In this Sept. 27, 2017 photo, kratom capsules are displayed in Albany, N.Y. An upstate New York coroner’s classification of a young police sergeant’s death as a kratom overdose has sparked controversy among advocates of the herbal supplement who fear it could fuel efforts to ban it. Sgt. Matt Dana died in August 2017 at his home in Tupper Lake. A month later, the coroner said a toxicology study found only a high level of kratom in his blood. He said the 27-year-old officer died of hemorrhagic pulmonary edema, blood and fluid in the lungs. (AP Photo/Mary Esch)
