In Memory of Cade

Kratom Is Not a
Harmless Supplement.

Cade F.M. — Age 20

Cade believed in doing what was right. His story is one of thousands being silenced by a dangerous, unregulated substance sold freely on store shelves. We are here to change that.

Why This Matters

Sold as a Supplement.
Acts Like an Opioid.

Kratom is legally sold in gas stations and smoke shops across Florida with no prescription, no age restriction, and no safety warning. Families are losing loved ones and most don't even know what kratom is until it's too late.

Acts on Opioid Receptors

Kratom's active compound mitragynine converts in the body to 7-hydroxymitragynine — a substance 13x more potent than morphine that triggers the same opioid receptors linked to respiratory depression and death.

No Regulation, No Safety

There is no required testing, no standardized dosage, and no mandatory age restriction. Products vary wildly in potency — some tested products were compared to "legal morphine" by University of Florida scientists.

Targeting Young Adults

Kratom products including gummies and flavored shots are sold in stores routinely accessed by young adults and teenagers. Cade was just 20 years old — and he is not alone.
