If you’ve been looking for safer options for pain relief, kratom — a Southeast Asian plant with at least 40 naturally occurring bioactive alkaloids — has probably popped up in your search results more than once.

But, how do can you know the differences in quality, potency and safety between naturally sourced kratom products?

Alexander Karp, chief scientific officer for ETHA Natural Botanics, describes his journey to find pain relief with kratom, the perils of an unregulated marketplace and why you should not mute the Pain Teacher this week on Spirit Gym.

In the Members section of this podcast, legendary skateboarder Danny Way joins the conversation to share his experiences with kratom as a more effective pain reliever than all the previous ones.

For Spirit Gym listeners: Save 15% on Element 115 kratom products developed by Alexander and Danny at Element 115 Botanicals or ETHA Natural Botanicals via the promo code PAUL15. (Special offers from Spirit Gym guests are time-sensitive and at their discretion to redeem after 30 days.)
