10120/22, 1142 AM Kratom Unsafeavd, eratI u-+h-ynQruc <br />In addition, substances that are made from kratom may be contaminated with salmonella bacteria. <br />As of April 2018, more than 130 people in 38 states became ill with Salmonella after taking kratom. <br />Salmonella poisoning may be fatal, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has linked more <br />than 35 deaths to Salmonella -tainted kratom. Salmonella contamination has no obvious signs, so <br />the best way to avoid becoming ill is to avoid products that may contain it. <br />Kratom is not currently regulated in the United Stales, and federal agencies are taking action to <br />combat false claims about kratom. In the meantime, your safest option is to work with your doctor <br />to find other treatment options. <br />Show References <br />1. Chien GCC, etal.
