Kratom help please

So I bought a 12 pack of "Borneo White Vein" Kratom Caps. Each capsule is 800mg.
I've done 6 capsules before, so approximately 5 grams, and it didn't really give me much of a buzz. My friend felt it though and had a killer time. Oddly enough, we have the same BMI so I'm not sure why it hit him so hard.
Anyway, I really want to feel it this time so I'm thinking of upping the dose. Would this be dangerous? I'm thinking of starting off with 9 capsules.
Are there any potentially life threatening side effects? What dose is too high? Can I get sick?
I'm trying to find this info online but it's hard. Thanks so much, shroomery!
I'm pretty damn skinny and average height. Should I do it on an empty stomach btw?

You can't die but you can definitely get sick. Some people also don't have correct body chemistry for Kratom to work. Also, you shouldn't expect anything from headshop Kratom. Find an actual vendor online to sell you straight up loose lead in bulk or you are another dumbass looking for a legal high and aiding in the overall banning of Kratom.

^^ Kratom is pretty safe. It wouldn't be dangerous at that amount. Really, you would get sick, and XPup, before you could take to much, unless you did an extract, maybe possibly then it would be, IDK. Could buy in bulk for a way better deal though >>>>>>>bikhuk
ALSO, tea is much better, (if ever been kratom sick, it is the ONLY way) because it's the plant fibers that sit in the stomach, that causes people to get sick.

Having a completely empty stomach makes all the difference for me.

yeah I agree
There's no danger of OD or anything. If you take too much you will just get nauseous and throw up.

Kratom is superior to weed in every way.

I hope you are trolling.
You can't even compare the two, they have nothing in common other than they are both psychoactive drugs.

Really? You found that much difference in naseau/sick feeling from tea vs. straight powder? -Ill have to try that.
Alex man, its a tough one to answer. Everyone reacts differently to kratom and everyone reacts differently to particular strains too. I personally HAVE gotten sick of 7gs, pretty damn sick too. BUt it just depends. For some people that is a standard dose. Have some ginger on hand if your gonna try it. Also try drinking grapefruit juice prior, ppl say it potentiates it.
But I dont think its dangerous, just potential for nausea/sickness like you said. But please dont buy caps anymore. That is a rip off, just get straight powder and do it yourself.

Yeah, the tea takes away the nausea causing plant material. The hardest part of preparing it is the straining liquid. It can be frustrating/impossible without the right strainer.
I use a coffee maker with the wire mesh filter on it and....
-add kratom and a bottle of water in a pot on the stove. -add something like lemon juice to make it acidic for a better extract. -evaporate/simmer away about half of the liquid, or for 30-60 minutes,. -pore threw mesh coffee filter, and squeeze out the juices left behind. -wash out filter, place a paper coffee filter inside, and filter again. -squeeze out last drops of paper filter, and enjoy a bitter golden tea!
Seems like a lot of todo, but it's worth it to know you won't get sick.

Just to add to that recipe, I like to add the desired amount of lemon juice and add just enough water to saturate the kratom and let it sit like that for an hour or so... that way it is in a more acidic enviroment for a while. Then add water/strain.

1.2 kilograms in the mail. 8 different strains. Didn't pay much at all for it.
