The first known written account of the plant's use was in 1662 by Jan van Riebeeck. The traditionally prepared dried Sceletium was often chewed (hence the name Kougoed  - which literally means 'something to chew') and the saliva swallowed. In recent years it has also been made into gel caps, teas and tinctures. Sceletium can also be inhaled as a snuff, or smoked, usually with the addition of other herbs.  Kanna enhances the effects of alcohol and cannabis. Their combination may produce mild visions. The Khoikhoi were known to smoke kanna with a variety of different herbs, including cannabis, damiana, blue lotus flowers, wild dagga, tongkat ali and ginseng are other herbs that combine well with kanna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral uses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eSceletium elevates mood and decreases anxiety, stress and tension.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eIt is used to treat depression and is excellent for rehabilitating drug addictions as it is not addictive itself.
