Hush Kratom Review: The Extracts, the Labels and the Lab Reports

This Hush Kratom review works from documents alone, which suits a brand that sells nothing on its own site. Hushkratom.com lists nine kratom extract products, gives a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) for most and leaves the selling to shops. Its lab results are four reports behind a floating "Reports" button. They test for microbes and seven metals. None reports mitragynine or any other alkaloid, so Hush's own documents give a reader nothing to check its strength figures against.

If you are here because something went wrong after using a kratom product, read this part first. If someone is difficult to wake, is not breathing normally, is having a seizure, or is unresponsive, call 911.

Poison Control is 1-800-222-1222, around the clock, for a reaction that worries you. The crisis lifeline is 988, by call or text. The federal treatment locator is findtreatment.gov.

Kratom is not a treatment for opioid use disorder, and it is not a treatment for opioid or kratom withdrawal. The medicines with an evidence base behind them are buprenorphine, methadone and naltrexone. We are a seller, not a clinic: clinical questions belong with a clinician, not with us.

Who wrote this, and what we sell

Checked October 29, 2026. King K wrote this review. On kingkkratom.com we sell liquid kratom extracts and kratom energy shots, and our KING K PRIME extract tablets, which carry our name, are sold on grhkratom.com. Those compete with Hush's shots and capsules, so read this as a competitor's review. No store in our group (King K, GRH Kratom, GUD Tonics, Rebel X Brands and kemalwhyte.com) sells Hush Kratom or any Hush product. Hush did not commission or pay for this review and has not seen it. There are no affiliate links. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by Hush, and the Hush names are trademarks of their owner.

Where ours fall short, plainly. Hush Kratom is on the American Kratom Association's GMP Qualified list; King K is not. And our own certificates report alkaloid strength but carry no microbiology, metal, solvent or pesticide panels, the mirror image of what Hush publishes.

On October 14, 2026, DEA published a notice of intent (91 FR 65370) proposing temporary Schedule I for the concentrated minor alkaloid and mitragynine pseudoindoxyl (MGPI) above 1 mg/g or 1 mg/mL, or with a mitragynine ratio below 100, with an order "on or after November 13, 2026", and said it is withdrawing its July notice. Neither that order nor the withdrawal document had been published by October 29, 2026. MGPI, MGM-15 and MGM-16 have been temporarily in Schedule I since August 26, 2026. The leaf and mitragynine are not federally controlled.

How we reviewed it

Documents only, read on October 29, 2026. We did not buy, taste, dose or lab-test any Hush product. We read Hush's site, lab reports and package photos, five retailers' listings, the USPTO record, court records, FDA pages, the AKA's GMP pages and two state statutes; we found no label back panel. No score or grade, by the same method as our K Shot kratom review.

Hush kratom review: the quick verdict

What the documents show. Nine extract products, none sold on Hush's site, with MSRPs from $7.99 to $60 where listed. Mitragynine stated on five, in Hush's words. Four lab reports from Cambium Analytica, each on one unit of one lot received on March 28, 2025: microbiology and seven heavy metals, with no action limits and no pass or fail.

What is missing. Any alkaloid result. Any report for six of the nine. A legal suffix after Hush Kratom or HKCO Distribution. Directions that agree with the listings.

Who would want more. Anyone who wants a measured strength for the lot in hand, or a way to test the banner's claim about synthetic alkaloids; buyers of the gummies, softgels, capsules or powder; and anyone in a state whose age limit is above the 18 in Hush's Terms.

Nine products, and none sold on Hush's site

The site has no cart, checkout, shipping page or store locator, and retailers set the shelf price. MSRPs are as listed on hushkratom.com on October 29, 2026, and the mitragynine column gives Hush's figures, not a laboratory's.

Product and pack, as listed Mitragynine, as Hush states it MSRP Per 100 mg (ours) Hush report
Ultra Shots, 10 mL Not in words (graphic: 110 mg) $20 per shot $18.18, on the graphic One lot.
Coffee Shots, 10 mL Not in words (graphic: 110 mg) $20 per shot $18.18, on the graphic One lot.
Energy Shot, 2 oz 65 mg (banner); 60 to 65 mg (box) $7.99 $12.29 to $13.32 One lot.
Gummies, bag of 10 10 to 11 mg per gummy $25 per bag $22.73 to $25.00 None.
Softgels, jar of 15 15 mg per softgel Not listed Not computable None.
Gold Caps, packs of 2, 3 or 5 None; a leaf-gram claim instead Not listed Not computable None.
Platinum Caps, 2 per pack None; a leaf-gram claim instead $20 per pack Not computable None.
Silver Caps, jar of 20 15 mg per capsule $20 $6.67 None.
Ultra Enhanced Powder, 50 g jar 30 to 35 mg per gram $60 $3.43 to $4.00 None.

The arithmetic, once, and it is ours: MSRP divided by the milligrams Hush states per pack, times 100. A $20 jar of 20 Silver Caps at 15 mg holds 300 mg, so $20 / 300 x 100 = $6.67 per 100 mg of mitragynine. These are stated figures and MSRPs, not measurements or shelf prices. By the same sum on our own labels, King K Rush comes to $10.00, Gold to $6.67 and Platinum to $5.60, so Hush's powder costs less per 100 mg than all three.

The two 10 mL shots give no mitragynine figure in words. A comparison graphic on the homepage keys one bottle icon to "110MG MITRAGYNINE" and places one icon under each shot: an implication from a graphic, not a label statement, and no Hush report measures it. Kratom Divine, a retailer, lists 107 to 113 mg; that figure is the retailer's.

Shelf prices move. On October 29, 2026, the Ultra shot was $11.65 at Apotheca, $17.04 at NuWave Botanicals and $14.99 on sale at Kratom Divine.

A note on names: Hush's Gold, Platinum and Silver are capsules, while King K's Silver, Gold and Platinum are liquid extracts.

Where Hush's own documents disagree

We report each document and reconcile nothing; none of it is an amount to take.

Product One Hush document says Another says
Gold Caps Listing: "Each cap is equivalent to 3-4 grams of plain leaf" Card photo: "Equivalent to 6-7 grams (Plain Leaf) Per Cap"
Energy Shot Homepage banner: "65mg mitragynine in each 2oz shot." Box photo: "60-65mg Mitragynine Per Bottle"
Softgels Product page: a manufacturer's serving recommendation Terms: a lower daily ceiling for capsules across the range

Leaf-gram lines are claims, not measurements, and the retailer pages we read disagree about the Ultra shot's leaf equivalence too. We use none of them to compare strength. On the softgels we repeat neither number: the page and the Terms cannot both be followed, and both are Hush's.

The lab reports: four files, two panels, no alkaloids

No product page links a report. The only route is a floating button, "Microbiology Reports" on a desktop screen and "Reports" on a phone, whose menu lists four: Hush Ultra, Hush Coffee, Hush Energy and Hush Nano, a shot with no product page. The other six products have no report on the site, no lot lookup and no offer of one on request.

These are the "COA Reports" the site's entry screen asks visitors to confirm they have read, and what stands behind its search description: "Lab-tested, safe, and effective kratom extracts with full microbiology reports available."

Report, as named Lot Sample type Units tested
HUSH ULTRA - LIME Hu-Li-L-250326 Quality Assurance One.
HUSH ULTRA - COFFEE Hu-Co-L-250327 Quality Assurance One.
HUSH ENERGY SHOT Hu-En-L-250327 Compliance One.
HUSH NANO SHOT Hu-Na-L-250327 Compliance One.

All four are from Cambium Analytica of Traverse City, Michigan: samples received on March 28, 2025, reports published on April 2, 2025, about nineteen months before this review. Their text carries no accreditation statement; we could not view the page images, so a logo-only mark cannot be ruled out. Each covers microbiology (Salmonella, E. coli and coliforms, aerobic bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae, yeast and mold), with every result "ND" on all four, and seven heavy metals by ICP-MS.

Metal (ug/g) Ultra Lime Ultra Coffee Nano Energy
Arsenic ND ND ND ND
Cadmium ND <LOQ ND ND
Chromium 0.025 0.012 0.008 ND
Copper 0.125 0.034 0.145 0.030
Lead ND ND ND ND
Mercury 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001
Nickel 0.017 0.013 0.032 0.002

Every row reads "N/A" under both "ACTION LIMIT" and "STATUS": no specification, no pass or fail. "ND" means not detected at the method's limit, not zero, and the "0.000 mg/g" printed beside each detected metal is the same figure rounded.

Not covered: mitragynine or any other alkaloid; the concentrated minor alkaloid, MGPI, MGM-15 and MGM-16; residual solvents; pesticides; mycotoxins. So no strength figure in the catalog can be checked against a Hush certificate.

Open lab incubator with stacks of petri dishes under blue light

The panels Hush does publish match the two contamination problems FDA's kratom page names: FDA "has warned the public when certain kratom products were contaminated with Salmonella and/or concerning levels of heavy metals." Hush's reports test for both. Ours test for neither: King K's certificates report alkaloids and carry no contaminant panel. Neither set is complete. For what a kratom certificate usually lists and leaves out, see what is in kratom.

Our own lab results page has forwarded to our homepage since at least October 6, 2026. Whoever you buy from, ask for the certificate for the lot in your hand; for King K, ask us through our contact page.

The detail, so you can check us too. Our Platinum page states "500mg MIT"; its linked certificate, for lot 09012026, reports 467 mg of mitragynine per unit, 93.4 percent of the label by our arithmetic, and MGPI as "<LOQ (2.18) ug/g": found, but below the level the laboratory can quantify. Our Rush shots state "100 mg of mitragynine"; the linked lot 082026 reports read 114 to 118 mg. Our homepage says what is in the bottle "matches the label exactly". On these lots it does not.

The banner about synthetic alkaloids, and DEA's proposed line

A banner across every Hush page says the products are made from natural kratom leaf and contain no synthetic form of the concentrated minor alkaloid, or any other synthetic alkaloid. That is the brand's claim. No Hush document we read measures any alkaloid, so Hush's own papers can neither confirm nor disprove it, and no Hush page states an amount of the minor alkaloid.

We found no Hush product, listing, label photo or report that names or markets the minor alkaloid, MGPI, MGM-15 or MGM-16 as a product or an ingredient.

That gap matters under DEA's proposed threshold of October 14, 2026, set out in the box at the top. DEA adds that "neither HHS nor DEA has made a finding that these substances are safe to use at below-threshold levels." The line is drawn by measured content, not by product type, so calling a product an extract settles nothing under it, for Hush or for King K. Hush's documents place no Hush lot on either side of it.

Who is behind Hush Kratom

It depends on the document. Hush's Terms and Conditions call the brand's side of the agreement Hush Kratom, with no legal suffix, and send returns, opt-outs and notices to HKCO Distribution, 2591 Dallas Parkway, Suite 300-117, Frisco, Texas.

The USPTO record for the HUSH mark (serial 90254858), registered on July 20, 2021, for "Nutritional supplements containing kratom", names Hush Worldwide LLC as registrant and NP Investments, LLC, a Wyoming company with a Dallas address, as current owner, with an automatic ownership update recorded on August 8, 2024. The site names neither company; the link is the same word mark, registered for kratom goods. And a trademark class is not a legal status: FDA says kratom is not lawfully marketed as a dietary supplement.

A retailer, Kratom Divine, says the Ultra shot is "manufactured by Hush Worldwide LLC, Boise, Idaho." No Hush document we read names a manufacturer; most packs carry a GMP seal, and the Gold Caps card says "MADE IN THE USA".

The AKA GMP list: Hush is on it, King K is not

Hush Kratom is on the American Kratom Association's list of GMP Qualified vendors, with no audit date, certificate number or expiry shown, as for every entry. King K is not on the list, and nor are Empowered Creations, LLC, the company behind King K, Rebel X Brands or GRH Kratom.

The AKA says its program "represents facility and process certification versus product certification", that the "AKA does not endorse the quality of the product", and that qualified vendors "must complete an annual independent 3rd party audit".

The GMP seal on Hush's packs does not name the AKA, and no Hush document says whose program it means. The same list includes Happy Hippo Herbals, whose extract documents we read in our Happy Hippo kratom review.

Hush's Terms: age, refunds and arbitration

The Terms, version 3.1.1 and undated, are the site's only policy page. They read "18+ ONLY (21+ in TENNESSEE)", and Tennessee is the only state they set apart.

Two state statutes we read set 21 for any kratom product. Section 500.92 of the 2026 Florida Statutes: "It is unlawful to sell, deliver, barter, furnish, or give, directly or indirectly, any kratom product to a person who is under 21 years of age." Kentucky's KRS 217.2202, in the version effective until July 1, 2027, says a kratom processor or retailer shall not "Distribute, dispense, sell, or make available for sale any kratom extract or kratom product to an individual who is under twenty-one (21) years of age". Hush sells through retailers, and we draw no legal conclusion about Hush or any shop.

Refunds: a buyer may return "one unit of the unused Product within thirty (30) days" for a full refund, one per address in any twelve months, with up to ninety days for the money to arrive. The Terms also say you accept them by buying and not promptly returning, by using the product, or by "opening the Product or breaking the seal on its external packaging".

Then: "THESE TERMS REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS." Unless a buyer opts out, by certified mail within thirty days and for one year only, disputes go to AAA consumer arbitration or small claims, including claims that someone "SUFFERED INJURY OR DEATH BECAUSE OF OUR PRODUCT". To the extent the law permits, liability is capped at three times the amount paid, and claims must be brought within a year. What a court makes of any of that is for counsel.

The class action naming Hush Worldwide

Hush Worldwide LLC, the HUSH mark's original registrant, is a named defendant in No. 2:25-cv-01074 in the Eastern District of California, a putative class action filed on April 10, 2025. Putative means proposed, and no class certification appears on the docket. The court's order of September 26, 2025 captions the defendants as Hush Worldwide LLC, a Wyoming company, Drip Drop Distro LLC, Bedrock MFG LLC and fifty unnamed defendants.

The complaint is not on CourtListener's archive. The plaintiff's motion to proceed under a pseudonym describes it: "The nature of the complaint is that Defendants sold a highly addictive and unregulated drug, called kratom, to the unsuspecting public." Those are the plaintiff's lawyers' words: allegations, none of them proved.

Date On CourtListener's copy of the docket
April 10, 2025 Complaint filed.
June 4 and August 12, 2025 Motions to dismiss.
September 2, 2025 Amended complaint.
September 4, 2025 Minute order: "Motions Submitted/Under Advisement".
September 29, 2025 Order granting the pseudonym motion, the last entry visible.

As CourtListener's copy stood on October 29, 2026: pending, with motions to dismiss briefed as of September 2025 and nothing later. No ruling on the merits, settlement, dismissal or judgment appears, and CourtListener warns its copy may not be up to date.

A second case names Hush Worldwide LLC: a wrongful-death suit in Cowlitz County Superior Court, Washington, No. 23-2-01183-08. Its amended complaint, dated January 12, 2024, names thirteen defendants, the American Kratom Association among them, and pleads failure to warn, product defect and breach of warranty under Revised Code of Washington chapter 7.72 against Hush Worldwide among others. We read a copy the plaintiff's counsel filed as testimony with the North Dakota Legislative Assembly, not the court's docket; the latest dated record we saw is a deposition on November 22, 2024, at which a law firm appeared for Hush Worldwide. We could not confirm the case's status. All of it is allegation: no finding appears in what we read, and we draw no conclusion about what caused the death.

What FDA and the states have published about Hush

Searching fda.gov and the web for Hush, HKCO and Hush Worldwide, we found no warning letter or recall naming them, and FDA's Import Alert 54-15 on kratom, in its version published on August 17, 2026, has no match for Hush, HKCO or NP Investments. We did not query FDA's warning-letter or recall databases directly: not found, not none. We found no state attorney general, health or agriculture department action naming Hush either.

FDA's general position covers every kratom brand, ours included. It "has warned consumers not to use kratom because of the risk of serious adverse events, including liver toxicity, seizures, and substance use disorder (SUD)."

What Hush claims, and what it warns

The softgel page claims contaminants are greatly reduced or eliminated and the alkaloid content standardized, though no report covers the softgels. The softgel, gummy and Energy copy also makes effect claims, which we do not repeat and did not test.

The Energy banner claims "3x more mitragynine as the leading brand." The Ultra and Coffee pages call them "One of the only non-alcohol based shots." Hush's site prints no ingredient list, and NuWave Botanicals' FAQ says of alcohol that "trace amounts may be used for preservation". Our Silver and Rush list alcohol, so we score nothing here.

Our own product pages make the same kinds of claim: "No synthetics, ever." and "up to 3x what leading competitor shots deliver", with no competitor named. Like Hush's banner and its "3x" line, they are marketing claims, and this review does not test ours either.

To its credit, Hush's Terms carry warnings in the brand's own words: "Using Mitragyna Speciosa can be dangerous." They also warn about extract potency, list serious side effects some publications have suggested, warn against use in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, describe the products as not intended for daily use, and say: "This product has not been deemed fit for US consumption by FDA."

Hush kratom questions

Who makes Hush Kratom?

Hush's site names only Hush Kratom and HKCO Distribution of Frisco, Texas. The USPTO record lists Hush Worldwide LLC as the HUSH mark's registrant and NP Investments, LLC of Dallas as its current owner. No Hush document we read names a manufacturer.

Does Hush Kratom publish lab results?

Four reports from Cambium Analytica, dated April 2025, behind a Reports button on hushkratom.com. They cover microbiology and seven heavy metals, with no alkaloid results, and six of the nine listed products have none.

How much mitragynine is in a Hush Ultra shot?

Hush's Ultra page gives no figure in words. A homepage graphic implies about 110 mg per 10 mL shot, and no Hush report measures it.

Has Hush Kratom been sued?

Hush Worldwide LLC, the HUSH mark's original registrant, is a defendant in a putative federal class action filed in California on April 10, 2025. Its claims are allegations. The last entry on CourtListener's copy of the docket is dated September 29, 2025, and no ruling on the merits appears.

Disclaimer: this page summarizes public documents as read on October 29, 2026, and links to them so you can check.
