Does Kratom have dangers?

Mitragyna speciosa or Kratom is having its fame today. The kratom tree is large tree native to South East Asian countries particularly Thailand and Malaysia. The natives used the leaves of kratom for medicinal purposes such as dealing with pain and treating diarrhea. In rehabilitation, people who are dependents on opiates and morphine are experiencing withdrawal symptoms when they stop taking the drugs. Medical approach was proven to use kratom as an alternative to opium and morphine. It was proven that giving kratom in low dose then gradually lessened until total withdrawal results to milder and safer withdrawal symptoms compared to withdrawal symptoms from morphine and opiates. There are other benefits that kratom claims to provide. They say that kratom is a great stimulant therefore the natives used it as a sexual stimulant, improving and enhancing their sexual activity. It can also create a mild effect for the minds. All of these effects are made possible by the alkaloid contents of kratom such as mitragyne.
The kratom leaves are chewed, smoked and boiled as tea by the natives. They have used the leaves for a long period of time now and no records show that someone had suffered negatively in taking kratom. There are no official records about addiction to kratom but they say that dependence to it is possible. Taking kratom in low doses is safe but ingesting higher dose regularly for a long time may produce undesirable results. The body may develop a tolerance against the alkaloids found in mitragyna, creating a need to increase the dose to achieve the desired effects. There is an overdose of kratom. Some say that an individual may experience hallucinations, nausea, delusion, tremors, coordination problems and restlessness. Daily intake of kratom for a long time may result to skin darkening, aggression, nervousness and constipation. Kratom is not recommended to be use by people having schizophrenia, cardiac, renal, ulcers, hepatic problems, low blood pressure and pregnant women.

The answer is Yes and No and unlike Opiates, withdrawals can very greatly from person to person.. Kratom is not addictive if taken moderately.. Kratom does not affect the same receptors as do narcotics such as Opium and Heroin. Kratom effects the Delta Opoid and only very high doses can lead to effecting the Mu Opiod which is what is effected by such things as Opim and Herioin and where the addiction can start

Alot of Kratom burners burn quite a bit daily in which case it can be addictive Kratom basically has a stimulating . There were reports that Thai laborers that used Kratom daily for a long time developed dark patches on their skin and and an unhealthy appearance.  And, when they stopped taking Kratom, they got all the same withdrawal symptoms as opiates.  While higher doses can provide a person with significant narcotic effects. Some cultures use it to enhance the sexual intercourse and to treat diarrhea. Kratom can be used as a substitute for opium and it is also very efficient in moderating opium addictions. It stops the cravings and moderates the withdrawal because its alkaloids bind to the delta receptors in the brain. It can also be used for detoxification of those addicted to methadone.

some other info
Some reoirst of kratom use involved visualizations and vivid dreams as side effects of the therapy. Some studies suggest that it also could be used for the treatment of depression. One’s mood is determined by the levels of serotonin, dopamine and opiates. Most chemical drugs are related to the levels of serotonin because it does not involve an addiction.
Certain researches have shown that kratom could affect the mood of a person in a positive manner. Kratom can also come in very handy when it comes to the treatment of adult attention deficit disorder because of its stimulating and mood lifting properties.
