Nausea

[Belynda Wilson]

i have heard that there is a percentage of the population that cannot metabolize kava. I love its effects, (at first) but every time I take it (powder, tincture or extract) I get violently nauseated 2 or 3 hours later. Never right after taking it—it’s always a few hours later.
Has anyone experienced this, please?

It really depends on what and how you're taking it. The sediment is more likely to make you naseous, but usually immediately after drinking it. Tudei/Isa kava can definitely make you naseous. Try sticking to heady or balanced kavas.
