MN cracks down on kratom: Should lawmakers ban it?
Minnesota Governor Walz signed a bill that raises the age limit for purchasing and possessing kratom. Kratom is a plant from Southeast Asia that has been promoted as a natural treatment for anxiety and drug dependence. Dr. Alta DeRoo, medical director at Hazelden Betty Ford, explains what kratom does, the opioid-like effects of high doses, and why she believes the new law lacks teeth. She also shares what parents should look out for if they suspect their child is using the product.
