User Reviews for kratom

For 12 years I've consumed plain leaf Kratom. Reading through these reviews I see the same story over and over by the same people claiming to be others. All who've continued to "up their dose" or use potent extracts at an alarming rate want to blame the plant. No one forced anyone into taking Kratom. No one spends thousands of dollars a month on plain leaf Kratom. It is a choice that ADULTS should be allowed to make. It dramatically changed my life by alleviating my crippling back pain back in 2011. My wife IS a Doctor and has seen my transformation from an obese 300 lb couch potato unable to do anything to a 176 lb gym rat in the best shape of my life. To those that ABUSED it for years, I blame YOU for your choices. Stop blaming the plant and take some personal accountability for your actions. Now these parents of ADULT CHILDREN want to sue anyone and everyone that they can possibly squeeze money out of. Trial attorneys all have their websites ready to take on your "Kratom Case". Bottom line; if used responsibily you will benefit. If you continue to read these toxic stories you may lose out on actually helping yourself. Everything in moderation. And to all the people out these claiming "Kratom Only Deaths" I challenge you to SHOW THE TOX SCREENS. Funny how they never do. #KeepKratomLegal Read More Read Less

No kratom does not cause seizures, no people do not overdose on it, no it doesnt kill people, no you can't inject it etc...so much misinformation on this site. Must be the pharmaceutical companies putting up the crap. I have been taking kratom for over 5 years and I'm doing just fine. Could it kill you??? Sure if you take excessive amounts over a long period of time. As with anything. I'm sure it could cause all kinds of health problems if abused. Kratom has saved many many lives. Don't believe everything you read. Read More Read Less

After receiving a DUI and excessive drinking to ease my anxiety, drinking at work, drinking every night to relax and slow my mind and years of psych meds for my depression and unable to shut my mind down and sleep unless alcohol induced, kratom has changed my life. I now have been alcohol-free for 3 months, and I'm not dependent on my sleep meds, I'm still taking my psych meds for fear of resorting back to my severe depression but the kratom has not affected the effects of it, and has given me more energy as well as working with my antidepressant, a will for life and a function. It is a godsend as well as a natural remedy. It's a leaf of a plant for God's sake and must not be taken away. I've tried marijuana but it is too sedative and not for me but it's also a plant people. I am in tears because it has changed my life for the better.Read More Read Less

I want to cancel my next order

I have met too many families whose loved ones died from this and many more whose lives were thrown off the rails because of addiction. Not sure why this is even suggested for reviews when it is adulterated under federal law.

I have used this safely without side effect for many years now. As long as you're getting Kratom from a GMAP certified source, and are adhering to responsible use guidelines (i.e., a specific dose at set intervals, instead of "as much as you like whenever you feel like it") kratom is absolute safe, with no risks of respiratory depression, which is the mechanism of action via which narcotic opiates kill. Furthermore, WebMD's claim that "Kratom is possibly unsafe for most people." is irresponsible fear-mongering that is unsupported by any evidence. Kratom will not kill you, as long as you use it with the same responsibility that you would use when taking Tylenol. Read More Read Less

I started taking green and white vein Kratom in 2020, as to slow my alcohol consumption due have a fatty liver. For the record, I drank mostly on weekends and I wouldn't say it was excessive but I work out and eat healthy and wanted to get my elevated liver under control. Kratom helped, in fact, it curbed my desire to drink or that occasional recreational cigarette, once or twice a week when drinking. I still take the same amount once a day, about 4-6 times a week, which is about a level teaspoon (2 grams) and have not noticed a need to increase the dosage. (I have an athletic build and 6' and weigh 220) I feel relaxed for at least 3-4 hours after taking in the evening and don't feel hungover the next day. Anyone can abuse anything from coffee, eating sweets, etc. so if you have an addictive personality, you need to have someone monitor your Kratom usage. I typically don't write reviews but thought Kratom is something to provide useful information. Hope it helps.Read More Read Less

I've been taking Xanax for 10yrs and just had enough of pills just being dependent on them. But then I heard about kratom and wow just wow I don't take any meds no more and I feel more energetic and willing to go out and be productive because I have social anxiety plus depression and kratom was the answer all along. I take Red Vien maeg da kratom does wonders well for me.

Kratom gave me seizures, withdrawals, thyroid lumps and hyperthyroidism resulting in thyroidectomy. Proud to say I quit taking this trash a month ago tomorrow. 100% believe i would've been one of the ones to die if I didn't quit.

Doctors operated on Stomach 3x. Severely damaged nerves. was on Oxycodone. Could not tolerate side effect. Tried Kratom involving much research. I would have committed suicide without Kratom. The pain on terrible.

I began taking kratom because I could no longer have alcohol- which I was using to treat chronic pain and mental illness ( American health care). I really enjoyed how it made me feel: calm, relaxed, pain free, and like I could get cozy on the couch and not NEED booze. I think this herb is a godsend for people struggling with opioids and pain. Be extremely careful, though- it’s addictive on about the same level as alcohol or other self medicating drugs. You gain a tolerance and over about two years I took heavier and heavier extracts (I recommend you stay away from extracts) until… I had my first gran mal seizure. I honestly don’t think there’s much of a risk of this at normal therapeutic doses- I had begun to take an extremely reckless amount daily. There’s a lot of anecdotal evidence (and some studies even) out there that indicate it lowers your seizure threshold, and people I’ve talked to who’ve also experienced seizures are not only also on an irresponsible dose- but often taking some other kind of medication that also lowers the seizure threshold. So be careful. But if you are trying to get away from an addiction or need pain, depression, or anxiety relief I think this is a solid thing to try. Do your research and be safe about it.

I couldn't take it long because of my anxiety messed me up. I hated the feeling I got taking it.

I have had chronic migraine headaches for nearly 80 years. I discovered kratom recently, and its analgesic effect is amazing. Getting pain relief from the medical community is like pulling teeth; getting kratom is like buying a gallon of milk at the grocery store. I have been forbidden to use kratom by my doctor. He seems unable to come up with a solution for controlling my pain. So I found my own solution and a good one -- kratom. Go figure!

Used to treat severe back and shoulder pain. Usually 12 caps for a dose that worked. No nausea, headache, nothing. Just relief. I find it hard to believe anyone has addictive tenancies with this stuff unless they were/are addicted to something else. I'd use it for months at a time (8-9), the pain would finally end, and I would cease use. No symptoms of withdrawal, anxiety, depression, etc. - EVER. If I didn't take it, there was no angst to find some. Never! I have serious doubts about those reports. I will still use it if needed but surgery fixed my back and I found relief that way. If I needed it, I would have no problem using it at all. Read More Read Less

I started using Kratom over eight years ago. I am 58 years old, I’m at the gym every day sometimes twice a day. It is enhanced my mood and taking away serious back pain. there was a three day period where I was unable to take as my shipment did not come on time. My back tightened up to the point where I could barely get out of bed. I am a very focused person when I’m running my company as opposed to what I was before. I was pretty much, the nutty, Professor, and a scatter-brain. Make sure you read up on the different strains of Kratom assumption or four different purpose is. And their effects are true. Make sure you find a ride beautiful company, Trafford Leigh with testing done. There are a lot of people selling crap brands out there. The powder has a serious aftertaste with it as I mix mine with bananas and strawberries and almond milk. But, there is a capsule form that swallows easy and goes directly into your system. Once the gel caps melt off. I have literally had powder in my mouth as I put the pills in my mouth and was walking around to get my water bottle and it took a little bit of time, next thing I know my mouth is full of powder. not a good look as I look like a dragon breeding big green clouds. L O L do your research, I cannot stress that enough. It is 5:36 AM and I’m walking into the gym for the first workout of the day before my work. Best of luck to all of you. God bless you allRead More Read Less

Kratom is a life saver. Dnt believe these negative reviews. It just simply takes pain away and puts you in a good mood. Peace love and harmony: thank you Kratom

Kratom is a great motivator am over 65 and still work out weight training it gets the mind activated which enables me to lift some heavy weights. Remember the mind is powerful when you bring out its potential it controls your body if the mind is weak the body is weak in all aspects. like any stimulant you have to know what amount and when to take works best for you.

I just had a friend cause by it. He has been taking it for six months, turned around and fell down dead 52 years old

Kratom has given me my life back! Great for nerve pain

Overall, I have had a positive experience with this herb. It is important to remember that much like caffeine, there is a slight addictive property to kratom. It works great for pain and can provide an energy boost. Remember to keep doses as low and infrequent as possible.
