HHS Schedules 7OH: Why We Support the Ban

by

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has issued an emergency Schedule 1 classification for 7OH Kratom products, citing its potency, safety concerns, and risk for abuse.

Unlike natural Kratom leaves or powder, 7OH is a manipulated alkaloid extracted and concentrated far beyond its natural form. This scheduling is a clear signal from regulators: synthetic or ultra-potent Kratom derivatives have no place in a safe, responsible marketplace.

Why We Support This Decision

At Left Coast Kratom, we have always opposed synthetic or manipulated forms of Kratom like 7OH. This ban helps reinforce the distinction between authentic, plant-based Kratom and dangerous lab-made alternatives, safeguarding consumers and advancing industry credibility.

Natural Kratom vs. Synthetic 7O

Natural Kratom products, derived directly from the leaf, have been used traditionally for centuries and represent the foundation of our industry. 7OH, however, is neither traditional nor safe. Its potency exceeds what nature intended, and this kind of manipulation risks drawing negative attention to legitimate Kratom use.

Our 100% Natural Extracts

Left Coast Kratom is proud to offer pure, naturally derived Kratom extracts—crafted from leaf or powder only, never synthetics. These products provide enhanced convenience and concentration while staying true to the plant.

Stay Engaged: Protect Natural Kratom

While this ban addresses unsafe synthetic derivatives, the next challenge is ensuring natural Kratom remains protected. Join us in advocating for:

  • • Regulation over prohibition.
  • • Science-driven policy that differentiates natural Kratom from manipulated alkaloids.
  • • Consumer education to eliminate misinformation.

Growing Green: Ethical Concerns In The Kratom Industry

by

Welcome back, Left Coast Kratom community! Today, we are delving into a vital and often overlooked aspect of the Kratom industry: ethics. From responsible sourcing to sustainability, the ethical considerations in the Kratom industry extend beyond the surface. Join us as we unpack these issues and discuss the importance of ethical practices in the Kratom supply chain.

Why Does Ethical Sourcing Matter?

Just like the journey of a coffee bean from farm to cup, Kratom leaves undergo a complex journey from the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia to your doorstep. Ethical sourcing refers to the responsibility of ensuring this journey respects both people and the environment. Here are some reasons why it matters:

Workers’ Rights

At the start of the Kratom journey are the farmers and harvesters. These individuals are often local residents of the Southeast Asian regions where Kratom grows naturally. It’s crucial that these workers receive fair wages, work under safe conditions, and that their rights are respected.

Environmental Impact

Kratom, or Mitragyna Speciosa, is a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia. The rapid growth of the Kratom industry can lead to exploitation and unsustainable harvesting practices, potentially harming these lush ecosystems. Ethical sourcing ensures that harvesting is done sustainably, preserving the environment for future generations.

Sustainable Harvesting: A Crucial Part of Ethical Kratom

Sustainable harvesting ensures that the natural environments where Kratom grows are not depleted or damaged. This involves practices like not over-harvesting trees, allowing trees to mature fully before harvesting, and responsibly planting new trees to replace those that have been harvested.

These practices ensure that the delicate balance of these ecosystems is maintained, preserving biodiversity and allowing the Kratom industry to thrive without causing ecological harm.

Fair Trade: Ensuring Equitable Practices

Fair trade practices play an essential role in the ethical Kratom industry. This involves establishing direct relationships with Kratom farmers, ensuring they are paid a fair wage for their labor, and providing them with the tools and knowledge to sustainably harvest and produce Kratom. Fair trade practices create a more equitable Kratom industry where every individual along the supply chain benefits.

Transparent Supply Chains: Knowing Where Your Kratom Comes From

Transparency in the Kratom industry involves companies being open about their sourcing and production processes. This means sharing information about where the Kratom is grown, how it is harvested, and how it is processed. Transparent supply chains allow consumers to make informed decisions and support companies that uphold ethical practices.

The Role of Consumers in Ethical Kratom Sourcing

As consumers, each one of us plays a vital role in supporting ethical practices in the Kratom industry. By choosing to purchase Kratom from vendors that prioritize ethical sourcing, fair trade, and transparency, we can help drive demand for ethical Kratom and influence positive change within the industry.

At Left Coast Kratom, we’re proud to uphold these values. We’re dedicated to providing high-quality, ethically sourced Kratom, maintaining a transparent supply chain, and supporting the hardworking farmers who make our business possible. We believe that together, we can make a difference and ensure that the Kratom industry continues to grow in a way that benefits both people and the planet.

Ethics in the Kratom industry is an ongoing conversation, one that involves everyone from farmers and harvesters to vendors and consumers. By keeping these conversations alive, we can continue to learn, improve, and ensure that the Kratom industry thrives ethically and sustainably for generations to come.

The Best Kratom Products For A Life On The Go

by

Do you live an active lifestyle that frequently puts you on the road? Do you also enjoy Kratom? Well, then we have some products for you.

No more worrying about carrying messy Kratom powder or measuring the right serving size of Kratom. There are better ways to enjoy your Kratom when you’re not at home.

In this blog post, we will be looking at a few of our best options.

Kratom Shots & Extracts

Kratom shots and extracts are not only convenient but also come in compact bottles that are easy to store and carry. They provide a quick and efficient way to incorporate Kratom into your busy lifestyle. When it comes to their composition, it’s essential to understand the distinctions between Kratom shots and extracts.

Kratom shots typically contain Kratom extract as their primary ingredient, combined with other components commonly found in energy drinks. Essentially, Kratom shots are like energy drinks with the added benefit of a serving of Kratom.

On the other hand, Kratom extracts are highly concentrated forms of Kratom. They deliver the highest serving size possible and are renowned for their concentration. You can easily incorporate a small amount of Kratom extract into your preferred beverages, such as coffee, tea, or juice, or even add it to various food items like brownies, salads, and desserts.

Kratom Tablets, Capsules, & Softgels

Capsules, tablets, and softgels of Kratom are notably convenient and user-friendly, topping the list of easy-to-use options. Their portability makes them a perfect companion, no matter where you’re heading. When the mood strikes, you can simply slip one or two into your mouth discreetly.

Nonetheless, it’s important to ensure that the elements composing the capsules, tablets, or softgels, such as the capsule shells or gel materials, do not raise concerns. For example, Kraken Kratom takes pride in its commitment to use 100% vegan components, which are devoid of any preservatives, gelatin, wheat, starch, or animal derivatives in the manufacturing of its Kratom products.

Kratom Tea Bags

For enthusiasts of tea, Kratom tea bags from Left Coast Kratom offer the perfect fusion of convenience and discretion. These user-friendly tea bags make for an ideal companion for on-the-move Kratom users. Simply add them to hot water, let it infuse for a while, and voila – your Kratom tea is ready to savor.

Much like traditional tea bags, these ones are packed with finely crushed Kratom leaves. Most manufacturers explicitly state the alkaloid content per tea bag on their product labels, enabling an informed choice. Additionally, Kratom tea bags typically come in larger quantities, making them a cost-effective option for bulk purchases. For instance, Left Coast Kratom guarantees a dozen tea bags in each package, irrespective of the strain you opt for.

Kratom Gummies

Gummies have an irresistible charm that appeals to all – be it children, adults, or the elderly. Recognizing this universal love for gummies, the Kratom industry didn’t waste any time in presenting Kratom-infused gummies. These gummies, radiant and bursting with flavor, have revolutionized the Kratom experience.

These gummies are endowed with a measured quantity of potent Kratom extract. To ensure clarity for their customers, vendors generally specify the extract concentration or alkaloid content present in their gummies, enabling users to accurately gauge the ideal serving size.

Left Coast Kratom, a renowned name in the industry, brings to the table Kratom gummies in an enticing array of flavors and colors – including raspberry, orange, and key lime. The all-natural formulation of Left Coast Kratom gummies comprises corn syrup, sugar, water, pectin, citric acid, Kratom extract, and natural flavors and colors. These gummies are free from any artificial preservatives, thereby aligning with the company’s commitment to quality and natural ingredients.

Kratom Honey Sticks

In an industry known for creative and innovative consumption methods, Kratom honey sticks offered by Left Coast Kratom stand out as a clever invention. Essentially, these are honey-infused Kratom teas, stylishly encapsulated within convenient plastic sticks. But their practicality extends far beyond this. Kratom honey sticks not only ensure portability of your Kratom, they also enable discreet consumption. After all, who would give a second glance to someone casually enjoying their honey stick?

Each Kratom honey stick is accompanied by detailed information on its alkaloid content. These handy sticks go beyond convenience and extend to versatility as well. They can be incorporated into your tea, juice, or any other sweet beverage, giving it a delightful Kratom twist.

In Conclusion

How Do We Make Kratom Extracts?

by

Kratom is a medicinal plant native to Southeast Asia that has grown in popularity due to its potential health benefits. The active compounds in kratom, known as alkaloids, are responsible for these effects, and are the focus of much research. In this article, we will explore how kratom extracts are made, and how their alkaloid content can differ from that of whole kratom leaves.

What Are Kratom Extracts?

Kratom extract is a concentrated form of the alkaloids found in the leaves of the Mitragyna Speciosa tree, more commonly known as Kratom. Kratom extracts come in two forms: either a liquid or a powder. Extracts are produced using a variety of methods, allowing manufacturers to create a variety of different Kratom products popular among consumers.

Extraction Process

Kratom extraction involves the use of solvents to extract the alkaloids from the raw kratom material. Common solvents used in kratom extraction are ethanol, acetone, and water. During this process, the alkaloids are dissolved into the solvent, and the resulting mixture is then filtered and purified to remove any impurities. The final product is a concentrated extract, which is typically either a liquid or a powder.

Kratom extracts can vary significantly in terms of their alkaloid content. To ensure consistent alkaloid content, high-quality extracts are produced using analytical methods such as high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). This allows manufacturers to quantify the alkaloid content of the extract and ensure it meets their desired standards. Moreover, this process helps manufacturers create extracts with specific ratios of mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine. As a result, researchers can use these extracts to study the interactions of the two alkaloids and the potential medical benefits they can provide.

How Do You Take Kratom Extract?

The most common way to consume Kratom extract is to dissolve it in water and drink it as a tea. Alternatively, some people dissolve kratom extract in alcohol or juice. It is important to note that kratom extract is much more concentrated than traditional kratom powder, so it is important to be mindful of dosing when taking kratom extract. To prevent adverse reactions, it is best to start with a very small dose and wait at least an hour to determine how the extract affects you before increasing the dose.

The Different Types Of Kratom Extracts

Liquid Kratom Extracts (Kratom Shots)

Kratom shots are liquid Kratom extracts that contain concentrated levels of alkaloids. They provide a quick and convenient way to experience the effects of Kratom without having to prepare and consume large amounts of the raw leaves.

Powdered Kratom Extracts

Powdered Kratom extracts are made by extracting the alkaloids from raw Kratom material using solvents, then filtering and purifying the resulting mixture. The final product is a concentrated powder that contains all of the alkaloids Kratom is known for.

Kratom Tablets & Softgels

Kratom tablets and softgels are an easy and convenient way to take Kratom, as they contain pre-measured amounts of concentrated alkaloids. These tablets and softgels offer a consistent experience, with varying concentrations of mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine depending on the strain.

Kratom Gummies

Kratom gummies are a convenient way to experience the effects of Kratom, as they contain pre-measured amounts of highly concentrated alkaloids. Kratom gummies provide a consistent experience, with varying concentrations of mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine depending on the strain.

What Is The Difference Between Kratom Powder & Kratom Extract?

Kratom powder and kratom extract have some similarities and differences. Kratom powder is made from the raw leaves of the kratom tree, which are ground up into a fine powder. This powder contains the plant’s natural alkaloids, giving it the effects associated with kratom. Kratom extract, on the other hand, is a more concentrated form of kratom, created by boiling down the leaves into a concentrated liquid. This liquid contains a higher concentration of the plant’s alkaloids, providing a more robust experience.

Summary

Kratom extracts are becoming increasingly popular among those looking to experience the benefits of Kratom. With so many different types of extract, it can be difficult to know which one is best for you. Fortunately, at Left Coast Kratom, we offer a variety of high quality Kratom extracts to choose from, in a range of concentrations and different vein colors. Our team of experts are here to help answer any questions you may have, and provide you with the best Kratom extract for your needs.
