The FDA And KCPA
Most of us are aware of the fact that The FDA and Kratom industry, represented by the American Kratom Association, AKA, are debating and fighting over the legalization of the Kratom.
The FDA has a history of spreading false information and news about Kratom; some of these include the false news spread about deaths of people using Kratom with no evidence.
The Big Pharma is behind all of this as Kratom provides a herbal alternative to many analgesics and psychoactive medicine drugs; the FDA and the Big Pharma are head over heels to make Kratom a controlled drug and stop it from reaching people.
AKA and Kratom Consumer Protection Act, on the other hand, are striving to make Kratom safe for consumption by people by providing laws and acts to bring safe Kratom into the market only and prevent the sales of dangerous and contaminated herb that causes false news and calamities.
However, this makes it difficult for the FDA to ban Kratom, and hence FDA is making it difficult for the states and Kratom Consumer Protection act to be accepted. By utilizing the Covid-19 pandemic and delaying the court dates and acceptance by governments and spreading of new false news and information, they have made it very difficult for The States to accept the Act as they are under pressure by the FDA and the Big Pharma been behind this.
