Alabama Bans Kratom: Stores Face Consequences
from Huntsville News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Alabamas Attorney General Steve Marshall has issued cease-and-desist orders to stores selling kratom-laced products, which have been banned since 2016. Kratom, a plant-based substance, is often hidden in items marketed for pain relief and relaxation, and can lead to strong addiction and withdrawals similar to opioids. Local police chiefs report it causing relapses, family breakdowns, and even suicides. Officers will visit stores to ensure compliance, and businesses can hand over the products for destruction or face felony charges. Addiction and mental health resources are available by calling 1-800-662-4357. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
