Please review all the evidence about Kratom and its alkaloids. There are no actual documented cases of overdose or any of the typical negative side effects associated with other opiates. Kratom alkaloids may cause withdrawals if taken too often, but so does alcohol. Many people’s lives have been saved since finding out about Kratom. I am the director of operations for a major laboratory in Houston Texas and I am able to live a perfectly normal life while taking Kratom and specifically 7-hydroxymitraginine. Please don’t schedule this inadvertently and cause more problems for the citizens of your state.
