Kratom, when taken therapeutically, could omit many of the prescribed and over the counter medication. Unfortunately, many medical professionals do not understand and are not able to prescribe Kratom.

Most individuals who use Kratom for therapeutic purposes are self-medicating, but have adapted and figured out how to use Kratom on their own. The people who are advocating for banning Kratom, do not understand the devastation that they can cause by denying access to Kratom. Most medical professionals do not advocate for natural medicine,  nor do they understand the health benefits of Kratom.

If law enforcement wants to prevent opioid crisis and fentanyl overdoses, then they should look into helping citizens with Kratom therapy.
