History of Kratom Use in Thai and United States

The Thai government banned the cultivation of the tree on August 3, 1943, through the ‘Kratom Act 2486’, this in response to an increase in its use when opium became a costly commodity and the government was trying to earn the control of the opium market. And in 1979, he classified kratom in category V, out of 5, in the narcotics classification.

Kratom is not prohibited by any of the international drug treaties, so the existing prohibitions are national or local, such as the most recent ones in the United States.

Despite the ban, the consumption of kratom leaves is not frowned upon by the common population, and in recent years its use has resurfaced in the form of a cocktail known as 4X100, which is consumed abundantly on party nights; as described in the report, A fading thai drug finds its resurgence in a cocktail; This cocktail has as essential ingredients infusion of kratom, cough syrup, coca-cola, and ice; although the inclusion of other substances, including benzodiazepines, is also reported.

Kratom in the United States

In the context of the opiate crisis, kratom derivatives have expanded vigorously in the northern country. “It began to be used in the United States in the last 20 years, and in the last 5 years, its use increased. We estimate that between 3 and 5 million people in the US, they consume it as an alternative to conventional drugs, “Susan Ash of the American Kratom Association explained to RedstormScientific.

For its part, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) recognizes some benefits of kratom but warns of its abuse. “The DEA knows of cases in which the consumption of kratom resulted in psychosis, hallucinations, depression and even death,” said Russ Baer, ​​spokesman for the agency, adding: “15 deaths caused by kratom from their consumption are known and or combined with alcohol or other substances between 2014 and 2016. Two happened in the USA. and the rest in other parts of the world.” 

With these arguments, the US government decided to ban its consumption from 2016 temporarily. In March 2018, Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Tennessee, Vermont, and Wisconsin made kratom illegal, and the United States Army prohibited its soldiers from using it.

The relegalization of kratom

The day before Christmas, the Thai government de-legalized the production, import, export, possession, and use of kratom products for medicinal purposes. The National Legislative Assembly approved the measure by 166 votes in favor and zeroed against, with 13 abstentions, which shows the broad approval of the medicinal use of the plant. 

The Thai government had previously considered legalizing kratom in 2004, 2009, and 2013; This being the fourth time when he achieved his legalization in the medicinal framework. With the reform of kratom for sale for therapeutic use, perhaps we are about to see a series of therapies and medicines for people with drug dependence based on this plant. We will continue to hear about this sacred plant.

Uses of kratom: Traditional and Medicinal

Kratom is used medicinally among indigenous populations in countries where it grows wild. The leaves are chewed to relieve skeletal muscle pain and increase energy, appetite, and sexual desire. It is also used by day laborers and farm workers as a stimulant of customary use to resist the exhausting days of work, as happens with the coca leaf in the Andes or the khat in the Arabian peninsula. In Thailand, the kratom was “used as a snack to receive guests and was part of a ritual of worshiping ancestors and goods.” 

In 1836, kratom was reported to have been used as a substitute for opium in Malaysia. Kratom was also used as a substitute for opium in Thailand in the 19th century. This use as a substitute drug has become widespread, a study by the Transnational Institute indicates that many people use kratom to abandon their dependence on heroin, alcohol and even tobacco, this because it has properties that help reduce the body pain, decreases damage from withdrawal symptoms and helps manage detoxification.

This use as a substitute drug has made it famous in some regions where heroin dependence is high. Susan Ash, spokeswoman for the American Kratom Association, in an interview with BBC Mundo, said that “kratom blocks the brain’s kappa receptor (the protein that helps alter the effects of pain perception, among others), which is why if you take a lot you won’t feel something more intense like people do when they abuse drugs.”

How Trump Administration Could Affect the Cannabis Industry

United States President, Donald Trump,set a very determined agenda a week after his inaugural ceremony. One of the most controversial orders was signed just hours after his January 20 inauguration. Donald Trump authorized the executive order for the federal agencies to roll back certain details of Affordable Care Act or also known as the Obamacare. This and some other directives have already been signed in less than a month after Trump had his oath of office.

However, it is still unclear as to where the Trump administration really stands in terms of the marijuana legalization concerns.

The White House had held a press briefing stating that it is expecting the law enforcement to be firm in coercing federal cannabis laws if and when they encounter conflict with any of the states where recreational marijuana is permitted.

Sean Spicer, White House Press Secretary, had stressed that we will be seeing greater implementation of the federal illegal drug laws where marijuana is still considered as a prohibited drugs.

This is in contrast to the Obama administration’s stand which stated that federal government will not interfere in states where recreational marijuana is authorized.Obama had said immediately after Washington and Colorado legalized recreational marijuana that the federal enforcement had bigger issues to chase than clamping down marijuana consumption in states that are already considering it as legal.

At the moment, the marijuana community is really hopeful. As described by RedstormScientific contributor Debra Borchardt, below are some of the possible scenarios that might happen in this marijuana legalization saga.

Trump administration declares eradication of both recreational and medical marijuana.

Donald Trump has been vocal about eradicating some of the things associated to former President Barrack Obama’s administration. If President Trump was able to sign an order to roll back Obamacare that quick knowing that 22 million people can be affected, we could say that the marijuana community is going to be of little significance to the current administration.

Medical marijuana continues while recreational use gets terminated.

The Trump government could start raiding recreational marijuana retailers and they could get their money without any crime charges. These dispensaries and businesses will surely be under pressure if this is going to be the case.

Existing marijuana markets can proceed with business but incoming states could be blocked or delayed

A lot of people believe the Trump government might not prioritize the marijuana legalization matters. The new administration could push the brakes on the states surfacing marijuana legalization by pressuring those that don’t have Rohrbacher amendment protection.

Nothing changes.

There is a big possibility that things will be left untouched and maintained as they are. The current states that have legalized this plant or drug, whether for medical or recreational or both, could be left alone without any interference from the federal government.

Trump administration supports marijuana all the way.

This is what the marijuana community has been praying for. As everyone knows, Donald Trump is a businessman after all and a lot of his cabinet members are businessmen as well. He wants jobs for the Americans and the legal cannabis commerce has already proven to be a massive industry employing 100,000 jobs nationwide. Marijuana legalization could mean this herb will be removed from the list of illegal substances and could become a new product for export. Thus, this will create a huge revenue for the country.

These are the possible scenarios that might happen under the Trump administration. Its specific community can only wait and hope for the best scenario to take place, which obviously for them is the marijuana legalization.
