    Are they mild? I’ve heard stories of otherwise sober people developing severe addictions to them pretty quickly. And yeah it’s kava and kratom extracts in far higher doses than would be used in traditional medicine.

      I’ve drank a ton of Kratom seltzers and they’re all pretty mild, imo. These pills made from modified extract feel like actual opiates and can actually get you pretty blitzed. I think there’s also some kind of metabolic mechanism that limits how high you can even get from normal kratom that doesn’t apply with the pills and whatnot that contain modified alkaloids.
