Suffolk legislators aim to regulate kratom
Suffolk lawmakers revised a proposed bill to ban certain kratom products and allow the sale of loose leaf kratom, citing concerns over misleading labels and health risks such as addiction and side effects. The legislation aims to regulate kratom by prohibiting pills, capsules, and liquids, while permitting natural forms like tea. Public hearings included testimony from health experts and users, with some residents describing kratom's beneficial effects. The law remains under consideration with a potential vote scheduled for the next meeting.
