Sorry if the tag is wrong I couldn’t decide between biology or chemistry.
So I’m in New York City for the weekend on vacation this week. Where I live I have never seen this stuff despite being in a weed legal state.
I’ve passed a bunch of stores just today that have signs that say “weed and kratom”. I tried doing some google searches but it honestly left me more confused than resolved lol.
I know it’s apparently all natural and might help with opioid withdrawal (I’m not addicted to painkillers I’m just saying what I read)
So basically I’m just confused as to what this stuff even is?
Edit : I have no interest in it, I’m just curious what it is
In: Biology
It’s a leaf that’s native to Southeast Asia, and when chewed or smoked in high enough doses, it can cause an opioid like effect. While it is currently legal, there are still dangers to its use. It can be addictive and cause withdrawals and use can also lead to seizures and possibly death. It may help with opioid withdrawals but withdrawals from kratom can also be pretty bad.
