Africa's best kept wellness secret
Kanna — known scientifically as Sceletium tortuosum — is a small succulent plant native to the Western Cape of South Africa. Used for centuries by the indigenous Khoikhoi people for calm, focus and mood balance, it is only now beginning to capture the attention of the global wellness world.
Over 300 years of traditional use
The San and Khoikhoi tribes of South Africa used Kanna for centuries — chewing, smoking or using it as a snuff for its calming and mood-lifting effects during long journeys and social gatherings.
Rediscovered by modern science
Today, Kanna's active alkaloids are being studied for their effects on serotonin — bringing centuries of indigenous wisdom into the modern wellness conversation.
