  • Kara from Minnesota

    Kratom has been the only support that has continued to be a lifesaver for the past 15 years!!!! I was rear ended by a semi truck, and spent the next few years in the western medical world. I was addicted to Vicodin and Percocet for those three years, and they abruptly stopped prescribing them to me.

    I was going through withdrawals without any furthering support. I couldn’t sleep, and the constant pain and restlessness was eating at me every moment of the day. I was then introduced to Kratom by a very well educated person on this topic, and once I found the correct strain and dosage that worked for me, it became my miracle to survival.

    The injuries I sustained from that accident will be something I carry with me for life, and without Kratom, life is miserable.

    Please REGULATE and EDUCATE!!!! Banning Kratom is not the answer!!!

  • Josh from Minnesota

    "When anti-depressants weren’t working and nothing else was working, I tried Kratom and it worked wonders for my mental health. I was severely depressed and Kratom came through and helped to lift me out of despair. I still use it and I can’t imagine my life without it."

  • Cooper from Minnesota

    “As a Minnesotan and a Marine Corps Veteran, I have health problems to say the least. Kratom gives me the opportunity everyday to stand back up, to be able to take care of my fiancée and my home. It is a medicine, like many other herbs and plants around the world, like Devil's Claw, another herb I use; these medicines deserve respect. Please protect this beautiful plant, it's keeping so many people alive.”
