I researched Kratom thoroughly back in 2016.  I have kept myself from being bedridden thanks to it.  Knowing how hard FDA and DEA have tried to get this scheduled, even through WHO organization, and thankfully FACTS prevail.  Why in the world do states &/or the USA keep trying to take away something that is a safe plant?  Its safer than alcohol.  Its safer than most RX pain meds.  Any negative press has always hid the fact that the person who had an issue had other substances at the same time, and that indeed Kratom was NOT the cause of negative issue.  Historically, scientifically, factually, outlawing or scheduling this as anything more than a nature/herbal supplement is wrong.  Things that absolutely should be prevented from human use/consumption per history, science and factually, is fine all too often.  Many of the people that use this reputably sourced safe product do our research and do not take it irresponsibly.  It even has helped people no longer be addicted to "legally" prescribed opioids. Not because it is an opioid, but because it can affect receptors the same way that chocolate, cheese and breast milk can.  Stop the madness & war on this plant.
