No surprise that a centralized drug cartel would attempt to ban a substance it can't patent. It's hilarious that they even claim that their are deaths associated with Kratom. Kratom, unlike legal prescription opiates, cannot stop your breathing and cause a lethal overdose. Any death associated with kratom was actually a death caused by another substance. Its like if someone did a bunch of heroin, smoked a joint, overdosed, and calling it a marijuana related death. Banning Kratom will kill more people than it will help.

Kratom is an amazing herb, but I will not lie like some and say that it does not have a potential for abuse because it def does if used improperly. The community stood up loud for their rights in 2016, so let's hope that they do so again.
