IS KRATOM SAFE? IS IT ADDICTIVE?
Kratom has been used safely in southeast Asia for hundreds of years and millions of Americans are currently believed to be using kratom safely. American researchers are studying the safety profile of the plant. It is believed that kratom should be used in moderation as daily use, and/or use of extract products, may increase the likelihood of dependence. Steding & Sons Mercantile encourages education, moderation, and responsible consumption.
