Wow, Thank you! I take propranolol and I have always wondered. It seems like it is partially metabolized by 1a2 from what I can read about it.

I Know this topic has been raised a billion times but I'm going to revive it for more current input- Aside from the obvious, Acetaminophen (paracetamol), what other prescription meds are likely going to be problematic mixing with Kava?

some strains dont sit well with me..KWK Borongoru is is one-it gives me anxiety and makes it hard to fall asleep, same with Kava Supreme. However, Kava Lapita and Melo Melo (KWK) don't do this and have very little side effects if any. Weird..but hey at least I found my go-to's.

I like the kava lapita, it is similar but more mellow IMO..for some reason the kava supreme gives me a weird heady feeling that keeps me up at night even though its supposed to help with sleep.

I’m the same way, kava supreme and KWK Borongoru both wake me up but heady and balanced kind of do the opposite.

I get the same stimulating effects from supreme as well as Borongoru both of which are supposed to heavy and sedating. Instead, they keep me up at night and it takes about 5-6 hours to wear off completely. That being said, other kavas do not do this to me- Kava Lapita and KWK MeloMelo, and...

Hmm had the same issue with borongoru but haven’t tried nene, maybe I’ll give that a shot. I can still enjoy it in the day time but really want to find something to have a t night that will at least be neutral when it comes to sleep.

Just curious which ones have you found to be your nighttime kavas?

See I think you gave it a more consistent run and allowed the kavactones to really build up in your system from what you describe. My usage is spotty and I'm probably not allowing it to reach its full potential- might be one factor.

Thanks, what you describe is somewhat similar to me and perhaps you are right in the end, it is just body chemistry. I do think I need to explore it more with other varieties and play around with the frequency and quantity of use before coming to a solid conclusion. When I first started...

thanks for the reply! No I don’t drink heady kavas much I’ve been trying to stick with heavy or balanced. I haven’t given kava a real consistent go due to the fact it kind of causes sleep issues at the moment. How long did it take you drinking it daily to get to the reliability point? Do you...

Hello, While great for anxiety, I've always personally struggled trying to sleep within hours of drinking Kava while for some it seems to be a blessing. Call me stubborn, but I refuse to chalk it up to body chemistry and give up so I am trying an analytical approach. The 4 most commonly used...

Hey, I take 20mg of propranolol 3x /day for anxiety issues and have been drinking kava for over a year now. I have not noticed any ill-effects. Also, kava almost always lowers my BP so its interesting it does the opposite for you. I do know when I first started drinking it I would get anxiety...

Interesting, I had not thought of that. I can't remember if I drank coffee on those days or not, I probably did but I'll be more mindful of that going forward.

Thanks for the tip with cod oil. I have to take a high dose at least 50 mg usually more to get any kind of an effect from cbd. How much are you taking?

So, this is real! I love kava and I'm certainly not going to give it up due tot his but I can't help but notice everytime I drink it too late in day I'm up all night. Yes, even with the heavy strains. I can't quite put my finger on what it is that keeps me up about it but it is similar to the...

I have not had any issues when I space them out within 24 hours. I have not tried them any closer than that.

Thank you! I saw most of these already, they are related to preparation methods though there are some with actual recipes I was trying to cast a wider net. Let me know if I overlooked.

Over the weekend I tried some kava cola from Fiji I believe it was and it was really good. I’m not much for drinking anything cola or with added sugar but glad I tried it so wanted to see if anyone had any personal recommendations on kava drink recipes?

Welcome! I've always liked the taste but I'm weird.
