prop warning on kratom?

my package has a warning on it that it contains lead nickel and arsenic? never saw this before so not sure but that wouldnt be safe to use would it i mean or does it just have to be on there regardless?

after some research  :  kratom is NOT to be ingested  as per the FDA  -  each vendor will label  according to their own policies . The AKA GMP Label Program  states :  For own labeling purposes, we follow the labeling protocol that is outlined within the American Kratom Association’s GMP Standards Program. The AKA is working tirelessly to help protect kratom consumers in America, and we believe that this is a program fully worth supporting.

With the standards laid out through AKA’s research, we (and other kratom vendors) can be sure to protect our consumers to the best of our abilities.

  • • The labels, labeling, or advertising of any kratom product should not bear any disease claims (i.e., claims regarding the treatment, cure, prevention, or mitigation of disease) or unauthorized health claims.
  • • The labels, labeling, or advertising of any kratom product should not bear any structure/function claims.
  • • The labels, labeling, or advertising of any kratom product should not reference any research or clinical data.
  • • Each finished product label must include a batch or lot number.
  • • Each finished product should be labeled to disclose the mitragynine and 7-OH alkaloid content of the product.
  • • Each finished product label must advise consumers to consult with a physician for dosing information relative to alkaloid values.
  • • No kratom products may be sold to individuals under the age of 18.
  • • The label should bear a statement that pregnant women should not use kratom products during pregnancy.
  • • All labels, labeling, or advertising should include the following statement: “This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition.”

I have seen vendors  tests  that will  include  metals.  You could / should contact the vendor  & ask

There are a lot of disclaimers required for liability and regulatory reasons. It gets most ridiculous when there's a conceit that kratom isn't being used for human consumption.

That's why I stay away from buying kratom at head shops or gas stations...I only buy from Amazing Botanicals and Tea Time Botanicals because I've seen the lab report/breakdowns so I know there's nothing in it that isn't supposed to be in it.

I’ve never seen that but it’s interesting to know and I’m gonna start paying attention if there are warning labels

The only thing ive seen the warnings say not for human consumption
