Tablets that claim to consist, in part, of the leaf of a plant called kratom often have higher concentrations of the active ingredient than one can get from the plant alone, but the pills are pills easily available, and enforcement and testing of these products seems to exist in a gray area.

Go figure, but yeah - kratom extract can be deadly, y’all.

Reminder to use ethno-medicinal plants in moderation. Just because it’s “natural” doesn’t mean it won’t kill you at a certain dose. There’s an LD50 for everything.
