The state of the Kratom space is sordid; fly-by-night vendors abound, and chemists create ultra-addictive forms of the herb, which marketers slap silly labels on and then sell at gas stations. For the longest time, I was unimpressed by Kratom, but recently it has passed 4 clinical trials--giving it a place in the performance optimizers' herbal armory.
I'm joined by Brandon Hayes of Tribe Botanics; we get into the promise and perils of Kratom along with the recent science. Tribe Botanics, based in New Jersey, stands out because of their transparency and quality standards: every batch is third-party lab-tested, and full COAs and exact mitragynine % are published. That's what we look for as Biohackers!
