In a documentary, comedian Davey Jackson investigates the rapidly growing kratom industry, highlighting how concentrated extracts and synthetic derivatives have transformed a once-obscure plant into a multibillion-dollar business. He discusses three categories: natural powder leaf, extracts, and synthetic products like 7-OH, which the DEA is banning.
