Show Notes
Alabamas Attorney General Steve Marshall issues statewide cease-and-desist order against businesses selling kratom-derived compounds, including mitragynine and hydroxymitragynine, listed as Schedule I controlled substances. Lab tests confirm these compounds in retail products, often marketed as natural remedies without clear labels. The order aims to protect public health from unregulated products posing serious dangers. Businesses face severe enforcement for ignoring the order, including asset seizures, felony charges, and hefty civil fines. State leaders urge everyone to avoid products suspected of having kratom ingredients and stay alert for better labeling in the future.
