Today’s Sponsor: Brave Botanicals
Brave Botanicals offers top-quality, organic CBD and Kratom products along with other herbal resources.
This month, we are highlighting the kratom, an herbal supplement that comes from the coffee family, minus the caffeine. It grows in Southeast Asia and is traditionally used for medicinal purposes. Its leaves contain compounds that can have psychotropic and it has gained popularity in the Western world for its potential to help with the management of chronic pain, stress, and anxiety, and some people use it to try to overcome addiction to opioids or to reduce the severity of opioid withdrawal symptoms.
If you want to learn more about kratom, head on over to BraveBotanicals.com to learn about its many uses and dig into the different varieties and dosage.
Interested in trying it out? John Bush also offers a free ounce of kratom, plus 50% off your first order through his site, FreeOunceofKratom.com.
