What we are — and are not
Kratom Finder is a consumer-facing product-investigation site for kratom and related plant-derived bioactives. We are not medical professionals. Nothing on this site is medical advice. Kratom has documented risks including dependence, hepatotoxicity, and interactions with CNS depressants. If you are symptomatic, contact Poison Control (US: 1-800-222-1222) or an emergency department.
Who writes
Content is produced by our editorial team — independent researchers. We do not use fabricated medical-reviewer personas. Any named contributor will have a verifiable public footprint linked from their byline.
Primary sources we cite
- Peer-reviewed pharmacology: PubMed-indexed research on mitragynine, 7-hydroxymitragynine, and kratom alkaloids.
- FDA: Warning Letters, import alerts, adverse-event reports, and enforcement history.
- DEA: scheduling actions and analogue determinations.
- State regulators: state-level bans and age-limit laws.
- Public court filings: federal and state proceedings involving kratom brands or vendors.
Brand and vendor coverage
Listing is not an endorsement. We describe what vendors claim, what lab data (if any) supports those claims, and what is known about state-level legality. We do not invent star ratings, user reviews, or aggregate scores.
AI disclosure
We use AI tooling for research, drafting, and formatting. No page is published without editorial review. We do not publish AI-generated user reviews, invented case reports, or fabricated medical credentials. Earlier versions of this site contained a fabricated reviewer persona; that material has been removed during the 2026-04 editorial reset.
Corrections
