Today, I take a step back and think through things a bit as I record to give my broader perspective of the continuing coverage of the Tampa Bay Times’ recently published reports on their deep dive into the safety of kratom, hundreds of overdoses where kratom was listed as a contributing factor, and the lobbying and commercial network working behind the scenes in the kratom industry.

S12 E31 - FDA EXPOSED?: Why the agency has just BAFFLED pretty much everyone
Today, I dive into an ongoing legal case where someone pleaded guilty to purposefully mislabeling kratom products being shipped into the US from Indonesia. There has been a recent development that has completely baffled people in the justice department and the legal world. The lead prosecutor in the case has no idea what the FDA is doing. I think this is very revealing.

S12 E30 - Kratom Capsule Experiment Results: A Fascinating Test From An Amazing Listener of the show
Today, I share the results of a test that was conducted by Paul, a listener to the show. He has contributed to my knowledge of kratom in more ways than one, oftentimes listening to episodes and immediately writing in to inform me of the things I was mistaken about, the things that got right, or at least the things I’ve speculated on that turned out to be good guesses! So I really appreciate him sharing this study with me and I hope everyone values this sort of input from other listeners. This is EXACTLY what I want this show to be about: sharing the things that you all, everyone, knows and cares about so that you all, everyone, can know and care about those things! *** HAPPY HIPPO Discount ***: Coupon code EVERYTHINGKRATOM at checkout, or this link - https://happyhippoherbals.com/r?id=ul2k1j DISCLAIMER: KRATOM IS NOT APPROVED BY THE FDA.
