Is the lab test actually reliable?

Post by rizkiferdy »

hello everyone,

I just want to ask, are these tests truly accurate? How important is the mitragynine content in kratom to you? Do you always look for products with high mitragynine levels?
Let's discuss this together - I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on lab testing. This might spark some debate, but I hope we can keep the conversation respectful and insightful.
Thanks everyone

IMO these so called lab reports could probably be bought. As in someone throwing the lab a wad of cash and they bump up the percentage where they want it bumped up.

Not all labs but IMO a decent number of them.

It would stand to reason, certainly.

Like anything else, though, every single dose requires a leap of faith.

So far, so good on this end.
