Ep 80: From Pills to Plants: Diana's Path to Wellness with Kratom
Manage episode 514188364 series 3561946
Diana-Ashley Krach shares her journey from being a chronically ill pain patient on multiple prescriptions to finding lasting relief and freedom through Kratom. Living with Crohn's disease, endometriosis, and anxiety, she recalls the chaos of being prescribed handfuls of pills, some to counteract the side effects of others, until a sudden crackdown left her without medication or guidance. In desperation, she discovered a local kava bar in Florida and tried Kratom tea. Within days, she experienced peaceful sleep for the first time in years and began a path toward natural wellness that eventually replaced nearly all of her prescriptions.
In this episode, Diana and Madalyn discuss the evolution of Kratom advocacy from the early 2000s to today, including the 2016 national ban threat, the rise of seven-hydroxymitragynine (7OH) controversy, and how misinformation and fear continue to shape public perception. Diana, a longtime writer and podcaster, also reflects on how Kratom reshaped her view of plant medicine, the importance of responsible use and transparency among vendors, and the need for honest education in the face of censorship and corporate control. She now uses her platform, Your Highness Media, to spotlight plant-based wellness and harm reduction advocacy, empowering others to become informed, responsible consumers.
