RE: Scientists Blast FDA, Warning a Ban on Kratom Would Cause More Opioid Deaths

in #life7 years ago

The incompetency of the FDA is remarkable. Every day thousands of perscriptions are handed out for chemicals that are literally killing people. Yet they choose to spend the time and energy to bana plant that has thousands of years experience with humans and is completely safe.

At the end if the day you have to wonder whether there are other interests involved that aren't related to Public health. Maybe a rear that Kratom will make a different in the opiod market share.

thanks for sharing with a in depth look at the situation. This is something that not many people know about but has huge implications for our country.

Sort:  

while your point are genuine i think its a bit harsh to slam FDA with the incompetency tag. could argue while it never happened sooner but the move to weaponize opioid label against kratom consumers is commendable. And of course everyone would feel they should have acted more.
