Kratom saves lives
 

I am a 64 year old responsible adult and Kratom has been a Godsend for chronic pain, depression and anxiety for the last nine years. I was able to stop taking antidepressants thanks to Kratom.  The antidepressants that I had taken had horrible side effects and caused me to have to take several more medications to try and counteract the medical problems they were causing with my heart and blood pressure.  Thanks to Kratom I was able to get off of all those prescription meds and now have zero side effects. It has been a real lifesaver for me and many many other people.  I work a very physical job and have two more years to go till retirement. Kratom enables me to do my job and to do it well without pain.  Kratom has given me my life back. To criminalize Kratom would be criminal. Kratom is nothing but good. And another great thing about it is that it doesn’t zonk you out. I remain clearheaded and alert. I can’t say a single bad thing about it. Try it for yourself. You will see, there is nothing bad about it at all.
