While some report kratom can help relieve pains, depression and anxiety andHowever there are few rules around kratom, and none apply nationwide. Six states—Alabama; Arkansas; Indiana; Rhode Island; Vermont and Wisconsin—outlaw its possession and sale and some cities or counties ban retailers from stocking it.
Woods, who has treated patients with kratom addictions, recalled a patient who went from taking 7 kratom pills a day to 80 capsules within minutes of waking up. Daniel Vidrine would buy a 500-capsule bottle of kratom supplements from Whole Herbs every few days at the gas station near his home. He learned about kratom when he was looking for a remedy for anxiety and insomnia. Kratom supplements by the brand Whole Herbs are currently on sale at a gas station in Lafayette Parish, Louisiana.
“The Kratom sold in the United States is not the same Kratom leaf plucked from a plant and used as a tea in South East Asia … [it] may be contaminated, degraded, and may not be safe for human consumption,” Vidrine told The Post.He would buy a 500-capsule bottle every few days at the gas station near his home. He died in the early morning hours after Vidrine say him last.
