Whole Earth Gifts Disclaimers and Safety Information
Every disclosure that appears anywhere on this site is collected here, in full, in one place. Nothing here is a summary of something longer. Nothing here is the fine print version of what you read elsewhere. These are the same words, whole.
You’ve probably noticed there are a lot of them. That’s deliberate, and it’s worth explaining why.
Kratom sits in an unusual position. The Food and Drug Administration has approved no kratom product for any use. There is no federal manufacturing standard. The rules change from one state to the next, and sometimes from one county to the next. Almost everything that has gone wrong in this industry went wrong in the marketing. Vendors told customers what kratom would do for them, in language the law does not permit and the evidence does not support.
We built this company on the opposite bet. We tell you what a product is, where it came from, and what an independent lab found in it. We do not tell you what it will do for you, because we cannot know that. Neither can anyone else selling it to you. The warnings on this site are part of the same posture. A caution that appears once, in small text, at the foot of a page nobody scrolls to, is a warning designed not to be read. Ours appear where the decision is being made.
This page exists so none of it’s hard to find. If you saw one of these on a product page or at the end of an article and want the rest, this is the rest.
