Seems like no matter what precautions I take, I simultaneously have both positive effects as well as well as a "sick" type feeling, and it happens all the way from the start to the finish of my kava session. I have tried drinking more water, taking ginger, drinking slowly, but I just can't get rid of this "slightly sick" type feeling every time I drink it.
It does not feel like the typical nausea that kava can induce, because I've actually felt that, but this feels different. I'm not sure I would call it nausea, because I don't actually feel like I'm on the verge of throwing up. I really don't know how to describe it - kind of queasy, unpleasant dizziness, almost feel like I have something like a flu, and if not nauseous, then it feels on the verge of nausea.
The other reason it makes me feel uncomfortable, is because I'm torn whether to keep drinking more, since I do simultaneously feel slight positive effects.
I ask myself, if I have another one, will the positive effects increase, and the sick feeling 'not increase' ?
This experience seems to have been present since I first started drinking kava, but seems to become more pronounced, the longer I drink it (not referring to individual sessions, but overall in life experience of drinking)
And it's quality noble kava, from a reputable vendor, so I don't think that's an issue.
Does this sound like something that anyone else ever experienced ? And the obvious other question, is does anybody know why ?
