A comparison written by a Canadian vendor, so read it with that in mind. Here is where domestic genuinely wins, and where US vendors are genuinely better.

Kratom is not scheduled under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, but that is only half the picture. Here is the accurate legal position, with primary sources.
