KRATOM ADDICTION
There’s a lot of talk about whether or not kratom is addictive.

IN CLOSING
As I end this, for those of you that have never taken kratom before, here’s a few tips you should follow.
First, when you buy kratom and you’re ready to start taking it, make sure you start with a low dosage. You should start with 1-2 grams of kratom, give it 30-45 minutes to kick in and see how you feel.
Pay attention and see if you feel any of the side effects above.
If your first few days of doses go well and you don’t feel any side effects, you should be good to go.
Everyone reacts to kratom differently, the only way you can know for sure is by trying it for yourself.
