7-OH and Kratom

7-hydroxymitragynine is associated with Mitragyna speciosa, commonly known as kratom. However, naturally occurring trace amounts in kratom leaf should not automatically be treated as equivalent to products containing concentrated or enhanced 7-OH.

This distinction has become particularly important as regulators have focused on concentrated 7-OH products.

The FDA specifically distinguishes concentrated 7-OH products from natural kratom leaf containing only naturally occurring trace levels.
