Serving Size: It is important to consume kratom in moderation. Traditional use of kratom is from the leaf material, where very low doses of the active compounds are consumed.

Quality: Make sure your kratom is from a reputable vendor who is performing quality testing on their material as there have been reports of adulterated kratom products in the US market.

As with any herbal supplement, make sure to discuss kratom consumption with a healthcare professional if you are on any medications, other supplements, or have pre-existing conditions to make sure kratom is right for you.

Here at Botanic Tonics, we use green vein kratom leaf, sourced from Indonesia. Each lot of natural kratom leaf used is processed in a facility under current good manufacturing practices to ensure its quality and unadulterated status. Natural kratom leaf is NOT an opioid and is not approved as a drug. Certain jurisdictions in the US have put restrictions on the sale and use of kratom, so be sure to check your local laws prior to use.
