Kratom Health and Safety: Potential Side-Effects

Kratom Safety: Kratom is considered to be relatively safe when used in moderate doses. However, like any substance, there are potential side effects and risks associated with using kratom. Some of the most common side effects of kratom include nausea, constipation, dry mouth, and dizziness. Additionally, high doses of kratom can lead to more serious side effects, such as seizures and liver toxicity. However, these side-effects are rare and typically only exist with using high doses over a long period of time. 

It's important to note that the safety of kratom can vary depending on the specific strain and source. Kratom from unreliable sources may contain contaminants or be adulterated with other substances, which can increase the risk of adverse effects. To minimize the risk of negative side effects, it's always best to purchase kratom from a reputable source and follow the recommended dose guidelines.
