(Newswire.net — June 8, 2020) — Buying kratom online can be a confusing process. With hundreds of retailers to choose from and a myriad of different kratom ‘strains’ being offered, the prospect of making your first kratom purchase can seem a bit daunting. Where to start and what to choose?

Reputable Vendor

Look for a kratom vendor that has a long established history in the market. The recent rise in kratom’s popularity has seen a sharp increase in the number of new online kratom shops popping up with unscrupulous retailers frequently reselling material sourced at the cheapest prices. 

Kratom.com was a pioneer in the kratom market being one of the first companies to start shipping kratom to the United States in 2001 and is currently the market leader in kratom extracts with a commercial line of Mitragynine-based kratom extracts ranging from 10% Mitragynine Full Spectrum Extract to a 99% Mitragynine Pure Alkaloid Isolate. The very same high-quality kratom powder that is used in their Kratom Extract production is available for sale in it’s all-natural powdered form through their site shop.kratom.com.

Lab Reports

Lab testing is important these days. At a minimum you want to check and make sure your online vendor performs:

  • Microbiology testing against salmonella, e.coli, yeast & mold 
  • HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography) testing to determine the Mitragynine content or strength of the product
  • Residual Solvent testing to ensure that kratom extract-based products are within safe USP 467 Guidelines. 

Reputable vendors will have reports easily available online or be able to provide them when requested. 

Industry Support

The kratom industry has been in the cross-hairs of the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and the DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency) for the last several years despite more and more States developing their own local regulations in an effort to provide some consumer protection to their constituents. Kratom.com works closely with both the AKA (American Kratom Association) and the Indonesian Government in an effort to foster the development of reasonable regulations that are beneficial to all stakeholders in the market.

Impressive Knowledge Base

Is knowing where your kratom comes from, how it’s grown, harvested and processed and why your body reacts to kratom in a particular way important to you?

Kratom.com is more than an online shop. The site is thick with literature about the history of kratom, the importance of Mitragynine (the key alkaloid responsible for kratom’s pain-relieving effects), modern day kratom plantations and international headlines surrounding kratom and it’s status worldwide.
