This week we’re covering the Ascension Parish council’s kratom sales ban, which did go through at their last 8/18 meeting! We look into a study that was first covered by Kratom Science regarding what researchers of Midwestern University are saying could be dangerous amounts of lead in unregulated kratom products. As well as Florida’s Drug Policy Advisory Council introduction and subsequent discussion on banning kratom.
We’ll also discuss my latest trips down to Boston’s Mass and Cass (AKA: methadone mile) where he handed out a bunch of free kratom from Christopher’s Organic Botanicals along with wellness packs to those in need. I also introduce my latest project of creating a course, as well as shifting the focus of the show to helping people who are struggling with addiction, specifically Suboxone dependence. I’m very excited about this shift! I feel I get the most reward and others get the most benefit from my work when I’m helping to guide others move quicker through the same struggles I went through. If you’re feeling stuck on Suboxone, have tried other programs and open to a more holistic approach please don’t hesitate to reach out!
Thank you so much for joining us! Enjoy the show!
