Tolerance is not addiction. It means a reduced reaction to a substance, which may be accelerated if the dosage is increased.

Compare the price at your smoke shop to $70 for 1000 grams, at the top link. My local was $25 for 40 grams. That's a rate of $625 instead of $70... 9 times more expensive.

I immediately went online to buy quantity, and went through some crappy sources before finding the links above. Got some red (fermented), but meh. Some white can be good, but the green maeng-da works best imo.

i agree that changes in tolerance do not equal addiction.. but dont these two issues, tolerance and addiction, dont they go hand in hand in many cases..

when i took the kratom for 45 day, i felt no need to up my dosage to get the same effect and i felt absolutely no craving when i would stop taking it..

Maybe the tolerance thing is just a rumor. I'd just not want to rely on that for my daily mood, even if no ill physical effects.
