Gen Z is drinking less alcohol than any generation before them—and I’m here for it.
But let’s be honest: this isn’t just about “health trends” or “mindful living.” It’s because they’ve found something better.
It’s called kratom—and it’s a gift from Mother Earth.
Unlike alcohol, which destroys coordination, tanks testosterone, and leaves you bloated and brain-fogged, kratom doesn’t sabotage your physical prowess. You can train. You can think. You can build. And you don’t wake up with your face in a pile of your own regrets.
Kratom isn’t a poison. It’s a plant. And when used responsibly, it’s a tool—not a crutch.
But let me be clear: just like anything powerful, kratom demands respect. If you’re using it daily, keep it under 4 grams a day if you weigh around 70 kg. That’s a solid adult dose for clarity, calm, and mood support—not a ticket to sedation.
Don’t drive under its influence. You might be safer than a drunk, but your reaction time can still drop.
And most importantly: take regular breaks. Tolerance is real. If you hammer your receptors every day, they will stop listening. Then you’re not free—you’re dependent. And we don’t play that game here.
What I love about Gen Z is that they’re not falling for the same poison traps older generations walked into with booze and tobacco. They’re done pretending that numbing yourself with alcohol every weekend is “socializing.”
They’re turning the page.
They’re choosing clarity.
They’re owning their chemistry.
So here’s to the shift: from shots to strength, from ashtrays to adaptogens, from blackout culture to botanical control.
This isn’t weakness. It’s evolution.
