How to Read a Kratom COA and Lab Report
A COA can look like a wall of numbers. Start with the batch number, then take it one part at a time.
Does this report belong to your bag?
COA means certificate of analysis: results for a tested sample. Check the product name, batch number, laboratory, and test date against your package. If the identifiers don’t match, ask why. A report for a different batch doesn’t answer the same question.
Look past the potency figure
Check what was tested, not just the biggest number. A mitragynine result doesn’t tell you whether the lab checked for microorganisms or heavy metals. Look for the units, methods, and limits used. A “pass” needs a clear explanation of the standard it passed.
What does “not detected” mean?
Usually it means the test didn’t detect something above its detection limit. It doesn’t mean a lab proved absolute zero. Something that wasn’t tested also shouldn’t be treated as absent. If a result lacks a unit or an explanation, it’s reasonable to ask for one.
What can you ask us?
Send your product name and batch number to support@kratomstash.com. Ask for the complete matching report, which laboratory issued it, and an explanation of any result you don’t understand. A clear report helps you ask better questions; it doesn’t guarantee that using a product is safe.
