Being someone who suffers from constant, chronic pain from Fibromyalgia and childhood injuries, kratom has given the ability to work and be productive. I've safely used kratom products for 13 years now and know many other individuals who have also taken kratom for as long and it has bettered their lives as well. Kratom should be regulated but available in safe, tested products - not criminalized. Science has proven over and over that kratom is safe in it's natural form. What should be done is to pass the Kratom Consumer Protection Act, which is designed to regulate all kratom available to ensure it's honesty and safety.
