I was in a house fire %80 full thickness burns and was hospitalized for 7 months. That was fentynl everyday for half a year so I was physically dependent to a death sentence and when I got home kratom was a miracle for my withdrawal symptoms and took care of the pain better than the few oxycodone they sent me home with.
wow I’m so glad that you were able to get off of it and that it even works better for you! that’s awesome also I’m sorry to hear about that accident, I hope you’re doing great now
@ Cody Steele..God bless you brother 🙏 God is with us always and kratom was put on this planet by God as a medicine to help us both physically and spiritually. Never let anyone or any agency tell you otherwise. I'm so happy you found kratom and it changed your life in a positive way. Many blessings to you and yours 🙏
@Mr.fukk12 Why would he do that if it helps him in a positive way? Kratom saved him, the opiates almost killed him. It's a no brainer to remain on kratom. I'm not sure why you even asked him that.
I’ve been addicted to Xanax and opiates on separate occasions.. I’m glad to say I’ve got into fitness and I’m sober now for like 2 years and Kratom and weed have helped me fight cravings and stay off harder drugs and helped me get my life back on track.. it may sound far fetched to some but to others you will understand
can you help explain to me how it works bro? From fitness bro to another ? Does kratom really help wit opiates / painkillers ? I want to be fit and workout everyday without having to take those 😫 lmk thanks bro
@@GabeItchess there are some sites but even gas stations in my area are starting to sell it but do some research and you will be able to find some usually the white strains give you energy and green is more of energy/ relaxation and red is usually more relaxation. But yeah white strain was my favorite gave me some motivation as well as helped with pain
@@drefore2642 so there is no specific brand of these kratoms? I’m looking online but idk if it’s the right one it looks like powder . Idk if I’m looking it up right lol
@@hollowtipdraco5223 yes the fuck you can. When I first started drinking I bought a bottle didn't know how much I could actually handle and it put me in bed for 3 days. I really do wish they had recommended dosages on alcohol that would be nice. Maybe a hangover report
Plus the share holders. And I’m no genius but, if I was a low life “smart” dr. And I snicker at Kratom pro users because I know it will never pass for decades. I’m going to bet my money in anything that “helps” any addiction that makes money. Sick Stupid sick! None of those drs non have been through heroine/opiate withdrawals, none have had a major injury, none have had severe chronic depression, nor had to work 4 jobs neglecting precious sleep while in college, and it’s them that hove no clue what a life saving plant this is. And it’s them no sayers whom have no real effects from the plant, they are the ones who have the means to publish really good studies. This plant I owe many thanks to. I have Piriformis syndrome and tumors on my spine. Im in debilitating pain all day every day nonstop I can’t even sleep longer than four hours because have to get up and re-circulate blood in my legs I’ve lost two of my smallest toes on my right leg because the circulation doesn’t reach that far. I have heavy medication and Kratom works better than my prescribed six bottles of meds. It is stupid these med compare it to a kiss boo boo! I can almost guarantee these men have stock in medicine. I’m gonna go as far as to say I bet you they prescribe to their patients the same medication that they have Stocks in. The whole back-and-forth reminded me of my 6 foot tall brother playing a six-year-old a game of basketball. And the 6 foot tall person just keeps dunking in dunking on top of the six-year-old. Instead of working with the six-year-old, having a win win win situation they just want to put words together all fast because it’s not studied enough therefore it’s bad. I would love to be apart of a trial, save me $70 a month. The only bad side effect I have from Kratom is constipation, and increases redness on my skin. Sometimes I get itchy after 30 grams. I take about 20 before bed and 30 mins before that I chew 3,000mg of tums to line my stomach allowing all parts of the Kratom to fully break down in my stomach. The longer in my stomach the more it’s being absorbed. Sorry for my rant
I use it often. Have so for over a decade. And I’m a practicing physician in a thriving clinic. The dangers associated with kratom are primarily limited to its addictive nature. Anyone claiming an overdose death due to Kratom is pushing propaganda and conveniently failing to mention the loads of benzos and fentanyl also found on the toxicology report. The opioid receptor agonistic action associated with kratom is metabolized through a different pathway (protein G) that does NOT cause respiratory depression…..respiratory depression being the cause responsible for the vast majority of traditional opioid-related deaths.
In my experience, my twin brother, and gf. Talking to different doctors/getting opinion about Suboxone, testosterone replacement therapy , eating disorder meds. You can be far smarter then a doctor by a simple 10 min google search. Doctors we have talked to are not smart on a particular subject. Its insane. lol
@@cowlords13 well doctors are just like any professionals job, they can only study a specific subject and most doctors are trained to deal with physical injuries, not things like drugs. Yes, they main know the basics of it but not to an great astent. It's like going to a doctor with mouth problems, they may know how to fix a broken jaw but not how to fix your teeth.
Respectfully, maybe know how to spell something you take daily? :) It's not exactly sober, tho. If you still HAVE TO take anything, including sugar, coffee cigarettes, you're still enslaved. Jmo. :)
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 he didnt say he was sober he pretty much just said his quality of life is better because hes not taking pills everyday and he thanks kratom for that damn do i have to translate cuz I just did.
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 stfu you fucking air slave. i died 5 years ago cause i realized that its addicts like you everyday fucking drinking water and eating food. disgusting
I'm a bit older (54) and have struggled my entire life with ADD and anxiety. Now i take 5 grams of green kratom with a 10mg ritalin tab usually 4 times a day and I can't imagine feeling any happier or any more normal, life is good now.
@@back2roots779 Hardly, I get more of a buzz from a big can of energy drink than I do from 1 ritalin and a 5g dose of kratom, it just kills the anxiety and gives me a mild feeling I can only describe as pleasant, comfortable, and motivated. Yeah I'm probably somewhat dependant on it but I really don't care it beats the hell out of feeling horrible anxiety from the moment I wake up in the morning until I can get to sleep again at night. And yes I've tried countless medication/drug free methods to relieve anxiety, I've done therapy and I meditate every day twice for 30 minutes each time.
Seemed like everyone was attempting to chime in over each other. They should have regulated it a bit better as it was intended to be a debate rather than a "who is louder?" contest. But I don't watch this show very much, so I assume this is how they handle most of their controversial arguments.
Quick question if you don’t mind answering it for me because I’m trying to find a solution to my problem and see if Kratom works without having to go to rehab or inform loves one . What was it that you were addicted to? Please I would love to know the answer I’m trying to safe my life for the good . Thank you
I have been using Kratom for over 2 years now! It has helped me with my chronic pain tremendously!!!!! Prior to taking Kratom, I was a chronic pain patient for 16 years. I had to get my prescriptions refills every 30 days for 16 years!! Kratom has helped me and I haven’t needed prescription pain medications in 2 years. It is an answer to prayer!!!
I’m in the same boat. I have RA with sometimes severe pain. I’m so tired of the pain management and then dealing with the pharmacies treating me like a drug addict. In your experience it has been safe to take long term? I appreciate any advice you have.
sicsempertyrannis23 Not quite true because they are also making it almost impossible to get real pain relief for people who need it. They don’t want you using Kratom, but don’t want to treat your pain either.
Chaotic 15 deaths vs how many bloody deaths from oxy? Gimmie a break. I’d bet my house that Tylenol has also killed over 15 people. Never tried but, this was shady.
really dude it’s obviously just a scare tactic so common in this country. How many regulated products kill vast numbers every day, but the FDA won’t ban them... too much money to be made both by selling the products, and treating the problems they cause.
I have taken Kratom for years and have not had any issues. That does not mean that it has not to others. I am a grown adult and I like the ability to choose for myself what helps me. I do not need Government telling me what I can and cannot take. Kratom has helped me immensly and I never exceed the dosage I take. I have never felt like increasing the dosage like I did with Vicodin. My life is better because of Kratom.
@@christopherbarros1221kalau pengambilan yang sedikit tidak bermasalah.saya pernah lalui pengambilan dos yang banyak dua tahun lebih.iya sangat merana dan stress rasa nak gila😁awak mukin orang yang lama😂😂
@@MisterKewlz as someone who works countless hours in GMP compliance, while advocating for mental health, making sure it’s regulated, getting peoples stories out there, and pitching to congress everyday on why regulated plant medicine is better than adulterated chemicals we put into our bodies, I’m gonna tell you to suck it and shut the fuck up. Check yourself before you wreck yourself and troll somewhere else. I’m gonna keep doing what I’m doing and making sure this is available for people who need it. 😊
Been using it for back pain, anxiety, and energy for almost 7 years. No side effects. Plenty of people in the community can point you in the right direction for recommended doses especially for those just starting out. These doctors are clearly protecting their income flow and nothing more. Wouldn't let the woman speak for 10 seconds uninterrupted.
Hey I'm interested in trying kratom for pretty much the same reason you use it for but I'm still trying to find out which one to take and how much. Can you please help point me in the right direction
@@jessicawilliams3951 depends on what you want out of it. If you want the more "energetic" feeling go for a green or white vein strain, Green Malay is my personal pick. If you want a more "relaxed" feeling go for a red strain like Red Bali. Try 2 capsules first, your tolerance should be low enough
@@bigshoots1181 I take 5 size 00 capsules per dose (about 3.5 grams), 1-2 times a day. I do notice mild withdrawal symptoms if I skip a few doses, mostly just restlessness. I do get a bit constipated if I go more than a few days without.
I'm a former Marine combat veteran and 100% P&T disabled (in other words, medically retired in my 30s). Shattered my right elbow while on active duty, and over the course of 18 years I've had nine surgeries. Was diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome early 2021 (nicknamed "the suicide disease" for good reason). In layman's terms, it's a neurological disorder; the nerves in my right arm constantly send pain signals to my brain, which in turn overwhelms my central nervous system, causing myriad secondary conditions. I've been taking kratom for nearly six years, and while it has been helpful for pain management, it has also wreaked havoc on my GI system and aged my face considerably. Even worse, it changed my personality and made me much more argumentative and constantly on edge. For these reasons, I decided to stop cold turkey and am on day six. While the withdrawals have not been fun, my face is already looking better, my GI issues are improving greatly, and cognitively I just feel better. That being said, I'm still an advocate for kratom and realize how helpful it is to so many people. Just because I've had a negative experience from it doesn't mean I don't recognize the benefits. I'm not sure what I'll do for pain management, but in the meantime I seem to be doing okay.
Thank you for your service, Marine! I'm a US Army combat vet who takes Kratom for a cervical spine condition I sustained while deployed. I agree with your assessment and can confirm the effects on physical appearance and gastrointestinal issues. It doesn't alter my disposition or mood like you described, but I do imagine it could. I wish you luck in your search for pain relief and better quality of life.
The absolute opposite happened for me. It improved my GI issues, which I would have immense bloating and constant intestinal pain from what doctors were suspecting was IBS. I can now eat relatively anything, in full meals, whereas before I would eat like a bird and then feel like crap for days after. Year 5 for me here. Kratom is a life saver. Sorry you've managed to link yours to GI issues but perhaps you should change from the plant based to an extract based like MIT45 Super. The liquid is concentrated with less plant matter. The plant matter has too much cellulose which can definitely become irritant on your insides and will take more to process through your liver, hence potential in speeding up the aging process. I highly recommend that vs going to any of the doctor prescribed methods (fentanyl / benzo / opiods etc)
TRUTH and what most people don't know is that 99 percent of all the people on heroine or synthetic opiates were introduced to the drugs with prescriptions...Imagine that. Most switch to heroine once they couldn't be prescribed anymore or it became too expensive.
Initially, my son told me that he had developed an addiction to serious prescription opiods for pain. He tried Kratom. Not only did he have help with detox, it has managed his pain for YEARS. I need double knee replacements, and am a liver patient. They literally throw opiods at me, which I really don't want to go down an addiction path again. I tried kratom - it is incredible. I have had zero side effects, the pain is tolerable, I have much better sleep (not waking up every hour in pain) and you can't OD on it. How is this a bad thing? I will tell you....because Big Pharma isn't making a buck off of it.
What dosage do you do? I'm also considering taking it for my neural lyme disease. Do you build up a tolerance? So you can only take it so many times before it doesn't have any effect on you?
@@bigshoots1181 start off by taking about 2.5 grams and see how that dose effects you then you can increase your dose the next time you take it if you weren’t satisfied with your previous dosage. I’ve been taking Kratom for awhile and you do build up a tolerance but as long as you take a day or two off a week it should keep your tolerance in check. I started taking white strains in the beginning for energy but switched to red. I’ve noticed red seems to give me a relaxed, but energetic feeling at a higher dosages. Honestly red Borneo has nearly cured my anxiety, and it’s helped me work thru my pain I have working in a warehouse.
My grandmother had horrible IBS issues and can’t take antidepressants as they all tear her stomach apart. She used to not be able to go to the store without having a panic attack and leaving in the middle of shopping. She takes one gram of kratom before she leaves her house and she can function in public. I’m trying to quit kratom personally as it’s causing lack of emotion, BUT I still will always root for it because I’ve seen first hand how it helps those with chronic pain and mental illness. Forgot to add it helped me quit alcohol. I was an alcoholic for years.
But its kratom an stimulant or sedative? I live in India this is sold in normal supermarkets together with teas. I bought it thinking its matcha tea and somebody told me I would get high so I didnt take it. I was wondering what is the effect if its energizing or if it helps to relax.
I have extreme pain with arthritis and associated pain. I tried Kratom Red Vein Bali last night for the first time. I took 1/8 of a teaspoon and then this morning 1/4 of a teaspoon. My pain levels, depression and overall feelings of anxiety have subsided to the point that I am walking and virtually pain free. Now this is temporary, I get that. But as a tax paying citizen and a member of the Senior Citizen club....I am sick to death of being told what i can and cannot take to help my pain levels. I am treated like a drug addicted kid when I go to the doctors office to ask for a crappy Tylenol Three. I have to see the doctor every three months to renew a 30 day prescription and blood tests to make certain that i am not taking more of anything. GO CURE CANCER OR PARKINSON OR SOME OTHER disease. What in the hell do these doctors and pharmacy CEO's care?
Great supplement for addiction clearly, when taken properly. But, be VERY, VERY, VERY careful how far you go especially if you are not experienced in how dangerous addiction can be. Kratom is in fact very addictive if used incorrectly, and can have some pretty insane side effects, especially when abusing the liquid extracts. Key word, abuse. I used every day for 2 years, i was so confident in its safety and little side effects, i became unaware of how often or how much i was taking. it became second nature. Then it turned into $20 a day on an extract in the morning, followed by 8-10 spoon fulls after lunch up until bed time, sometimes more. the level of psychological damage the abuse has caused me is relatively extreme, although it is bearable once through the withdrawals. that being said, the withdrawals from this substance are far easier to deal with than other pain and anxiety medications, which is why it is proffered amongst the community. i do believe this is a miracle supplement, when taken correctly. But, moderation should not be left in the hands of an addict. Keep this in mind, if you don’t NEED it, don’t start it
@@chasiyyjohnson1720 to come off opiates use a red vein. Id suggest red bali or red malay for this. Red bali is the closets in effects to opiates and red malay tends to last a little longer than most strains. If youre using kratom to detox from opiates id suggest starting at about 10 grams 3 times a day. Keep in mind unless youre taking 100 grams of kratom a day then youll still experience some very minor withdrawal symptoms for a few days once you completely switch to kratom. After about a week on kratom start to lower your dosage by .5 grams a day. Go as slow as possible, if dones correctly you shouldn't experience any withdrawals during your taper. Id also suggest supplementing with agmatine and magnesium glycine. Agmatine actually reverses opiate tolerence and a hogh absorption for of magnesium will help tremendously with the anxiety and restlessness of opiate withdrawal.
Kratom saves lives! You gotta love these debates though when cigarettes are completely legal. Where is the debate on THAT? 400,000 people die a YEAR from smoking!!! ZERO from Kratom!! There really is no argument here, and unfortunately it's all about the money for those 3 guys.
Bro three guys!!that's so much. But fuck the thousand people that die from bee sting or car crashes or who die from alcohol every year They neeeed to make sure this won't hurt three stupid people, it's there life's work...that they get paid 500,000 dollars a year.
Not to mention the 'drugs available that already do what Kratom does' has caused an opioid epidemic of epic proportions. and is a huge reason why many need Kratom. What a bunch of dickbags we've let take over this country.
Was prescribed Prozac and Xanax for 3 years. Quit cold turkey because my life and personality were rapidly declining. Kratom and weed have helped me more than you could ever imagine. No one in this video truly knows what they're talking about, sadly.
@@benmirageas9076 I agree Kratom is great, but mixing it with weed literally made me lose my mind and have a psychotic episode for 4 ongoing hours where I had seizures, was hallucinating, blacking out and yelling at my friends. When I came to I didn’t know if it was all real but it was.
That's right ! That dr on panel was saying he dosnt know much about kratom so why dosnt he just stfu please . All of them talking over each other is ear wrenching . I barely made it through this stupid video . Dweeb city .
same for adderall I've been on kratom 3 years and off addys over a 1 year now because of kratom ! also kicked oxys for over 3 years now ! God pharma wants to ruin the world
Kratom helps me with sleep, stress, anxiety, and pain. I've been taking it for 6 years, all my tests have come back perfect, I'm healthy. I take it at night to help me relax, unwind, and play video games for a bit. Then I can lay down, put on some music on my phone, and go to sleep. It's that or I lay down and cry myself to sleep... I'm raising three children alone. Kratom helps me get the rest I need to be the best mom I can be.
Been addicted to benzos and in the past I struggled with extreme alcoholism. I've been doing kratom for a few months now and I'm off xanax with almost no withdrawal and I cut way down on my alcohol intake. I'd say it's been helping me
@@scotie86 Exactly i just took some kratom. Those assholes just want everyone to fall in line. We've been "winging" it for thousands of years. These fda people suck.
I was close to suicide due to pain and this stuff SAVED MY LIFE! If money is taken from big Pharma then money is taken from doctors and those are the real drug dealers! Doctors get huge pay bonuses for every pharmaceutical drug they give us including vaccines. It’s nothing but a money game.
Kratom has saved my life. Helps my anxiety and my depression, and makes my arthritis bearable. I've tried so many other things including prescription medication. Kratom should NOT be taken off the market, however, people who want to try it need to do the sensible thing and spend time doing research on it.
but yet everyday we hear a commercial "if you or a loved one have taken ***** and have been diagnosed with cancer you may be entitled to money" all those were APPROVED by the fda. so... what was their point??
@JB not really. It must have been fda approved as it’s a jury burn drug or something. Idk if it just wasn’t known that NDMA can cause cancer or what happened. But the Johnson and Johnson baby powder situation is a cosmetic and did not require fda approval.
I've been clean from 40 mg hydro a day habit for 5 years. It saved my life, if you take too much you barf... its educating yourself on dosage. I got my house, husband, and family all on track. I dont even think about pills anymore. Regulate it fine... but dont take it away from those its helping. These people clearly have no clue the potential this plant has to save people. It's like watching a cave man look at the moon for the first time and throwing rocks at it..... sad
That guy has the most punchable face and logic. The type of guy that talks down to you with slander and outdated theory.. in your house, at dinner, in front of your children.
I'm a former opiate addict. I decided to try Kratom and I liked that it had an initial endorphin "rush" that quickly dissipated into mild calming effect. In meeting other Kratom users I met many who were using a quarter ounce or more at a time to get really high on it. I was ridiculed for my 3 small scoops. Now I've built up a resistance to it. I would like a Kratom product with a lab certified amount of the active ingredient.
For the bald man. Thank you so very much for intervening on my behalf, as an American I am a dumb fuck who doesn't have the ability to make my own choices in life. Once again, thank you!
Let's take this scenario to another level. If I was previously sticking needles in my arm to shoot up some shit that is a little heroin mixed with God only knows what, how the fuck can you say anything about me eating a natural plant that only has been grounded into a fine powder, with no additives? No chemicals being used to extract a drug from it. I mean, if I'm sticking fucking needles in my arm just to feel normal and productive, then how is it a bad thing, or dangerous, for me to take this instead. Making Kratom illegal is just going to make people go back to heroin and other Poppy based products. I pay $10 an ounce for Kratom, and it lasts me about 4 or 5 days. So for $30 I'm set all week till payday. That same $30 would need to be spent each day for heroin. This asshole is the same kind of guy that probably pops 4 ibuprofen at a time because he thinks it's safe to do. Kratom saves lives. The people who HAVE died while using Kratom either take way way too much, or have some other health issue like liver problems, or other medication in their system. I eat between 4 and 6 grams all at once, and have been doing it for about 5 months straight now. It taste like shit, but I don't get any aftertaste. I hate people like this.
I literally just took kratom a couple of hours ago to treat my alcohol withdrawal, my liver pain has subsided and I can now hold down food without vomiting every hour.
Glad to hear you have found relief! It is a great compound for some, however if I may, I would suggest still getting a blood test to see what your liver enzyme levels are. Kratom may treat symptoms but might not actually fix the issue if that makes sense. Hope your liver heals up well and you are never alone on the road to recovery! Good energy being sent your way 🙏🏻
@Money Man depends on if you are new to it or not. For someone just starting out, typically a light dose would be 3 grams or less. A medium dose would be approx. 4 to 6 grams. A high dose would be roughly anything above 7 grams. Everyone's body is different though and there are many different strains with their own unique benefits.
@Money Man honestly the potency of different strains is different for people based on opinion, but generally speaking I would say either Red Strain Bali for sedation, and White Strain Maeng Da for stimulation.
Saved my friend's life while he has Cirrhosis. he couldn't stop drinking and was literally knocking on death's door but refused to take it, things got so bad, I spoon fed him his first dose, he stopped drinking on the spot.
I have serious pain with arthritis, both pSA and Ra. The VA cut us off of all pain meds unless you are terminal. This Kratom helps along with Tumeric. Some days I can't hardly walk if the humidity is going up, rain is coming in, or winter time. I moved from Kansas to AZ just to get the weather relief, so yes, I need relief.
Fr... they say it needs to be studied more but won’t do anything about it. They’re just passively dismissing that statement without saying how they really feel so they can stall the process.
Why is nobody talking about the fact that kratom has a built in anti abuse mechanism? Take too high a dose and your body says nope and throws up and feel miserable for a day, reminding you to not take too much.
Anti-abuse mechanism? Get the hell out of here. This stuff is highly addictive and I personally know from taking it the last 3 to 4 months and being a prior opiate addict. So addictive in fact did I found myself having to take one when I went to sleep after month two Or I would get the bed jerks craving it
@@warzonewrath2751 lol you weren’t addicted to the kratom, it sounds like you were using it to ease your opiate withdrawal symptoms. If you stopped taking it then the easing would cease. Opiate withdrawals don’t go away quickly. Get out of here with that misinformation
tell that to my FREIND, whose husband is addicted to it and is in psychosis in debt over $20,000 and is wandering the streets talking to himself and nobody knows where he's at now yes some people it doesn't affect in the negative way some people it does if you have heart disease it can kill you. I guess it helps some people but some people it can hurt with any type of medication or herbal supplements some people do great on peyote and then some people don't some people are allergic the penicillin and then some people die from it
Extradimensionalmindstatee completely agree this is not dangerous,vitamins have caused me horrible side effects this is not something you chow down. Opioids are ruthless!
It's non toxic. You can ingest the hell out of it and be fine. But as a human, you have to determine your own dose. I'm on the coffee during the day and kratom at night shit. I get by.
I take kratom everyday. Im a recovered heroin addict. After 2 years of sobriety and cleanliness i was still suffering from the damage the decade of drug abuse has done to my body. Kratom keeps me going..
Not sure if you will see this but I am just wanting to start using this. To avoid wd .. can you recommend how much you took and often ?? And does jt really get rid of the wd symptoms ??

Thats so good to hear ! Im about to kick off Subutex and i really hope that Kratom will help. I never tried it but so many comments say it works. This sounds to me like a miracle plant then
Kratom has been in my life for 8 years now! I use it every fee days, usually never any days in a row, and to help people understand what I mean I now call it "microdosing", because folks understand that these days. What's special about me (not really) is that I don't have severe issues, but I do have some moderate or mild autoimmune problems that it helps with. It's also amazing for period cramps, injuries, or just generally feeling good! You don't need to be coming off opiates to enjoy kratom (although I'm not at all dismissing the impact kratom has for that). You don't need to be in severe pain either (again, not dismissing), you can just be a more regular person who enjoys it. Take breaks and don't make it a big deal, try to keep your dose low. It's a health booster :)
Amber Mikrut if they truly cared about our health, cigarettes and alcohol would be banned. Benzos and opiates wouldn’t be prescribed like candy. Just because it’s legal, doesn’t mean it’s safe. And just because it’s illegal, doesn’t mean it’s dangerous.
@@ST-xw3cv benzos are fucking wild man. I’ve used them on occasion, like no more than twice a month. There’s not a substance on earth that I use and have more respect for than benzos, and really anything that affects GABA receptors (alcohol included). I’ve witnessed WDs first hand... and damn.
What "The Doctors" show has cut out is probably the best part of this whole segment. You have two people who shared their testimony about how Kratom has positively helped their lives. Kratom HAS helped many people with their addiction and depression. The fact that you can't say "it helped me" on a medical level is bogus. Tylenol killed 150 people last year and you don't hear anyone shouting regulation with that. Simply because they're already making money from it. This is why they're talking about regulating Kratom - MONEY.
Last I heard its against the law to slap a patent on a plant and start calling it you're invention. Opiate treatment is so fucking prehistoric and terribly harmful. If you're ever unlucky enough to get into this situation ask your doctor to talk you through non opiate detoxes before he starts ramming subutex or methadone down your throat. If you do think you need opiate treatment then ask about alternatives with shorter half lives and please try not to stay on you're dose for too long.
That just sounds fucking dumb. I know what that shit does to you. I would never say that it's bad to take, but I know first hand that it makes you a little out of it. Eating Kratom to go driving will only help out the rest of humanity because at least we'll have to worry about one less idiot in the world when you blackout after eating kratom and accidentally taking sleepy meds with it or something.
El' Duderino, while that last statement of yours has no actual proven basis: I get what you're saying. I thought you were talking about getting loaded on kratom and then driving
Camden Castillo >blackout after eating kratom Small doses of kratom, I'm talking 1-3 grams, are stimulating. That is exactly what laborers use it for in Asia when they chew the leaves. LABOR. Ya fuckin' moron.
Flac Or Gtfo, dude wtf is your problem. I didn't actually mean that a person can blackout with kratom alone. I'm just saying that I know from experience that when you take alot of kratom (3-4 grams) and drink beer or take medication that makes you drowsy, it will have a very strong effect on the person. I was using hyperbole and I'm sorry that you didn't get that. I also use kratom most days that I work because it helps me get through my days. Calm down down bro. No need to get your panties in a bunch. Although I suppose my first response was a bit hostile in itself.... oops
Flac Or Gtfo i find it funny how he calls himself an educated doctor with enough confidence to tell people what to ingest and doesnt know how grams work...GRAMS! Universal scientific weight measurement.
5 years ago I was in jail for problems related to my alcohol and drug addiction. Today I have been clean from alcohol and heroin and the business I started last year is going great. Kratom has played a huge role on helping make lifestyle changes and lead a sane, healthy , and productive life. The interest big Pharma has in shutting down kratom is self evident and has been pointed out in these comments. The reason the "Intervention" guy is on the panel is because the addictions treatment industry stands to have their ineffective treatment models challenged. 12 step and complete abstinence work for some people and should be a choice. But if saving lives and helping addicts is REALLY the most important part of treating addictions then the opposition to alternative treatment models is at best misguided and at worst absolutely criminal . It makes me sick watching the hypocrisy of established institutions put their machine into action whenever their knowledge, money, or power is at stake . When the message from individual addicts is "This works and it literally saved my life" , their answer is "WE DON'T CARE"
I've used kratom since I was 14 I'm 26 now, had no serious health issues and never had a bad experience with it. It has helped me through many tough times as well as gave me the motivation to get in shape. I use it mainly for focus because I have adhd and it helps tremendously. I hate pharmaceutical drugs and the way they make me feel not to mention the damage they do to your liver.
that's awesome! which strains/brand did you use? I've never been diagnosed or anything, but always struggled with focus in studies, n getting in shape (never was out of shape per say, but never was consistent n worked out either etc...) so i'd be willing to give it a shot.
@@AnotherBangaTV Green Maeng Da is best for focus, or basically any white strain but my favorite is Trainwreck by boosted kratom which is a blend of all three types. Your local smoke store should have it if you don't want to order it online and wait.
I'm actually looking into this for my 14 year old son and 12 year old daughter. My son has severe ADHD and my daughter has severe anxiety. I was concerned about the lack of research into children using this. Have you talked to others who share your success?
@@laris4398 not sure if you were asking me, but for my pain I use any red vein. In my personal experience, all the red veins are essentially the same for me. For mood boost, anxiety, and a bit of an energy jolt i find white vein strains preferable. Again, for me, all white veins are more or less the same.

I’m 34 and I can’t remember the last time I went a month without alcohol. It’s been at least 14 years of drinking every week. Kratom has take my anxiety away. I have hope to not drink ever again because of Kratom.
Marie M that’s great, and I applaud hind to not making excuses. There was a lot of health problems that come with regular long term use. Please don’t be ignorant to the risk, they are noteworthy
I need some advice if u don’t mind since u were addicted to alcohol were u ever given Suboxone? I have been taking it for years and want off of it but don’t know if Kratom will help with the withdrawals. I ordered some before from a reputable company and it did nothing😩Do u think the suboxone blocked it?
Sylvanna Mitrevska well I ,myself, am not a alcoholic. However, I do smoke herbs (peppermint, mugwort, lavender) they are much more cooling and some relaxing than weed or tobacco. It’s more of a calming and relaxer for me. And non addiction. I’d be the first to recommend it for you. Because I’d hate to know you jumped from one substance to another. As for Kratom, I’ve had it before and it works. But can also be additive if with regular use. You can order dried herbs on amazon. I recommend growing them😚, drying them, and smoking them or 🍵 tea to give you that accomplishment feeling. Or just go on amazon for like $10 for 3 ounces. Check on the video on TH-cam from 420 science on smokable herbs with hempsly (another youtuber)
you cannot patent a plant and this is the big issue for regulation . i take kratom for pain and i was on oxycodone and morphine prior . kratom works and has far less side effects then opiods . you cannot get wasted on Kratom and if you do too much then you just feel nauseous and you wont ever take that much again . think of it like coffee . no one ever told you how much coffee you have to use but you know what will happen if you drink too much ...... same shit but this works for pain
I’ve taken Kratom for years and have had both negative effects (withdrawal, overdoses, and sickness) and positive. I use it everyday day all day and have gotten sick from it and felt good from it. I choose to keep using it.
Fabricant: "supplements aren't supposed to do anything". Wow for someone who runs the NPA that is a deplorable statement. I think the American people need to ban together and form the first NATURAL PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY. There is a black hole for any traditional medicine in this country and I'm sick of it. This shit REALLY WORKS AND WORKS TO WELL FOR THEIR LIKING THATS THE PROBLEM!!!!!
Yeah Kratom is literally is most def a troll. Ban doesn't go thru and suddenly on October 4th the propagation of propaganda makes his account...riiigght. If you could call a herb medicinal in this day n age then yohimbine, kava, kanna, akuamma, and kratom would wipe out all the pain meds, muscle relaxants, anxiety and depression, ptsd, basically half of all Pharma profit. Phuck Pharma
Adam Mason yeah what the hell is up with that.? He's literally making an argument AGAINST the effectiveness of supplements. He's saying if any supplement does what it claims then it should be a drug. This jerk should lose his high standing position immediately.
A scam until you yourself benefit from it. A young healthy person with no health issues like yourself has no reason to seek alternative treatments. Vitamin D is a supplement, as is vitamin B12. Yet it's prescribed regularly because deficiencies lead to more serious health consequences. Please continue to argue your points, but don't be surprised when you or a loved one need one of these "bunk" supplements to improve their health.
Kratom is Literally Heroin, you are calling other people butt hurt, but you are on every single kratom video on TH-cam attacking it like your life depends on it. If anyone is way too worked up and "butt hurt" over any of this, it's you. Take a 5 minute break from the internet and chill out man. Jesus...
Adam Mason, he has been constantly showing up on almost every video in regards to kratom. He's basically obsessed with this plant for whatever reason and this ban delay is destroying his life. It's all he does. His entire existence is nothing more than trolling kratom on TH-cam. It's the strangest thing I have ever witnessed.
From my experience, it doesn't take long to build up a tolerance and snag some really bad withdrawals. I have difficulty understanding how people use it daily but I can see it being good if used in conjunction with other methods. Say 2- 3x a week using kratom and 4x a week delta 8 to manage a chronic condition. I don't think the issue is black or white. And I think it can be really helpful. But it can get out of hand quickly if not (somewhat) closely monitored. And of course, depends on medication interactions and your own personal biology so experiment but do so with caution. If you feel even a twinge of the next day weirdness - ease up. Its not worth that restless legs/arms + extreme insomnia + breathing issues + unique version of depression (and I struggle with really bad chronic depression/anxiety...this was its own unique form of torment).
"4x a week delta 8 to manage a chronic condition. " You are such a complete and total moron. Delta 8? Any other chinese mystery chemicals that you would like to endorse, you dumbshit? People have been taking kratom for thousands of years in the parts of the world where it grows. Delta 8 was just invented in a chinese lab a few years ago. You're fucking stupid for taking that shit.
I struggled with that at first as well. I will say this, it should be taken like an SSRI. Don't immediately quit while on a regulated dose. Learn what 'activates' your baseline. i.e. 2 grams every 4 to 6 hours. Yes, you will start to feel like shit if you go cold turkey but that is maybe 1/20th or 1/100th of how bad any other opiod withdrawal is and you won't die from the kratom withdrawal like you may from the opiods. Slight body chill and maybe some irritability at most was all I got even on my hardest dose of 20 grams daily when I was still uneducated in its use. I am much much lower on my kratom use now, and regulate to my single dose every 4 to 6 hours. The timeframe fluctuates based on other factors such as diet, so hence I say 4 to 6 hours. Some days I take even less. Some days I need a double dose to start, but then let myself skip my next dose because I feel normalized/good. That's the baseline tactics I use anyway. I find extracts work best, MIT45 Super is my go to as I buy it in bulk and just dose out half capfuls. It's allowed me to move through my constant pain and the otherwise debilitating anxiety I would live through without it. Kratom is a life saver for anyone using it correctly.
@@bigfirepop your routine is just for addicts. there are a lot of people that experience very minimal withdrawals from kratom even after long term use. I quit after ten years and my withdrawals were restless leg syndrome for 3-4 days. The people that do have bad withdrawals are the people that started taking kratom to get off some other drugs. Kratom just delays the withdrawal from those drugs and makes it different, but it doesn't erase it. And kratom isn't comparable to SSRI's. Kratom doesn't have the side effects of suicide and turning into a mass shooter. And no one should ever take kratom extracts. Just because kratom is mild doesn't mean the extracts are. Cocaine is just coca leaf extract and it's a whole different animal than chewing coca leaves.
I got hooked on kratom and started taking 2-5 doses a day to help me deal with anxiety and get through work shifts for about 6-8 months straight, and let me tell you the withdrawals were MISERABLE. I became super depressed, full of anxiety no appetite couldn't sleep and the worst was the restless leg syndrome. This being said I think kratom is amazing and very beneficial if used in moderation and under the right circumstances!! Do your research and find out what works best for you! If you have an impulsive or addictive personality then kratom can cause problems... if you have self discipline then Kratom can be very beneficial :) love yall
your experiences are the most accurate i've seen so far in the comments. this is the reality of it its a drug like everything else with withdrawals. stuff is great but lets not pretend its something else than it is haha
Exact same thing is happening to me. The withdrawals are intense! If i didnt have a baby to take care of it would be easier to get off. Im hooked and about to go to detox center but a part of me still wants to take it to cope with mental illness. The huge problem is it DOES help depression and anxiety but you also ADD problems. Lile addiction and getting in a very bad mood when your coming down. My family is suffering from it.... Dont take it if your an addict. I was fine for several years then my body got so used to it now im physically dependant and it sucks. I also take it every single day in high doses
the best thing for kratom withdrawals hands down is kava. it's similar to kratom but has a reverse tolerance meaning when you start taking more of it you feel less and when you take less you feel more. you can stop cold turkey and literally experience no withdrawals.
Just how I felt coming off! So nice to see others who went through it. I took it for years. Restless leg syndrome was horrible! My stomach was a mess. It did help my depression and ADD but over time it started to change my personality with the highs and lows it brings you.
I’m addcited to everything. The doctor in this video is wrong. For the first time in awhile I’m not smoking weed today because Keaton gave me the anxiety relief weed does. Keaton is the worst thing for the pharmaceutical industry. No wonder they’re scared. 🇺🇸
PLEASE show me a single case of someone hospitalized BECAUSE of Kratom... Correlation does not mean causation. These suits are incredible disingenuous and shady.
@@trulyblessed8767 the dosages for kratom are in the grams, even with the powders how did you end up in the hospital on MILLIGRAMS. That's absurd. Your kratom was heavily tainted.
Kratom has been a miracle worker for my ADD, anxiety and depression. Granted it only lasts 5 hours, it allows me to get whatever I need done around the house
@@byesinge damn dude thats concerning honestly. Ive sometimes gotten this thing where my heart gets off beat while falling asleep and i wake back up. That happens when i take a big dose, so i can believe theres negative sides to kratom. Wasnt really saying there werent, but as far as drugs go i gotta admit it is a pretty tame one.
maxo Physical dependence is a concern. The people saying that it’s not physically and mentally additive are lying or misinformed. And they’re making Kratom users look bad, because it’s very obviously NOT true. We need to be real about kratom. Both sides. It’s useful. It’s beneficial. But it’s still addictive. That being said, so is alcohol.
Kratom is addictive. I took it for a year and rotated it and still was dependent. It is a addictive substance. Taking it everyday all day is going to hurt you
Well, I work in a detox as a registered nurse and I haven’t seen a person come in there yet that was bothered by Kratom is certainly is a better alternative than opioids.
Simply traded one addiction for another. Its as simple as that. Eventually you'll need to find a substitute for kratom. Seems like everyone learns the hard way with regard to K.
Forreal I was doing pills so bad to the point when I didn’t have it I would go through bad withdrawal. When I heard about kratom I started to take it and been clean for 3 years idk what they are talkin about
I've been an addict for over 20 years and on suboxone for the last 3 years..I've tried methadone before also trying to get off opioids...Nothing worked until I found kratom, I was able to stop taking suboxone cold turkey with absolutely no withdraws at all over 6 months ago...Kratom is a cousin to the coffee plant so why is the FDA trying to class it as an opioid? Opioids come from poppies, the very poppies that our government is so worried about guarding so that big pharma can keep poisoning people with their synthetic drugs ...I am an adult and if I choose to treat myself without the FDA or big pharma it should be up to me.
Denise Yes please preach this! I am so sick of the dang government telling everybody what they should or should not put in their bodies. I always say that if women have a right to their own bodies by having abortions, then what's it any different if people want to medicate themselves? It's our own choice and our free will.
No withdrawals? That seems little absurd. Even at 8 gram doses I was still experiencing 50% withdrawals. On day 9 and still not outta the woods. I will say that everyone is different tho.
Christopher Pooler everyone has different tolerances it work super well for me too. After 8 years of perks to kratom little pain one day shits then good.
Jeremy Doe haha had not even realised that! that shows they haven't actually got a clue about this, they're utterly uneducated about anything other than drugs
I am 34 years old and just try to for the first time because I’ve been visiting Florida for a few weeks and I was driving around and noticed they had these kava bars so I checked out a few. While doing so they each had drinks made with Kratom as well. So I tried this seltzer type drink they had. I got a euphoric feeling definitely a more creative mind. I would say it energize me. Plus I am very knowledgeable about many different herbs. I’ve been studying herbalism for several years and I have a apothecary. However I didn’t know anything about Kratom. Last night unfortunately I drank just a little bit of what I had left of that drink around 10 PM at night and I was wired all night and couldn’t sleep till about maybe 5 AM and I feel like shit today. I felt super hyper alert. I also ate some dark chocolate last night so that could’ve added to it as dark chocolate is known to have caffeine. I really smoke marijuana anymore because it also gives me insomnia. I enjoy the creativity it creates and helps to open my mind however not sleeping at all it’s usually not worth it. I had a feeling that it had some type of stimulant affect because it is a leaf therefore almost similar to a Tea. The bar that I went to also had several different colors such as red yellow or green and one was said to be more energizing and uplifting and the other was to be more relaxing which was the red color which is what I tried. I think that is possibly misleading or incorrect because just like marijuana whether it’s sativa or Indica despite the purported different affects of relaxation or mind stimulation it is still the same substance. Just a different strain. So with Kratom I believe no matter what if you are hardwired a certain way it’s going to affect you in that way. I see comments of people getting off Suboxone for this drug or herb. Good for them. I’ve never had a problem with addiction to opiates. I was looking for it for help with inflammation and arthritis as I fractured my hand in several places and never healed correctly. I also have pretty bad social anxiety and I’ve been in a severe depression because of other traumatic experiences I had. No matter WHAT effects I guarantee these are not as bad as antidepressants or anxiety medication such as clonzapam or trazadone or sertraline. That stuff makes me sooo tried and yawning. No matter what, if it’s natural in its natural form like kratom. As long as ppl don’t abuse it it’s okay in moderation. It’s those teenagers taking handfuls and constantly that are idiots trying to get messed up off of it that would cause ill effects. Which tbh would’ve probably been me in HS. I was smoking weed all the time, abusing prescription drugs like vicodin and adderall. But def not an addict now and alll the ppl that say it’s helped them kick alcohol or heroin or suboxone I have Zero compassion for. If your only excuse is emotional use as in those vices gtfoh. Most addicts are entitled rich kids that haven’t had jobs so they’ve been privileged to sit on their ass and numb themselves. Now if you have real pain like me, hand constantly hot to touch from inflammation and arthritis then it makes sense to alleviate it. It’s an herb and plant. Just like weed. It should be legal with warnings. Most all prescription drug companies want to ban these because they can’t patent a plant- so instead they synthesize it down and put a name on it “kratomone” or “kratozone “ and then they can divvy it out for 1000x the cost.
Lol yup. My dumb ass about 3 years ago or so, had mistaken 1oz for 10g. Took the whole ounce. I'm still alive. Just horrible shakes, hot face, dizzy, eye tremors. That kratom had been dumped into my coffee and taken at once. Know how many capsules you'd have to pop all at once to DIE FROM KRATOM LOL
I tried to quit drinking for years.. On top of having anxiety and panic attacks. The with draws I had the first time quiting was absolutely terrible. Now the 2nd go round.. I was told by a very experienced nurse to take kratom and when I tried it.. I was able to quit drinking cold turkey with NO side effects! Just shows how the world we live in puts money first rather than the health of our people.
I used kratom for 2 years and all I can say is it is incredibly addicting and the longer you use it the more you need it and want it. It's also pretty expensive. I finally decided enough was enough and let me tell you I'm an alcoholic and was an opiate addict I've been sober from that for 8 years. When I decided to kick kratom it was literally hell for least two weeks I've never felt so horrible in my entire life. Definitely not worth taking that stuff unless you are going to use it for the rest of your life. I literally thought I was going to die.
One of my work buddies was taking meth and heroin. Would also take like 10-12 kratoms a day. He got fired. I can’t work with a dude who is constantly high.
U can buy it by the Kilo (2.2lbs) for 50$ online. Even cheaper if u order it from a grower in Indonesia. Kilos as little as 30-40$ a piece ... Just so u know.
No it feels like a shitty opiate like tramadol. Some people go and buy boxes of extract. Use like 60 bucks daily. People find out its shitty feeling and go back to using
Why didn't anyone argue the fact that hundreds/thousands of drugs that have been studied and regulated are found to be dangerous/lethal and is the main cause of this very discussion, ie opiods.
Big pharma will forever openly endorse far worse and actual damaging drugs to get people hooked and reel in cash. Kratom isn’t what helped kill my dad, that was legal opioids they overprescribed him 🤷🏻♂️
vphathom, Yes, Gabapentin is a 'controlled substance' and some people not only have horrific side effects from it, but people who have taken it regularly say the withdrawal is way worse than opiates!
the reason I ask ?? I am prescribed Gabapentin,, I forget to take it all the time, some times, 8 days will go by before I remember to take it. I really feel its a waste of time it don't help much if any. I have had 6 spinal surgery's
that's like complaining because coffee doesn't come with dosage information. kratom is very mild, like the caffeine and ephedrine pills they used to sell before they made them illegal. and if you take a lot of it to try to get high, it just makes you feel sick.
He speaks of credibility and regards the claim that Kratom is a supplement as laughable. I do agree that Kratom is a supplement in perhaps non-legal and non-scientific conversations alone, however, it is psychoactive and most certainly a drug. But that is mostly irrelevant; there are many drugs which are legal and can be bought over the counter, and many of them have been proven to cause substantial harm to individuals and to society. I shouldn't have to make that list for you. Credibility and laughability? Let's have a discussion about the federal agencies which are tasked with the regulation of drugs. Should Kratom be studied more extensively? As a user, I say absolutely. Should it be regulated? Of course. But the DEA, which derives its legitimacy and authority by law and certainly not by competence, has no goddamn business getting their filthy, greedy tendrils around something with such potential for benefits anywhere near Kratom. What exactly were the plans to regulate Kratom? List it as a Schedule I narcotic. What does Schedule I indicate? No medical benefits and strict penalties for use and possession. Such a proposal is utterly ridiculous, and demonstrates the obvious fact that they either have no idea what they're doing, or that they have an agenda to criminalize anything that could be counterproductive to profits and incarceration rates.
Well said I love this so much and it has helped me a bit with my stupidity. That's right Bryan L. Morrison influenced a feeling within me, im sure there were chemical reactions going on and... suddenly I felt... slightly hopeful for humanity and a bit understood. I am making that claim and now.... it may very well be a drug. How do we package that? ah... never mind, it's the enemy and should be regulated, criminalized because i should only have physiological things happen that are sold to me by "them" and taxed. Sooooooooo angry when they dont get their piece.
NeWarKREPPAnj yeah, I'm in Florida right now but leaving for Idaho soon. I live offgrid now.. lived in north Newark for 30 years... use kratom to detox off whatever opiate you're on, about 1 heaping teaspoon... you will feel good while the harsher drug flushes out of your body.. after a week, take less kratom until you don't need it ... done deal... once you body is used to the kratom and you slowly cut it down , the withdraw is WEAK... EASY... if you're coming off subs then use the kratom for 2 or 3 weeks before you cut down. Sub stays in the system much longer than dope... you will know when the sub is out of your body because you will wake up before getting 8 hours of sleep (kratom last for about 6 hours) ... wake up, take your kratom and you'll be good to go....when I was coming off subs, I woke up on day 4 at 430am and I knew the sub was flushed.. every day after that I went to sleep at 11pm (take kratom right before bed) and I woke up at 5am every day because the kratom started losing it's power.... it's great because it's basically just a weak opiate that you can buy in the store ! I didn't believe it would work but it does 100%.. it also kicks in FAST (about 15-30 minutes) buy the powder and get a big bag ! White is speedy, green is midrange, red is dopey .. I used the white and green...
The Loose Moose North Newark huh? My great grandmother had a house on 1st st. for forever right across the street from the spires, you may have known or heard of my family, it's a big family, the McDaniels?
as someone who has taken kratom daily from 2018 to 2024 my concern with kratom is the levels of heavy metals in the powder being sold (lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium, etc) combined with the dosages people are taking. you should always get lab tested kratom and look at the test results. stuff like lead and arsenic can build up in the body with chronic use and cause problems. i'm trying to lower my dose as much as possible but kratom has given me tangible benefits for depression, pain, anxiety, etc, that i really appreciate. i just hope i'm not wrecking my body by taking like 20 grams daily, recently i've been noticing hair loss and adhd-like symptoms
There's no "recommended dosage" on the back of liquor bottles.
that's a dam good point
Very good point
Excellent observation
Good one man! R u really carot top?
For once i an agree ! 💯

Dude your a special kind of stupid
got damn got 2mins into this vid and realised I wasn't learning a got damn thing about Kratom.

Right all they said was stop it
They're just bickering like kids n fear mongering

I was in a house fire %80 full thickness burns and was hospitalized for 7 months. That was fentynl everyday for half a year so I was physically dependent to a death sentence and when I got home kratom was a miracle for my withdrawal symptoms and took care of the pain better than the few oxycodone they sent me home with.
wow I’m so glad that you were able to get off of it and that it even works better for you! that’s awesome also I’m sorry to hear about that accident, I hope you’re doing great now
That’s why they want to make it illegal - they can’t profit off of it!!
We’re you able to get off the kratom tho?
@ Cody Steele..God bless you brother 🙏 God is with us always and kratom was put on this planet by God as a medicine to help us both physically and spiritually. Never let anyone or any agency tell you otherwise. I'm so happy you found kratom and it changed your life in a positive way. Many blessings to you and yours 🙏
@Mr.fukk12 Why would he do that if it helps him in a positive way? Kratom saved him, the opiates almost killed him. It's a no brainer to remain on kratom. I'm not sure why you even asked him that.
I’ve been addicted to Xanax and opiates on separate occasions.. I’m glad to say I’ve got into fitness and I’m sober now for like 2 years and Kratom and weed have helped me fight cravings and stay off harder drugs and helped me get my life back on track.. it may sound far fetched to some but to others you will understand
Which kratom did u use?
can you help explain to me how it works bro? From fitness bro to another ? Does kratom really help wit opiates / painkillers ? I want to be fit and workout everyday without having to take those 😫 lmk thanks bro

@@GabeItchess there are some sites but even gas stations in my area are starting to sell it but do some research and you will be able to find some usually the white strains give you energy and green is more of energy/ relaxation and red is usually more relaxation.

@@RoadToJoy 😂😂😂😂
Marijuana and Kratom puts big Pharms pocketbook at risk.
K Williams EXACTLY!
That’s what it’s all about the fact of the matter is these types of things are ONLY illegal because it affects big pharma
This exactly.
Bingo !!!!! And we supposed trust our gov. Lol
Plus the share holders. And I’m no genius but, if I was a low life “smart” dr. And I snicker at Kratom pro users because I know it will never pass for decades. I’m going to bet my money in anything that “helps” any addiction that makes money. Sick
Stupid sick! None of those drs non have been through heroine/opiate withdrawals, none have had a major injury, none have had severe chronic depression, nor had to work 4 jobs neglecting precious sleep while in college, and it’s them that hove no clue what a life saving plant this is. And it’s them no sayers whom have no real effects from the plant, they are the ones who have the means to publish really good studies.
This plant I owe many thanks to. I have Piriformis syndrome and tumors on my spine. Im in debilitating pain all day every day nonstop I can’t even sleep longer than four hours because have to get up and re-circulate blood in my legs I’ve lost two of my smallest toes on my right leg because the circulation doesn’t reach that far. I have heavy medication and Kratom works better than my prescribed six bottles of meds. It is stupid these med compare it to a kiss boo boo!
I can almost guarantee these men have stock in medicine. I’m gonna go as far as to say I bet you they prescribe to their patients the same medication that they have Stocks in.
The whole back-and-forth reminded me of my 6 foot tall brother playing a six-year-old a game of basketball. And the 6 foot tall person just keeps dunking in dunking on top of the six-year-old. Instead of working with the six-year-old, having a win win win situation they just want to put words together all fast because it’s not studied enough therefore it’s bad.
I would love to be apart of a trial, save me $70 a month. The only bad side effect I have from Kratom is constipation, and increases redness on my skin. Sometimes I get itchy after 30 grams. I take about 20 before bed and 30 mins before that I chew 3,000mg of tums to line my stomach allowing all parts of the Kratom to fully break down in my stomach. The longer in my stomach the more it’s being absorbed.
Sorry for my rant
I use it often. Have so for over a decade. And I’m a practicing physician in a thriving clinic. The dangers associated with kratom are primarily limited to its addictive nature. Anyone claiming an overdose death due to Kratom is pushing propaganda and conveniently failing to mention the loads of benzos and fentanyl also found on the toxicology report. The opioid receptor agonistic action associated with kratom is metabolized through a different pathway (protein G) that does NOT cause respiratory depression…..respiratory depression being the cause responsible for the vast majority of traditional opioid-related deaths.

@@back2roots779 Hardly, I get more of a buzz from a big can of energy drink than I do from 1 ritalin and a 5g dose of kratom, it just kills the anxiety and gives me a mild feeling I can only describe as pleasant, comfortable, and motivated. Yeah I'm probably somewhat dependant on it but I really don't care it beats the hell out of feeling horrible anxiety from the moment I wake up in the morning until I can get to sleep again at night.

I have been using Kratom for over 2 years now! It has helped me with my chronic pain tremendously!!!!! Prior to taking Kratom, I was a chronic pain patient for 16 years. I had to get my prescriptions refills every 30 days for 16 years!! Kratom has helped me and I haven’t needed prescription pain medications in 2 years. It is an answer to prayer!!!
I’m in the same boat. I have RA with sometimes severe pain. I’m so tired of the pain management and then dealing with the pharmacies treating me like a drug addict. In your experience it has been safe to take long term?
I appreciate any advice you have.
The word REGULATE means how can we get money from this.
Undercover Brother Exactly. It’s that simple.
sicsempertyrannis23 Not quite true because they are also making it almost impossible to get real pain relief for people who need it. They don’t want you using Kratom, but don’t want to treat your pain either.
Exactly
That is retarted. Spice was unregulated and it makes people literal retards.
Exactly and how much can we overcharge for it?
15 Kratom deaths but it was because of other drugs, they just happened to have kratom in their system
Chaotic 15 deaths vs how many bloody deaths from oxy? Gimmie a break. I’d bet my house that Tylenol has also killed over 15 people. Never tried but, this was shady.
💯💯💯
really dude it’s obviously just a scare tactic so common in this country. How many regulated products kill vast numbers every day, but the FDA won’t ban them... too much money to be made both by selling the products, and treating the problems they cause.
really dude, alcohol is the most evil and its 100% legal. Just sayin..
100% TRUE.
I can go buy cigarettes and alcohol tho!
Crazy Kup and they're way more addictive and dangerous than kratom!
True
Due to the companies making trillions . All about the $$$ Not people .
Crazy Kup this is a product that could help people so the government wants to take it away until they can make a profit of it
Over the past 100 years tobacco has contributed to over a billion deaths. Look it up. Yet they ACT like their concerned about kratom being dangerous.
I have taken Kratom for years and have not had any issues. That does not mean that it has not to others. I am a grown adult and I like the ability to choose for myself what helps me. I do not need Government telling me what I can and cannot take. Kratom has helped me immensly and I never exceed the dosage I take. I have never felt like increasing the dosage like I did with Vicodin. My life is better because of Kratom.

Been using it for back pain, anxiety, and energy for almost 7 years. No side effects. Plenty of people in the community can point you in the right direction for recommended doses especially for those just starting out. These doctors are clearly protecting their income flow and nothing more. Wouldn't let the woman speak for 10 seconds uninterrupted.
Hey I'm interested in trying kratom for pretty much the same reason you use it for but I'm still trying to find out which one to take and how much. Can you please help point me in the right direction
@@jessicawilliams3951 depends on what you want out of it. If you want the more "energetic" feeling go for a green or white vein strain, Green Malay is my personal pick. If you want a more "relaxed" feeling go for a red strain like Red Bali. Try 2 capsules first, your tolerance should be low enough
What's your dosage,? Have you ever not taken it for a certain period of time and notice withdrawal?
@@bigshoots1181 I take 5 size 00 capsules per dose (about 3.5 grams), 1-2 times a day. I do notice mild withdrawal symptoms if I skip a few doses, mostly just restlessness. I do get a bit constipated if I go more than a few days without.
Hi there...How much does the kratom help your pain? Level 10 being completely gone
I'm a former Marine combat veteran and 100% P&T disabled (in other words, medically retired in my 30s). Shattered my right elbow while on active duty, and over the course of 18 years I've had nine surgeries. Was diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome early 2021 (nicknamed "the suicide disease" for good reason). In layman's terms, it's a neurological disorder; the nerves in my right arm constantly send pain signals to my brain, which in turn overwhelms my central nervous system, causing myriad secondary conditions.
I've been taking kratom for nearly six years, and while it has been helpful for pain management, it has also wreaked havoc on my GI system and aged my face considerably. Even worse, it changed my personality and made me much more argumentative and constantly on edge. For these reasons, I decided to stop cold turkey and am on day six. While the withdrawals have not been fun, my face is already looking better, my GI issues are improving greatly, and cognitively I just feel better.
That being said, I'm still an advocate for kratom and realize how helpful it is to so many people. Just because I've had a negative experience from it doesn't mean I don't recognize the benefits. I'm not sure what I'll do for pain management, but in the meantime I seem to be doing okay.
Thank you for your service, Marine! I'm a US Army combat vet who takes Kratom for a cervical spine condition I sustained while deployed. I agree with your assessment and can confirm the effects on physical appearance and gastrointestinal issues. It doesn't alter my disposition or mood like you described, but I do imagine it could. I wish you luck in your search for pain relief and better quality of life.
The absolute opposite happened for me. It improved my GI issues, which I would have immense bloating and constant intestinal pain from what doctors were suspecting was IBS. I can now eat relatively anything, in full meals, whereas before I would eat like a bird and then feel like crap for days after.
Year 5 for me here. Kratom is a life saver. Sorry you've managed to link yours to GI issues but perhaps you should change from the plant based to an extract based like MIT45 Super. The liquid is concentrated with less plant matter. The plant matter has too much cellulose which can definitely become irritant on your insides and will take more to process through your liver, hence potential in speeding up the aging process. I highly recommend that vs going to any of the doctor prescribed methods (fentanyl / benzo / opiods etc)
What about all the legal prescribed drugs killing more people yearly than kratom ever has haha
TRUTH and what most people don't know is that 99 percent of all the people on heroine or synthetic opiates were introduced to the drugs with prescriptions...Imagine that. Most switch to heroine once they couldn't be prescribed anymore or it became too expensive.
Kratom hasnt killed anyone, prescription drugs has!!!!
KRATOM NEVER KILLED ANYONE.. LOL
Um, so far. Early yet.
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 its been used for over 200 years in south east asia and no reported deaths have been from kratom.
Initially, my son told me that he had developed an addiction to serious prescription opiods for pain. He tried Kratom. Not only did he have help with detox, it has managed his pain for YEARS. I need double knee replacements, and am a liver patient. They literally throw opiods at me, which I really don't want to go down an addiction path again. I tried kratom - it is incredible. I have had zero side effects, the pain is tolerable, I have much better sleep (not waking up every hour in pain) and you can't OD on it. How is this a bad thing? I will tell you....because Big Pharma isn't making a buck off of it.
What dosage do you do? I'm also considering taking it for my neural lyme disease. Do you build up a tolerance? So you can only take it so many times before it doesn't have any effect on you?
@@bigshoots1181 start off by taking about 2.5 grams and see how that dose effects you then you can increase your dose the next time you take it if you weren’t satisfied with your previous dosage. I’ve been taking Kratom for awhile and you do build up a tolerance but as long as you take a day or two off a week it should keep your tolerance in check. I started taking white strains in the beginning for energy but switched to red. I’ve noticed red seems to give me a relaxed, but energetic feeling at a higher dosages. Honestly red Borneo has nearly cured my anxiety, and it’s helped me work thru my pain I have working in a warehouse.
My grandmother had horrible IBS issues and can’t take antidepressants as they all tear her stomach apart. She used to not be able to go to the store without having a panic attack and leaving in the middle of shopping. She takes one gram of kratom before she leaves her house and she can function in public. I’m trying to quit kratom personally as it’s causing lack of emotion, BUT I still will always root for it because I’ve seen first hand how it helps those with chronic pain and mental illness. Forgot to add it helped me quit alcohol. I was an alcoholic for years.
But its kratom an stimulant or sedative?
I live in India this is sold in normal supermarkets together with teas. I bought it thinking its matcha tea and somebody told me I would get high so I didnt take it.
I was wondering what is the effect if its energizing or if it helps to relax.
Where and how do I purchase
I have extreme pain with arthritis and associated pain. I tried Kratom Red Vein Bali last night for the first time. I took 1/8 of a teaspoon and then this morning 1/4 of a teaspoon. My pain levels, depression and overall feelings of anxiety have subsided to the point that I am walking and virtually pain free. Now this is temporary, I get that. But as a tax paying citizen and a member of the Senior Citizen club....I am sick to death of being told what i can and cannot take to help my pain levels.
I am treated like a drug addicted kid when I go to the doctors office to ask for a crappy Tylenol Three. I have to see the doctor every three months to renew a 30 day prescription and blood tests to make certain that i am not taking more of anything.

The pharma industry regulating things doesn't want a cure and they want to regulate everything for profit.
Great supplement for addiction clearly, when taken properly. But, be VERY, VERY, VERY careful how far you go especially if you are not experienced in how dangerous addiction can be. Kratom is in fact very addictive if used incorrectly, and can have some pretty insane side effects, especially when abusing the liquid extracts. Key word, abuse. I used every day for 2 years, i was so confident in its safety and little side effects, i became unaware of how often or how much i was taking. it became second nature. Then it turned into $20 a day on an extract in the morning, followed by 8-10 spoon fulls after lunch up until bed time, sometimes more. the level of psychological damage the abuse has caused me is relatively extreme, although it is bearable once through the withdrawals. that being said, the withdrawals from this substance are far easier to deal with than other pain and anxiety medications, which is why it is proffered amongst the community. i do believe this is a miracle supplement, when taken correctly. But, moderation should not be left in the hands of an addict. Keep this in mind, if you don’t NEED it, don’t start it
“I’m not making money so please don’t take Kratom, we have DRUGS FOR THAT”

What kind of kratom did u get please
@@chasiyyjohnson1720 meng da red helped for sleep and anxiety the brand is klarity Kratom
@@chasiyyjohnson1720 to come off opiates use a red vein. Id suggest red bali or red malay for this. Red bali is the closets in effects to opiates and red malay tends to last a little longer than most strains. If youre using kratom to detox from opiates id suggest starting at about 10 grams 3 times a day. Keep in mind unless youre taking 100 grams of kratom a day then youll still experience some very minor withdrawal symptoms for a few days once you completely switch to kratom. After about a week on kratom start to lower your dosage by .5 grams a day. Go as slow as possible, if dones correctly you shouldn't experience any withdrawals during your taper. Id also suggest supplementing with agmatine and magnesium glycine. Agmatine actually reverses opiate tolerence and a hogh absorption for of magnesium will help tremendously with the anxiety and restlessness of opiate withdrawal.

Straight up
I'm a former opiate addict. I decided to try Kratom and I liked that it had an initial endorphin "rush" that quickly dissipated into mild calming effect. In meeting other Kratom users I met many who were using a quarter ounce or more at a time to get really high on it. I was ridiculed for my 3 small scoops. Now I've built up a resistance to it. I would like a Kratom product with a lab certified amount of the active ingredient.

Why are either side saying the complete opposite?! Can’t it be true that maybe all the pharma drugs, and Kratom may be useful?
Isn't it funny how the agency guy won't let these people speak?? They ask them questions but won't let them answer
Kratom is literally saving my life. I use different strains of this plant for different reasons and it's making my life great.

not what hes sayin but people are dumb to take things that are terrible for them even when told theyre terrible fo ryou.
Ashley ASHLEYM And the evidence which supports these allegations can be found where?
Let's take this scenario to another level. If I was previously sticking needles in my arm to shoot up some shit that is a little heroin mixed with God only knows what, how the fuck can you say anything about me eating a natural plant that only has been grounded into a fine powder, with no additives? No chemicals being used to extract a drug from it. I mean, if I'm sticking fucking needles in my arm just to feel normal and productive, then how is it a bad thing, or dangerous, for me to take this instead. Making Kratom illegal is just going to make people go back to heroin and other Poppy based products. I pay $10 an ounce for Kratom, and it lasts me about 4 or 5 days. So for $30 I'm set all week till payday. That same $30 would need to be spent each day for heroin. This asshole is the same kind of guy that probably pops 4 ibuprofen at a time because he thinks it's safe to do. Kratom saves lives. The people who HAVE died while using Kratom either take way way too much, or have some other health issue like liver problems, or other medication in their system. I eat between 4 and 6 grams all at once, and have been doing it for about 5 months straight now. It taste like shit, but I don't get any aftertaste. I hate people like this.
I hear u!!! They don't believe we can self medicate our selves.. I guess we're to dumb to take care ourselves. Sorry guys! CALL DR.PHIL..! HE CAN HELP
I literally just took kratom a couple of hours ago to treat my alcohol withdrawal, my liver pain has subsided and I can now hold down food without vomiting every hour.
Glad to hear you have found relief! It is a great compound for some, however if I may, I would suggest still getting a blood test to see what your liver enzyme levels are. Kratom may treat symptoms but might not actually fix the issue if that makes sense. Hope your liver heals up well and you are never alone on the road to recovery! Good energy being sent your way 🙏🏻
@Money Man depends on if you are new to it or not. For someone just starting out, typically a light dose would be 3 grams or less. A medium dose would be approx. 4 to 6 grams. A high dose would be roughly anything above 7 grams. Everyone's body is different though and there are many different strains with their own unique benefits.
About 6 pills overnight.
@Money Man honestly the potency of different strains is different for people based on opinion, but generally speaking I would say either Red Strain Bali for sedation, and White Strain Maeng Da for stimulation.
Saved my friend's life while he has Cirrhosis. he couldn't stop drinking and was literally knocking on death's door but refused to take it, things got so bad, I spoon fed him his first dose, he stopped drinking on the spot.
I have serious pain with arthritis, both pSA and Ra. The VA cut us off of all pain meds unless you are terminal. This Kratom helps along with Tumeric. Some days I can't hardly walk if the humidity is going up, rain is coming in, or winter time. I moved from Kansas to AZ just to get the weather relief, so yes, I need relief.

I use it daily, it has helped my anxiety more than any medication I’ve tried, as well as lowered my blood pressure .That’s just my experience though.

Why is nobody talking about the fact that kratom has a built in anti abuse mechanism? Take too high a dose and your body says nope and throws up and feel miserable for a day, reminding you to not take too much.
100 % Fact
Lmao and so does heroin
Anti-abuse mechanism? Get the hell out of here. This stuff is highly addictive and I personally know from taking it the last 3 to 4 months and being a prior opiate addict. So addictive in fact did I found myself having to take one when I went to sleep after month two Or I would get the bed jerks craving it
@UC3roYUPwkw47avZZvexhTPg that's so over exaggerated lmao or you are just a little bitch
@@warzonewrath2751 lol you weren’t addicted to the kratom, it sounds like you were using it to ease your opiate withdrawal symptoms. If you stopped taking it then the easing would cease. Opiate withdrawals don’t go away quickly. Get out of here with that misinformation
There are no deaths from Kratom and it does not psychoses or anything of the sort, stop spreading lies.
Extradimensionalmindstatee apparently there are just in the other videos in the recommend they say a cop overdosed on kratom
tell that to my FREIND, whose husband is addicted to it and is in psychosis in debt over $20,000 and is wandering the streets talking to himself and nobody knows where he's at now yes some people it doesn't affect in the negative way some people it does if you have heart disease it can kill you. I guess it helps some people but some people it can hurt with any type of medication or herbal supplements some people do great on peyote and then some people don't some people are allergic the penicillin and then some people die from it
Extradimensionalmindstatee completely agree this is not dangerous,vitamins have caused me horrible side effects this is not something you chow down. Opioids are ruthless!
Extradimensionalmindstatee I love it
It's non toxic. You can ingest the hell out of it and be fine. But as a human, you have to determine your own dose. I'm on the coffee during the day and kratom at night shit. I get by.
I take kratom everyday. Im a recovered heroin addict. After 2 years of sobriety and cleanliness i was still suffering from the damage the decade of drug abuse has done to my body. Kratom keeps me going..
Not sure if you will see this but I am just wanting to start using this. To avoid wd .. can you recommend how much you took and often ?? And does jt really get rid of the wd symptoms ??

Thats so good to hear ! Im about to kick off Subutex and i really hope that Kratom will help. I never tried it but so many comments say it works. This sounds to me like a miracle plant then
Kratom has been in my life for 8 years now! I use it every fee days, usually never any days in a row, and to help people understand what I mean I now call it "microdosing", because folks understand that these days.
What's special about me (not really) is that I don't have severe issues, but I do have some moderate or mild autoimmune problems that it helps with. It's also amazing for period cramps, injuries, or just generally feeling good!
You don't need to be coming off opiates to enjoy kratom (although I'm not at all dismissing the impact kratom has for that). You don't need to be in severe pain either (again, not dismissing), you can just be a more regular person who enjoys it.
Take breaks and don't make it a big deal, try to keep your dose low. It's a health booster :)
"This country has laws, we generally like to follow them."
That's a good laugh.
Amber Mikrut if they truly cared about our health, cigarettes and alcohol would be banned. Benzos and opiates wouldn’t be prescribed like candy. Just because it’s legal, doesn’t mean it’s safe. And just because it’s illegal, doesn’t mean it’s dangerous.
@@ST-xw3cv benzos are fucking wild man. I’ve used them on occasion, like no more than twice a month.
There’s not a substance on earth that I use and have more respect for than benzos, and really anything that affects GABA receptors (alcohol included). I’ve witnessed WDs first hand... and damn.
@@ST-xw3cv Exactly, like Marijuana.
Every drug company in the country skirts, cheats, and lies their way to approval and I dont trust agencies like the FDA
What "The Doctors" show has cut out is probably the best part of this whole segment. You have two people who shared their testimony about how Kratom has positively helped their lives. Kratom HAS helped many people with their addiction and depression. The fact that you can't say "it helped me" on a medical level is bogus. Tylenol killed 150 people last year and you don't hear anyone shouting regulation with that. Simply because they're already making money from it. This is why they're talking about regulating Kratom - MONEY.

Last I heard its against the law to slap a patent on a plant and start calling it you're invention. Opiate treatment is so fucking prehistoric and terribly harmful. If you're ever unlucky enough to get into this situation ask your doctor to talk you through non opiate detoxes before he starts ramming subutex or methadone down your throat. If you do think you need opiate treatment then ask about alternatives with shorter half lives and please try not to stay on you're dose for too long.
I specifically take Kratom before driving to focus better. WTF guys.
That just sounds fucking dumb. I know what that shit does to you. I would never say that it's bad to take, but I know first hand that it makes you a little out of it. Eating Kratom to go driving will only help out the rest of humanity because at least we'll have to worry about one less idiot in the world when you blackout after eating kratom and accidentally taking sleepy meds with it or something.
El' Duderino, while that last statement of yours has no actual proven basis: I get what you're saying. I thought you were talking about getting loaded on kratom and then driving
Camden Castillo >blackout after eating kratom
Small doses of kratom, I'm talking 1-3 grams, are stimulating. That is exactly what laborers use it for in Asia when they chew the leaves. LABOR. Ya fuckin' moron.
Flac Or Gtfo, dude wtf is your problem. I didn't actually mean that a person can blackout with kratom alone. I'm just saying that I know from experience that when you take alot of kratom (3-4 grams) and drink beer or take medication that makes you drowsy, it will have a very strong effect on the person. I was using hyperbole and I'm sorry that you didn't get that. I also use kratom most days that I work because it helps me get through my days. Calm down down bro. No need to get your panties in a bunch.
Although I suppose my first response was a bit hostile in itself.... oops
Flac Or Gtfo i find it funny how he calls himself an educated doctor with enough confidence to tell people what to ingest and doesnt know how grams work...GRAMS! Universal scientific weight measurement.
Well, I work in a detox facility as a registered nurse and I haven’t seen even one person that came in that had issues that related to kratom!

5 years ago I was in jail for problems related to my alcohol and drug addiction. Today I have been clean from alcohol and heroin and the business I started last year is going great. Kratom has played a huge role on helping make lifestyle changes and lead a sane, healthy , and productive life. The interest big Pharma has in shutting down kratom is self evident and has been pointed out in these comments. The reason the "Intervention" guy is on the panel is because the addictions treatment industry stands to have their ineffective treatment models challenged. 12 step and complete abstinence work for some people and should be a choice. But if saving lives and helping addicts is REALLY the most important part of treating addictions then the opposition to alternative treatment models is at best misguided and at worst absolutely criminal . It makes me sick watching the hypocrisy of established institutions put their machine into action whenever their knowledge, money, or power is at stake . When the message from individual addicts is "This works and it literally saved my life" , their answer is "WE DON'T CARE"

I've used kratom since I was 14 I'm 26 now, had no serious health issues and never had a bad experience with it. It has helped me through many tough times as well as gave me the motivation to get in shape. I use it mainly for focus because I have adhd and it helps tremendously. I hate pharmaceutical drugs and the way they make me feel not to mention the damage they do to your liver.
that's awesome! which strains/brand did you use? I've never been diagnosed or anything, but always struggled with focus in studies, n getting in shape (never was out of shape per say, but never was consistent n worked out either etc...) so i'd be willing to give it a shot.
@@AnotherBangaTV Green Maeng Da is best for focus, or basically any white strain but my favorite is Trainwreck by boosted kratom which is a blend of all three types. Your local smoke store should have it if you don't want to order it online and wait.

I'm actually looking into this for my 14 year old son and 12 year old daughter. My son has severe ADHD and my daughter has severe anxiety. I was concerned about the lack of research into children using this. Have you talked to others who share your success?

Marie M that’s great, and I applaud hind to not making excuses. There was a lot of health problems that come with regular long term use. Please don’t be ignorant to the risk, they are noteworthy
I need some advice if u don’t mind since u were addicted to alcohol were u ever given Suboxone? I have been taking it for years and want off of it but don’t know if Kratom will help with the withdrawals. I ordered some before from a reputable company and it did nothing😩Do u think the suboxone blocked it?
Sylvanna Mitrevska well I ,myself, am not a alcoholic. However, I do smoke herbs (peppermint, mugwort, lavender) they are much more cooling and some relaxing than weed or tobacco. It’s more of a calming and relaxer for me. And non addiction. I’d be the first to recommend it for you. Because I’d hate to know you jumped from one substance to another. As for Kratom, I’ve had it before and it works. But can also be additive if with regular use. You can order dried herbs on amazon. I recommend growing them😚, drying them, and smoking them or 🍵 tea to give you that accomplishment feeling. Or just go on amazon for like $10 for 3 ounces. Check on the video on TH-cam from 420 science on smokable herbs with hempsly (another youtuber)
He is so upset because he is not making money of it
you cannot patent a plant and this is the big issue for regulation . i take kratom for pain and i was on oxycodone and morphine prior . kratom works and has far less side effects then opiods . you cannot get wasted on Kratom and if you do too much then you just feel nauseous and you wont ever take that much again . think of it like coffee . no one ever told you how much coffee you have to use but you know what will happen if you drink too much ...... same shit but this works for pain
I’ve taken Kratom for years and have had both negative effects (withdrawal, overdoses, and sickness) and positive. I use it everyday day all day and have gotten sick from it and felt good from it. I choose to keep using it.
Fabricant: "supplements aren't supposed to do anything". Wow for someone who runs the NPA that is a deplorable statement. I think the American people need to ban together and form the first NATURAL PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY. There is a black hole for any traditional medicine in this country and I'm sick of it. This shit REALLY WORKS AND WORKS TO WELL FOR THEIR LIKING THATS THE PROBLEM!!!!!
Yeah Kratom is literally is most def a troll. Ban doesn't go thru and suddenly on October 4th the propagation of propaganda makes his account...riiigght. If you could call a herb medicinal in this day n age then yohimbine, kava, kanna, akuamma, and kratom would wipe out all the pain meds, muscle relaxants, anxiety and depression, ptsd, basically half of all Pharma profit. Phuck Pharma
Adam Mason yeah what the hell is up with that.? He's literally making an argument AGAINST the effectiveness of supplements. He's saying if any supplement does what it claims then it should be a drug. This jerk should lose his high standing position immediately.
A scam until you yourself benefit from it. A young healthy person with no health issues like yourself has no reason to seek alternative treatments. Vitamin D is a supplement, as is vitamin B12. Yet it's prescribed regularly because deficiencies lead to more serious health consequences. Please continue to argue your points, but don't be surprised when you or a loved one need one of these "bunk" supplements to improve their health.
Kratom is Literally Heroin, you are calling other people butt hurt, but you are on every single kratom video on TH-cam attacking it like your life depends on it. If anyone is way too worked up and "butt hurt" over any of this, it's you. Take a 5 minute break from the internet and chill out man. Jesus...
Adam Mason, he has been constantly showing up on almost every video in regards to kratom. He's basically obsessed with this plant for whatever reason and this ban delay is destroying his life. It's all he does. His entire existence is nothing more than trolling kratom on TH-cam. It's the strangest thing I have ever witnessed.

From my experience, it doesn't take long to build up a tolerance and snag some really bad withdrawals. I have difficulty understanding how people use it daily but I can see it being good if used in conjunction with other methods. Say 2- 3x a week using kratom and 4x a week delta 8 to manage a chronic condition. I don't think the issue is black or white. And I think it can be really helpful. But it can get out of hand quickly if not (somewhat) closely monitored. And of course, depends on medication interactions and your own personal biology so experiment but do so with caution. If you feel even a twinge of the next day weirdness - ease up. Its not worth that restless legs/arms + extreme insomnia + breathing issues + unique version of depression (and I struggle with really bad chronic depression/anxiety...this was its own unique form of torment).
"4x a week delta 8 to manage a chronic condition. "
You are such a complete and total moron. Delta 8? Any other chinese mystery chemicals that you would like to endorse, you dumbshit? People have been taking kratom for thousands of years in the parts of the world where it grows. Delta 8 was just invented in a chinese lab a few years ago. You're fucking stupid for taking that shit.
I struggled with that at first as well. I will say this, it should be taken like an SSRI. Don't immediately quit while on a regulated dose. Learn what 'activates' your baseline. i.e. 2 grams every 4 to 6 hours. Yes, you will start to feel like shit if you go cold turkey but that is maybe 1/20th or 1/100th of how bad any other opiod withdrawal is and you won't die from the kratom withdrawal like you may from the opiods. Slight body chill and maybe some irritability at most was all I got even on my hardest dose of 20 grams daily when I was still uneducated in its use. I am much much lower on my kratom use now, and regulate to my single dose every 4 to 6 hours. The timeframe fluctuates based on other factors such as diet, so hence I say 4 to 6 hours. Some days I take even less. Some days I need a double dose to start, but then let myself skip my next dose because I feel normalized/good. That's the baseline tactics I use anyway.
I find extracts work best, MIT45 Super is my go to as I buy it in bulk and just dose out half capfuls. It's allowed me to move through my constant pain and the otherwise debilitating anxiety I would live through without it. Kratom is a life saver for anyone using it correctly.
@@bigfirepop your routine is just for addicts. there are a lot of people that experience very minimal withdrawals from kratom even after long term use. I quit after ten years and my withdrawals were restless leg syndrome for 3-4 days. The people that do have bad withdrawals are the people that started taking kratom to get off some other drugs. Kratom just delays the withdrawal from those drugs and makes it different, but it doesn't erase it. And kratom isn't comparable to SSRI's. Kratom doesn't have the side effects of suicide and turning into a mass shooter.
And no one should ever take kratom extracts. Just because kratom is mild doesn't mean the extracts are. Cocaine is just coca leaf extract and it's a whole different animal than chewing coca leaves.
These "doctors" disgust me
They'll be replaced by artificial intelligence.
Typical, they get their marching orders according to big pharma’s pocket book.
I got hooked on kratom and started taking 2-5 doses a day to help me deal with anxiety and get through work shifts for about 6-8 months straight, and let me tell you the withdrawals were MISERABLE. I became super depressed, full of anxiety no appetite couldn't sleep and the worst was the restless leg syndrome. This being said I think kratom is amazing and very beneficial if used in moderation and under the right circumstances!! Do your research and find out what works best for you! If you have an impulsive or addictive personality then kratom can cause problems... if you have self discipline then Kratom can be very beneficial :) love yall
your experiences are the most accurate i've seen so far in the comments. this is the reality of it its a drug like everything else with withdrawals. stuff is great but lets not pretend its something else than it is haha
Exact same thing is happening to me. The withdrawals are intense! If i didnt have a baby to take care of it would be easier to get off. Im hooked and about to go to detox center but a part of me still wants to take it to cope with mental illness. The huge problem is it DOES help depression and anxiety but you also ADD problems. Lile addiction and getting in a very bad mood when your coming down. My family is suffering from it.... Dont take it if your an addict. I was fine for several years then my body got so used to it now im physically dependant and it sucks. I also take it every single day in high doses
the best thing for kratom withdrawals hands down is kava. it's similar to kratom but has a reverse tolerance meaning when you start taking more of it you feel less and when you take less you feel more. you can stop cold turkey and literally experience no withdrawals.
Just how I felt coming off! So nice to see others who went through it. I took it for years. Restless leg syndrome was horrible! My stomach was a mess. It did help my depression and ADD but over time it started to change my personality with the highs and lows it brings you.
I’m addcited to everything. The doctor in this video is wrong. For the first time in awhile I’m not smoking weed today because Keaton gave me the anxiety relief weed does.

I've been an addict for over 20 years and on suboxone for the last 3 years..I've tried methadone before also trying to get off opioids...Nothing worked until I found kratom, I was able to stop taking suboxone cold turkey with absolutely no withdraws at all over 6 months ago...Kratom is a cousin to the coffee plant so why is the FDA trying to class it as an opioid? Opioids come from poppies, the very poppies that our government is so worried about guarding so that big pharma can keep poisoning people with their synthetic drugs ...I am an adult and if I choose to treat myself without the FDA or big pharma it should be up to me.
Denise Yes please preach this! I am so sick of the dang government telling everybody what they should or should not put in their bodies. I always say that if women have a right to their own bodies by having abortions, then what's it any different if people want to medicate themselves? It's our own choice and our free will.
Denise wow I came to this video because Ive been stuck on suboxone for 6+ years and I heard kratom might help but I know nothing about it
No withdrawals? That seems little absurd. Even at 8 gram doses I was still experiencing 50% withdrawals. On day 9 and still not outta the woods. I will say that everyone is different tho.

I am 34 years old and just try to for the first time because I’ve been visiting Florida for a few weeks and I was driving around and noticed they had these kava bars so I checked out a few. While doing so they each had drinks made with Kratom as well. So I tried this seltzer type drink they had. I got a euphoric feeling definitely a more creative mind. I would say it energize me. Plus I am very knowledgeable about many different herbs. I’ve been studying herbalism for several years and I have a apothecary. However I didn’t know anything about Kratom. Last night unfortunately I drank just a little bit of what I had left of that drink around 10 PM at night and I was wired all night and couldn’t sleep till about maybe 5 AM and I feel like shit today. I felt super hyper alert. I also ate some dark chocolate last night so that could’ve added to it as dark chocolate is known to have caffeine. I really smoke marijuana anymore because it also gives me insomnia. I enjoy the creativity it creates and helps to open my mind however not sleeping at all it’s usually not worth it. I had a feeling that it had some type of stimulant affect because it is a leaf therefore almost similar to a Tea. The bar that I went to also had several different colors such as red yellow or green and one was said to be more energizing and uplifting and the other was to be more relaxing which was the red color which is what I tried. I think that is possibly misleading or incorrect because just like marijuana whether it’s sativa or Indica despite the purported different affects of relaxation or mind stimulation it is still the same substance. Just a different strain. So with Kratom I believe no matter what if you are hardwired a certain way it’s going to affect you in that way. I see comments of people getting off Suboxone for this drug or herb. Good for them. I’ve never had a problem with addiction to opiates. I was looking for it for help with inflammation and arthritis as I fractured my hand in several places and never healed correctly. I also have pretty bad social anxiety and I’ve been in a severe depression because of other traumatic experiences I had. No matter WHAT effects I guarantee these are not as bad as antidepressants or anxiety medication such as clonzapam or trazadone or sertraline. That stuff makes me sooo tried and yawning. No matter what, if it’s natural in its natural form like kratom. As long as ppl don’t abuse it it’s okay in moderation. It’s those teenagers taking handfuls and constantly that are idiots trying to get messed up off of it that would cause ill effects. Which tbh would’ve probably been me in HS. I was smoking weed all the time, abusing prescription drugs like vicodin and adderall. But def not an addict now and alll the ppl that say it’s helped them kick alcohol or heroin or suboxone I have Zero compassion for. If your only excuse is emotional use as in those vices gtfoh. Most addicts are entitled rich kids that haven’t had jobs so they’ve been privileged to sit on their ass and numb themselves. Now if you have real pain like me, hand constantly hot to touch from inflammation and arthritis then it makes sense to alleviate it. It’s an herb and plant. Just like weed. It should be legal with warnings. Most all prescription drug companies want to ban these because they can’t patent a plant- so instead they synthesize it down and put a name on it “kratomone” or “kratozone “ and then they can divvy it out for 1000x the cost.
U tell him doc! Kratom has a built in protection. If u take too much u will throw up and NEVER take too much again! Believe me!

That is correct.
Cash rules everything around you, full stop
I used kratom for 2 years and all I can say is it is incredibly addicting and the longer you use it the more you need it and want it. It's also pretty expensive. I finally decided enough was enough and let me tell you I'm an alcoholic and was an opiate addict I've been sober from that for 8 years. When I decided to kick kratom it was literally hell for least two weeks I've never felt so horrible in my entire life. Definitely not worth taking that stuff unless you are going to use it for the rest of your life. I literally thought I was going to die.
One of my work buddies was taking meth and heroin. Would also take like 10-12 kratoms a day. He got fired. I can’t work with a dude who is constantly high.
It’s pretty cheap actually, if you buy at smoke shops it’s expensive as hell that’s why you buy kratom from vendors that are selling in powder form
U can buy it by the Kilo (2.2lbs) for 50$ online. Even cheaper if u order it from a grower in Indonesia. Kilos as little as 30-40$ a piece ... Just so u know.
Agree 100%. Kratom sucks and so do the vendors who sell it along with Delta 8 synthetic THC. The FDA needs to crack down.
@@jackspinner4727 lol, he wasn't high from the kratom. Just sayin
I'll decide what to put into my body. I definitely don't need government's approval.
If u take too much kratom u don’t “end up under a bridge”. It’s like drinking too much coffee, your body automatically throws up.
HAHA, SO TRUE!! You will vomit it up is the worst that can happen
Couldn’t have put it better! I’ve been taking it 3/4 tines a dat everyday for three years now. Saved my life!
It is literally impossible to take too much.
Facts!
No it feels like a shitty opiate like tramadol. Some people go and buy boxes of extract. Use like 60 bucks daily. People find out its shitty feeling and go back to using
Why didn't anyone argue the fact that hundreds/thousands of drugs that have been studied and regulated are found to be dangerous/lethal and is the main cause of this very discussion, ie opiods.
Or the horror people go through coming off drugs like gabapentin or Lyrica. I had a friend kill herself WD off gabapentin
Big pharma will forever openly endorse far worse and actual damaging drugs to get people hooked and reel in cash. Kratom isn’t what helped kill my dad, that was legal opioids they overprescribed him 🤷🏻♂️
off of Gabapentin ???? wow I had no idea it was addictive
vphathom, Yes, Gabapentin is a 'controlled substance' and some people not only have horrific side effects from it, but people who have taken it regularly say the withdrawal is way worse than opiates!
the reason I ask ?? I am prescribed Gabapentin,, I forget to take it all the time, some times, 8 days will go by before I remember to take it. I really feel its a waste of time it don't help much if any. I have had 6 spinal surgery's
that's like complaining because coffee doesn't come with dosage information. kratom is very mild, like the caffeine and ephedrine pills they used to sell before they made them illegal. and if you take a lot of it to try to get high, it just makes you feel sick.
He speaks of credibility and regards the claim that Kratom is a supplement as laughable. I do agree that Kratom is a supplement in perhaps non-legal and non-scientific conversations alone, however, it is psychoactive and most certainly a drug. But that is mostly irrelevant; there are many drugs which are legal and can be bought over the counter, and many of them have been proven to cause substantial harm to individuals and to society. I shouldn't have to make that list for you.
Credibility and laughability? Let's have a discussion about the federal agencies which are tasked with the regulation of drugs. Should Kratom be studied more extensively? As a user, I say absolutely. Should it be regulated? Of course. But the DEA, which derives its legitimacy and authority by law and certainly not by competence, has no goddamn business getting their filthy, greedy tendrils around something with such potential for benefits anywhere near Kratom.
What exactly were the plans to regulate Kratom? List it as a Schedule I narcotic. What does Schedule I indicate? No medical benefits and strict penalties for use and possession. Such a proposal is utterly ridiculous, and demonstrates the obvious fact that they either have no idea what they're doing, or that they have an agenda to criminalize anything that could be counterproductive to profits and incarceration rates.
Well said I love this so much and it has helped me a bit with my stupidity. That's right Bryan L. Morrison influenced a feeling within me, im sure there were chemical reactions going on and... suddenly I felt... slightly hopeful for humanity and a bit understood. I am making that claim and now.... it may very well be a drug. How do we package that? ah... never mind, it's the enemy and should be regulated, criminalized because i should only have physiological things happen that are sold to me by "them" and taxed. Sooooooooo angry when they dont get their piece.
Very well put !
Kratom does work
The Loose Moose thx bro gonna pick some up in the morning and as soon as I feel better I'm NEVER TAKING NONE OF THIS SHIT AGAIN
NeWarKREPPAnj I'm from Newark also !
The Loose Moose no shit lol well you know we're rock solid, I live in Atlanta now but I got the devils tatted all over me 💪
NeWarKREPPAnj yeah, I'm in Florida right now but leaving for Idaho soon. I live offgrid now.. lived in north Newark for 30 years... use kratom to detox off whatever opiate you're on, about 1 heaping teaspoon... you will feel good while the harsher drug flushes out of your body.. after a week, take less kratom until you don't need it ... done deal... once you body is used to the kratom and you slowly cut it down , the withdraw is WEAK... EASY... if you're coming off subs then use the kratom for 2 or 3 weeks before you cut down. Sub stays in the system much longer than dope... you will know when the sub is out of your body because you will wake up before getting 8 hours of sleep (kratom last for about 6 hours) ... wake up, take your kratom and you'll be good to go....when I was coming off subs, I woke up on day 4 at 430am and I knew the sub was flushed.. every day after that I went to sleep at 11pm (take kratom right before bed) and I woke up at 5am every day because the kratom started losing it's power.... it's great because it's basically just a weak opiate that you can buy in the store ! I didn't believe it would work but it does 100%.. it also kicks in FAST (about 15-30 minutes) buy the powder and get a big bag ! White is speedy, green is midrange, red is dopey .. I used the white and green...
The Loose Moose North Newark huh? My great grandmother had a house on 1st st. for forever right across the street from the spires, you may have known or heard of my family, it's a big family, the McDaniels?
Sounds exactly what the medical field says about anything that they can’t make money off of.
as someone who has taken kratom daily from 2018 to 2024 my concern with kratom is the levels of heavy metals in the powder being sold (lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium, etc) combined with the dosages people are taking. you should always get lab tested kratom and look at the test results. stuff like lead and arsenic can build up in the body with chronic use and cause problems. i'm trying to lower my dose as much as possible but kratom has given me tangible benefits for depression, pain, anxiety, etc, that i really appreciate. i just hope i'm not wrecking my body by taking like 20 grams daily, recently i've been noticing hair loss and adhd-like symptoms
