Thailand just legalized Kratom, and they grow it there. Sad there may come a time where if you want to try and kick your opiate addiction with Krat you have to move, its threatened with same nonsense in Canada. Not banned yet, but Health Canada our version of FDA is saying it's not "approved".
I don't have an opiate addiction but have read lots of testimonial from people who do who say it helped big time. Fuck governments that want to put people on methadone or Subutex but ban the herbal alternative
