Full-spectrum kratom refers to a product made to retain the leaf’s complete range of naturally occurring alkaloids rather than isolating a single compound. The kratom leaf contains dozens of alkaloids beyond mitragynine.
The term is descriptive, not a regulated standard, so its meaning differs by vendor. It is most often used to distinguish whole-leaf-derived products from isolate-based ones. See Kratom Alkaloids Explained for the underlying chemistry.
