognitive flexibility. In one study, people enjoyed significant increases in these two areas after supplementing with 25 mg/day of kanna for 9 weeks. This study recruited 35 healthy adults between the ages of 45 and 65; larger studies with more varied people will demonstrate whether this benefit is significant.
Serotonin Reuptake Inhibition
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter with a wide array of important functions in your brain and in the rest of your body. It regulates mood, sleep, food intake, and a variety of behaviors.
Low serotonin levels or activity in certain parts of the brain can worsen mood and may lead to depression. On the other hand, activating specific serotonin receptors can trigger a psychedelic state with powerful feelings of mysticism and importance.Mesembrine from kanna is a serotonin reuptake inhibitor: it prevents serotonin from being absorbed and hidden away in the neurons. This could potentially allow serotonin to stay active for longer and have a stronger effect on the brain. This may also explain the mind-expanding effects of kanna some users report.
VMAT2 Activation
Vesicular monoamine transporter 2, or VMAT2, is a protein that transports neurotransmitters out of the cell, where they can have their effects. In the brain, VMAT2 transports – and thereby activates – molecules like dopamine, serotonin, and GABA.
One study suggests that mesembrine increases the activity of VMAT2. If true, then kanna may increase available serotonin in two ways: by increasing the amount of serotonin released by each cell and by decreasing the amount reabsorbed.
VMAT2 releases a variety of different neurotransmitters in different parts of the brain; kanna’s effects on these other molecules.
PDE4 Inhibition
In addition to increasing serotonin, mesembrenone also boosts energy use in the body by blocking an enzyme called phosphodiesterase 4, or PDE4.
PDE4 breaks down a messenger molecule called cyclic adenosine monophosphate, or cAMP. cAMP is crucial for energy balance – it is among the key metabolic controllers in cells. cAMP increases fat-burning and acts on glucagon, adrenaline, and immune cells. It also activates a pathway that forms long-lasting memories.
When mesembrenone blocks PDE4, it makes more cAMP available for longer in the blood and increases cAMP’s effects.
Receptor Activation
Active compounds of Sceletium tortuosum extract also activated the receptors for GABA, opioids, cholecystokinin, prostaglandins, and melatonin.
GABA calms brain activity and can decrease anxiety; natural opioids kill pain and create a sense of wellbeing; cholecystokinin reduces hunger and prevents inflammation in the gut, and melatonin improves sleep quality. Prostaglandins are complex molecules, but the receptor Sceletium activates (EP4) may support gut health and prevent whole-body inflammation.
