Hello, I have a coaching client that has had long-term, high dose use of kratom, she takes up to 15tbspns/day, increasing her dosage over the past 5-7 years. She would like to wean off the Kratom. Can you provide suggestions to help her with the symptom withdrawal and also to deal with feelings of anxiety and depression which initiated the use of kratom? Thank you

Wow that is a lot of Kratom, I would treat withdrawal like opiate withdrawal, Gotu Kola (also anxiolytic), Ashwagandha (also anxiolytic), Vitex, Chinese Polygala (also anxiolytic), Passionflower (also anxiolytic), and do it slowly over 4- 8 months.

Thank you very much. She is also reading a book called, "Kratom, the glass half full." It also provides a protocol to slowly wean off kratom. Such a dangerous plant "medicine" all too available for people who think they are taking safe remedies.
