Curious if anyone has used Kratom?

Gabbinwithu, very good statement from you, well informed response, I appreciate that! I have researched Kratom and read a number of legitimate articles. Everything has , in my opinion, made positive remarks regarding the use of Kratom. There are more individuals who use Kratom that have great results, from a natural non-chemically engineered drug. I plan to continue to research Kratom.

I have read that and it is attributed to those getting off heroine or opioid addiction. there may have been some other addiction problems. Read more articles...depending on who wrote that article you will get many different conclusions. WebMD even did a good article on it! there are no known deaths from just kratom! Please know that! There are more deaths from 5 hour energy drinks.
This plant has been used dating back to the 1800's...so further research it prior to making that kind of statement!

There is no rise in blood pressure so not too sure what you might be reading and the University of Florida is currently doing a study!
In regards to the ban, 50 Senators have signed a petition to hold off on the DEA 's ban...which is why it hasn't been reclassified yet and the kicker...they are creating a pharmaceutical that will be similar which is insane since this is a plant. Next they will ban Tumeric!

That was my purpose too of researching! I was told about it a couple months ago and after a lot of research and listening to those on their Facebook page that have had amazing results without big pharma....I decided to take a desperate leap of faith!

The DEA is trying and as of today it is still legal in most states. I think it is so sad they have the ability to take away yet another herbal remedy! I've been active in trying to let them put a face to Kratom and signing every petition out there! Contacting Senators and for me to be this proactive shows how much it has truly helped me!

The DEA didn't get it's grimy little way yet! If you have facebook, join the private group American Kratom association. As for now it is still legal in most states and I wish they would focus on some real problems like Heroin. All I can say is that nothing has given me relief prior to trying the Kratom. I had no hope for it to work and was really surprised! I've been ordering it just in case they do stop the sale of it. There is another Facebook group Kratom users (new and old). A few reputable vendors are members of the site and can assist you with what type of Kratom, and so much support! You won't believe the stories you will read and how this has been a godsend for many.
