Who We Are?

About

Hey Kenta Despe here…

I started Tome of Tea as a platform to share my personal experiences with using herbal supplements and remedies such as Kratom, Yerba Mate, and Kava tea.

After sustaining a traumatic spinal cord injury, I underwent major surgery that left me with chronic neuropathic pain in my back. Surgeons had to implant metal rods and screws to stabilize my spine which contributes to the constant aching.

Over the years, I tried various prescription medications to treat the pain including opioids, like Oxycodone. While these helped initially, they came with unpleasant side effects that impacted my quality of life. 

Seeking a more natural solution, I discovered the incredible pain-relieving potential of Kratom. Derived from the leaves of the Mitragyna speciosa tree native to Southeast Asia, Kratom contains alkaloids that interact with the body’s opioid receptors to block pain signals.

I was amazed at how effective Kratom tea was at reducing my back pain and relaxing my muscles without sedating side effects.  Over time, I was able to wean off prescription meds entirely using Kratom responsibly.

Through Tome of Tea, I hope to educate others about using Kratom and herbal remedies to manage chronic pain and improve wellbeing holistically. I believe these natural supplements can transform lives when used properly.
