Kellogg considering ban on kratom sales
KELLOGG — The Kellogg City Council is considering a resolution that would ban the sale of kratom, potentially making Kellogg the first city in Idaho to enact such a ban.
Kratom is a plant-based product derived from the leaves of Mitragyna speciosa, a tree native to Southeast Asia. It contains naturally occurring compounds that can produce stimulant-like effects at lower doses and opioid-like effects at higher doses. In the United States, kratom is commonly sold in powders, capsules and beverages and is often marketed as a natural product.
