Today, I talk about how I realized today that pushing for regulation and cooperation with the FDA on kratom policy is not the whole picture of what needs to be addressed. There is another component just as big.

Today, we take a look at a question on Reddit which, I think, raises an important point and perhaps an overlooked issue with how kratom is considered both a stimulant and a sedative based on white red or green, and based on the amount one takes.

Today, I talk about two big question that I can’t stop thinking about when thinking of coffee and kratom in society: 1. Will coffee have its moment under the magnifying glass or not? 2. When, and how, will kratom come out from under it?  *** HAPPY HIPPO Discount *** : Coupon code EVERYTHINGKRATOM at checkout, or this link - ⁠⁠https://happyhippoherbals.com/r?id=ul2k1j⁠⁠ DISCLAIMER: The information...

Today, I make a ridiculous and uninformed comparison of red & green kratom to a heavy steak dinner and white kratom to the salad. Sorry, what can I say... it’s Friday.

Today, I talk about this page on the FDA’s website - https://www.fda.gov/news-events/public-health-focus/fda-and-kratom - and how recent changes reveal, to me at least, that they are beginning to fundamentally shift the way they approach kratom. Of course, I don’t know for sure, but listen in and find out why I think this is the case. *** HAPPY HIPPO Discount ***: Coupon code EVERYTHINGKRATOM at c...
