re: Louisiana taking another stab at making kratom illegal to appease Big Pharma

According to what I have yet to see anything besides rhetoric that says this.

Well I've detoxed people from it, so I've seen it in person. It isn't pretty.

How is marijuana a schedule 1 (no medical use) when marijuana is medicinal in most states.

Dr.s cant write an Rx for marijuana as it is schedule 1. They can basically recommend you are exempted from the law to buy it tho. I think its kinda like if your doctor writes a note you have a small bladder or a UTI or something you may be able to get out of a public urination charge.

Some states ignore federal law (thankfully) and allow people to buy it, if they are recommended to be able to buy it.

Explain please, I'm interested to know what a detox is like, and can you prove the detox was purely from Kratom only or were other drugs involved as well?

---

I can't prove anything. As far as I remember, they were just using kratom. It's miserable. You get the same aches, chills, and everything else you get from opiates. But all you can do for kratom is basically give them clonidine and robaxin and say hang in there. There's no point in introducing subutex or suboxone into the equation.

Republicans always want less government until it comes to their best interest. Sports gambling.. It was mostly the North Louisiana republicans who voted against it.

Any drug that could be a cheaper and better option than a drug that is sold by a pharmaceutical company.. They want it illegal. But when campaign time comes around.. "Im for less government"..

knew someone with an addiction that beat it with Kratom.

THIS!! I know many people who have used this to beat opiate and alcohol addiction and a couple that beat Xanax addictions with it. I’ve used it myself for pain and some times to relax at night. I’ve taken way too much before and it only made me a little nauseous and/or sleep. I don’t believe for a second that anyone has died from an overdose of kratom by itself.
Similar to CBD, it has and still for help many who’d rather not poison themselves with opiates, alcohol, adderall, etc.
if you actually research kratom a bit you’ll see there are many benefits. I trust it more than the crap in energy drinks. I’ve taken it daily for months and then quit for a while. I’m a little sleepy the first day but fine the next. Quitting coffee was harder than kratom.
My mom has been on opiates for a couple years from knee replacement and then a back surgery and Bali kratom has been amazing in helping her stop taking them including minimizing withdrawals.

Also know many veterans who’ve taken it along with cbd to help with anxiety, ptsd, and pain and they’ve gotten better results than the prescription drugs being pushed on them. This is all on big pharmaceutical companies being threatened as well as the money pol’s receive from them.

Tell me, anyone, that can name a time when they noticed/saw an eeked out person that was on kratom? Bet you can’t. It doesn’t mess you up like that. But I’m sure everyone has seen or knows what people high or drunk on drugs and booze looks like.

This stuff sounds really dangerous to those who chew it every day for 18 years!

"The report showed that some people addicted to the herbal substance chewed it every day for an average of 18 years. Long-term kratom use in this research led to weight loss, anorexia, skin darkening, insomnia and constipation."

let me know when you find someone that’s buying And using Kratom because they are actually trying to treat pain

I know of several former opiate addicts that use it. It doesn't get them high, it just relieves the withdrawal symptoms(pain and cravings) allowing them to either taper off or quit cold turkey.

The amount of opiate addicts that relapse from
Trying out Kratom is monstrous. There’s even drug tests for it on multi panel kits. I would tell opiate people to stay far away from Kratom
