INNOVATIVE WAYS TO HELP YOUR KRATOM BUSINESS SURVIVE THE NEW NORMAL

Table of Contents

With the influx of competition, there are many innovative ways to keep your kratom business alive. This article will explain the pharmacologic makeup of kratom and its traditional uses. It will also explore its safety and legality. But before we talk about innovative ways to keep your kratom business alive, let’s first take a look at how kratom is made.

 

kratom’s pharmacologic makeup

As the opioid epidemic continues to ravage the United States, a growing number of patients are looking for alternatives to the highly addictive drugs. While a silver kratom strain is a plant-based substance with a potent, dose-dependent opioid effect, it is still largely unregulated, raising questions about its safety and efficacy. Dr. Petros Levounis, an addiction psychiatrist, has personally used the drug and understands how it can be harmful if not used properly.

Several factors determine the strength of kratom. In Indonesia, kratom is mainly grown in volcanic soil, which can contribute to the accumulation of heavy metals in the leaf powder. Certain regions of the country may need to amend their growing process to account for this issue. Additionally, many farmers still use outdated processing equipment, including coffee grinders from WWII. If these machines can grind tons of dried kratom leaves, they are highly likely to collect heavy metals in the powder.

 

Its traditional use

Despite its potential to bring new customers, kratom is facing a tough road ahead. Increasingly, the government is cracking down on kratom use, and there are many innovative ways to stay in business in this new normal. But how can kratom vendors and advocates keep up with the changes? Here are some ideas to help your kratom business survive the new normal.

First, consider the benefits of kratom. Although the effects can differ, all of them center around its role in Thai agriculture. Thai farmers regularly consume kratom because they feel that it gives them extra energy. While it has similar benefits to coffee, kratom should also be used responsibly. While consuming kratom is beneficial for the body, be careful not to overdo it, or you may find yourself developing an addiction.

 

Its safety

The decision by the Drug Enforcement Administration to outlaw kratom in the U.S. has exposed a vast underground network of kratom advocates. These individuals dedicate their lives to using the plant to relieve pain and wean themselves off opioids. These individuals also recognize the risks of selling an unregulated substance and have organized online to vet vendors and mentor new converts. With their efforts, the industry is on the brink of thriving despite the new normal.

The FDA is looking into the safety of kratom after an outbreak in Grain Valley, Mo., prompted by reports that kratom could cause salmonella. Almost one-third of patients in the outbreak said they took products thought to contain kratom. In addition, the outbreaks caused more than 2,500 hospital visits, and two deaths. As a result, the FDA is taking action to protect public health. In December 2017, 17 members of Congress sent a letter to the FDA, urging him to take action to ensure that kratom is safe.

 

Its legality

The use of kratom, also known as sapodilla, dates back hundreds of years, with a documented history in Thailand dating back over three centuries. Although some experts say that kratom use is even older, today’s kratom consumers are primarily laborers and farmers. While the effects of kratom vary according to the individual user, the majority of kratom consumers are seeking a natural solution to the ill effects of their jobs.

Several reasons may affect the supply of kratom. One potential impact is that the COVID-19 pandemic may lead to shortages in the United States, influencing kratom users to revert to harmful drug use. Moreover, kratom scarcity may result in poor access to effective treatment. Further research is needed to learn how COVID-19 affects the supply of kratom products and its users. It should also be noted that other significant occurrences could affect the availability of kratom.

 

Its future

The DEA’s recent outlawship of kratom has uncovered a nationwide community of passionate kratom enthusiasts. These individuals are dedicated to the plant, which they use as a way to wean themselves off of prescription opioids and cope with pain caused by autoimmune disorders, car accidents, and post-traumatic disorder. However, they are also aware of the risks associated with using an illegal substance, which is why they have banded together online to vet vendors and mentor new converts.

While kratom has centuries of evidence supporting its safety, consuming it in the United States requires different practices than in South East Asia. While it is commonly used to chew or brew tea, in the United States, kratom is sold in micronized form and is often tossed, washed, or processed into extracts. Extracts are more potent than powder, containing anywhere from five to 100 times more active ingredient concentration than powder.
