However, if you start taking Kratom and you take it every day, you will need to take more and you will notice potentially this has never really been my case because I take breaks regularly.

You should be aware that that's a thing and that it is a capital D drug. I would say it's not as safe as marijuana, although if you have a family history of like schizophrenia, it certainly does not seem to have any of the kind of like ability to incite psychotic breaks that that does.

but it's harder on your body, you know, than particularly like consuming marijuana in a way that doesn't involve smoking. But it's not as hard on your body based on all of the evidence that exists, for example, drinking, particularly like if you're talking about someone who's using Kratom daily versus drinking daily, you're almost certainly better off using Kratom daily.

I think that's a generally responsible way to categorize it. The ways that you can do it is you take a powder that is just the ground up flour. It is very hard to hurt yourself with just the powder. You would have to take such a massive quantity of it. However, just like with marijuana, people now make extracts and those extracts are extremely concentrated.

But it can be really bad and unpleasant. So I would say if you're going to do it, do something like get a tea, stay away from the extracts. Once you start going down that road, it's very easy to develop much more of a dependency on it. That's my Kratom speech, okay?
