FDA and FTC have issued four joint warning letters to kratom companies centered on opioid claims. It’s a move that comes on the heels of FDA rejecting an NDI filing on the ingredient for the sixth time. The companies involved are Herbsens Botanicals, Klarity Kratom, Kratom Exchange and Omni Consumer Products, LLC dba YoKratom. The warning letters were the result of an online search of the companies’ websites and social media pages conducted in May and June 2022. The warning letters allege that the companies have been making disease treatment claims on the products, which were sold primarily in capsule form. Among the disease treatment claims were pain relief, blood pressure, and depression indications. Focus on opioid claims One unifying factor, however, were the claims being made by the four companies to help consumers addicted to opioids or other drugs wean themselves off those substances and to help manage the severe symptoms of opioid withdrawal. That prompted the inclu...

Kratom’s two primary alkaloids — 7-hydroxymitragynine and mitragynine — are responsible for producing most of its many pharmacological effects. Alkaloids are organic compounds containing nitrogen, an extremely broad category that includes chemicals like ephedrine, caffeine, and morphine; 7-hydroxymitragynine is unique because it’s a derivative of mitragynine. Alkaloid concentrations can vary between kratom strains, but, on average, 7-hydroxymitragynine makes up only 2% of kratom’s alkaloid budget. For comparison, mitragynine comprises up to 66% of alkaloids in some Thai kratom strains. However, the concentrations alone don’t tell the whole picture, and even minimal 7-hydroxymitragynine concentrations play an important role in influencing kratom’s pharmacological effects. Where Does 7-hydroxymitragynine Come From? Kratom plants produce mitragynine as part of their natural life cycle. As the plants mature, mitragynine is converted to 7-hydroxymitragynine through oxidation, th...

Kava bars are starting to pop up in Lakeland, providing a nightlife scene that doesn’t rely on alcohol. There’s N7 Nitro Kava Bar, Sun Kava & CBD, and Quinteassence Kava Bar, to name a few. Quinteassence opened last November in the Parker Street neighborhood at 839 N. Massachusetts Ave. Owners Jonathan Thoresen, 29, of Lake Wales, and Earnest Joseph Odom, 28, of Lakeland, said they chose to open in that location because they found it to be an affordable place to open a storefront. “Lakeland is a mostly undiluted market when it comes to kava. Florida has had an explosion of growth in the kava community. With no traditional-style kava bars in the area, it was the perfect location,” said Jonathan Thoresen. Referring to their venture as a botanical drink business, they serve kava , kratom , teas and cacao. “We serve traditional drinks from around the world — matcha from Japan, cacao from Ecuador, kava from Vanuatu, the Solomon Islands and Fiji, tea from China and Japan, boba...
