The Feel Free Lawsuit, Kratom Controversies, Kava Vs. Weed, New Botanic Tonic Formulations & More

This is the third appearance on my podcast for today's intriguing but controversial guest: JW Ross.
JW is the founder of the company Botanic Tonics, which makes an energy drink shot/alcohol alternative called "Feel Free", which has come under criticism lately, including a lawsuit, based on confusion (and lack of clarity) regarding the presence of Kratom in the product. 
In this episode, Jerry "JW" Ross is back to take a dive further into the latest Feel Free kratom-free formula, the continued controversy around kratom and kava safety/addiction profiles, the lawsuit, and much more.
JW himself is a lifelong innovator and inventor of this plant-based tonic. He started his career as a Texas oilman who experienced immense corporate success that was tainted with alcohol addiction. After hitting rock bottom and going to rehab, JW purged alcohol from his life and completely pivoted his career.
As part of his addiction recovery process, JW went on life-changing trips in the South Pacific and Southeast Asia, where he discovered botanical plant medicines whose ingredients have been used socially and in wellness for centuries. After discovering these plants, JW dedicated his life to finding a herbal solution that would replace alcohol and still give him a euphoric lift with a positive impact. He home-tested many concoctions, finally creating the perfect recipe that turned into the new Feel Free Tonic recipe.
