        @Surgeon_General possibly millions of Americans are kicking their addiction to life taking opioids with the help from #KratomSavesLives . Are you in favor of @SGottliebFDA taking away a herbal heath supplement that could possibly save millions of lives? #IAMKRATOM

        @Surgeon_General wouldn't you have liked to have seen your brother be able to kick his addiction and be a productive member of society? Millions of Americans are doing just that by talking the health supplement #IAMKRATOM . Don't allow @SGottliebFDA to take #KratomSavesLives away

        Well then it's time to start relying on the Almighty God and less on the "almighty" Doctor.

        If you really feel that way you wont make 5 million people suffer because big pharma is loosing billions. So lets make everyday people suffer. We have 83 year old pastor that swears by kratom. You guys are asking for war from the citizens. Work with us, leave powder alone.

        #Mercury poisoning from dental amalgam - "silver fillings" - is personal to me. I had 20 yrs of chronic disease & a year of escalating health problems as #Hg was not being #rightforme, given my #genetics. Mercury poisoning is a preventable chronic disease. Step up, end it now.
