I'd recommend chewing the dried roots first before the concentrates or power. It takes a while for the tolerance to lower and chewing seems to be the most potent. I used Maui Medicinal before I could no longer find it on eBay, then I moved to some "cut and sifted" kava I found on Amazon.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I been meaning to mention this for some time and didn't know others had talked about this as well.

I've also noticed this, but it feels really heavy. I don't really have a favourite strain, I just go with what I can afford. Though I'd stick with Borongoru if I had the money. I usually use 5g in the aluball, but sometimes put 10g in a straining bag and massage the traditional way. I sit with...

Just a quick reply. Haven't much energy to go into much detail (been trying to CAD), but Borongoru was something I found particuarly helpful when I found most kava too stimulating. I also can't recommend l theanine enough. It works really well in a hot drink and has almost no stimulant effect...

From kalm with kava? The website describes it as balanced, though it's kavain dominant. I'd recomend something labeled as heavy with Dihydrokavain dominant over kavain. http://www.kavalibrary.com/Chemotypes.html I know this is a bit awkard for someone looking to treat anxiety, but some basic...

Thanks. That's good to know. I find the non addictive properties of it most refreshing. Sure there does seem to be some dependancy with me, but if anything my use has reduced. I'll post another blood result after summer for anyone interested. I'm due regular blood tests anyway due to the...

I might buy that sometime. Might be a lot cheaper than the hydrstion tablets I buy. Thanks for the tip. Might add some fruit juice to add some flavour to it. Coconut water isn't all that great tasting depending on brand, powder might be much less pallitable. I do need to drink more water. I...

Thanks. It hasn't been easy, but kava, cbd, niacin and theanine has been a life saver. I'm not sure what AST is, but don't see it in the liver test area so I'm guessing it isn't there, unless you can think of another area it may be located in. I guess you're not in the UK like me and they...

It's been a couple months short of a year that I've been clean from alcohol, apart from an occasional beer. I had a blood test during my alcoholic period, just after I started defacating blood, in October 2017 and I've been relatively clean since about March 2018. My levels were within nomral...

I'll order the powder in a bit as it's an easy low cost solution. I'll also try some dates. I try to use a combination of food and juice/water to treat dehydration, but not feeling good right now so fudge is quite bare. I've got some prunes in the cupboard that need eating. Might go through...

Yeah water is great and I should drink more of that. It's just that I'm sure it's affecting my electrolytes due to the feeling I get. I've had it in the past from alcohol and water wasn't helpful.

Just found some electrolyte powder form Bulk Powders on Amazon. I didn't think it would be that easy. Only 4p per portion is a very good price, I just need to find a way to mask the taste. Thanks for the advice.

I tend to get quite dehydrated drinking kava. I'm using quite a bit currently to cope with the heat, but plan to cut back when it cools down. I drink coconut water as it was recommended somewhere. Though it's quite expensive and am wondering if there's a cheaper alternative. I know that kava has...

If recovering from alcoholism then I'd recommend flashing the acohol form your system so you can really appreciate the effects of kava. You may not be, but that was the situation I was in. Borongoru would probably be more relaxing, but I feel quite hyped up if I drink 20g in quick succession...

Thanks for all the replies. especailly the supportive commentv from Okie about dealing with alcoholism. It's been a rough ride though it seems slightly easier now I'm not continously poisoning myself like before. I actually did already know about the caffeine interaction from an experience...

I've started on the kava again after a long break. I've been using kava a bit since buying the powdered root, things like chew and some mild e liquid. Though when my chew ran out that when the summer heat really got to me. So I decided on 2poounds of Borongoru powder. I had about 40g (I usually...
