A new paper just published looking at 551 deaths in Florida where 7-OH was detected post-mortem. In 93.5% of these cases, at least one other chemical was found in the system. The County of Los Angeles Medical Examiner recently identified ten fatal overdoses associated with 7-OH ingestion in LA County residents between the ages of 18 to 40 years old. https://ktla.com/news/local-news/deadly-7-oh-kratom-overdoses-confirmed-in-los-angeles-county/ The picture is of two out of about fifty different products containing concentrated 7-OH from our local gas station.
