Later they discover that these large bodies of water are natural brews of kava. Due to the heavy rain and ever expanding sizes they...

    How are orange kava candies?

    I couldn’t find any other thread to post this under. How are they and how do they compare to traditional? Are they actually strong or do you have to eat a lot to feel rooted?

    Tips on managing root induced anxiety

    I love kava but honestly there’s one thing I loath about it. I feel anxious 30-45 minutes after drinking some and it has ruined the experience before. I get anxious for no reason or sometimes irritable. Does anyone know any tips to minimize this?

    Good kava foods

    I’ve noticed that a crappy diet makes Java’s side effects atrocious. However healthy foods bring out the benefits over the side effects. any day that I’ve had more then one piece of cake, cookie, candu especially, or an excess of sugar and fat makes the kava unpleasantly strong. However nicer...

    What do you make your kava in?

    Glass bowl? Plastic or wood? What’s best? Or alubal? what’s the cup made of? I’ve seen coconut half’s, or wood bowls. I use plastic cups.

    Kava has been making me very sick

    When I drink kava it isn’t the same anymore. I can’t feel any ‘mild’ effects. Instead it punches me in the face and I’m seeing double or cross eyed. I get dizzy. I get a full feeling in my stomach and I can’t keep it down. Regardless of how much food is in my stomach I get extremely rooted off...

    My worst kava session

    This story’s gross. Read on if you dare. One night a few weeks back I was drinking kava and doing great. This was after a short kava break. I stopped for awhile because I started not feeling great. Was getting queasy and a dry sticky feeling in my mouth and all the way down to my stomach. It’s...

    Does kava increase metabolism

    I bet this question had never been asked. I NEVER gain weight. And I eat a lot. If I drink kava with food in my stomach regardless if it’s a lot or a little I get rooted pretty easily. Then it feels like I haven’t eaten in hours. It seems to numb full feeling from food. I go to bed krunk every...

    Intense emotions after kava

    Occasionally after drinking kava I feel a surge of strong emotions, often times it’s some ratio of sadness and joy. Sometimes it can even make me irritable or dysphoric. Kava unlocks intense emotions. Not to be used before intense events or experiences. Sometimes I cry a lot. It helps me gain a...

    Kava has been REALLY strong lately

    It could be due to the fact that I’ve skipped my weekly 1-day break for the last month. Now 25 days consecutive heavy drinking, I can’t drink it t he way I used to. The rt has become enormous. And I kind of hate it. I enjoy drinking a lot as the dopamine is better from more of a challenge. Now...

    Kava an cbd don't mix well

    So I've noticed that with my cannabis consumption kava often potentiates the affect of cannabis unless its a high cbd strain. Cbd seems to completely block and prohibit the affects of kava. It doesn't matter how much I've had that same day. Once I drank two very potent aluballs and was nearly...

    Very itchy skin

    I've had many different types of derma. Dry flaky skin, redness and mild itching and even hive rash lesions. Pretty manageable. I've seen it all except lately my skin has been extremely itchy but is not red and it doesn't appear to be dry. So my question has anyone gotten really itchy skin from...

    Does kava cause bloating?

    I've been trying to lose weight for awhile to get in better shape for running and other sports. I eat large meals early in the day and eat maybe 5-10% of my 'energy' at night with my kava after my run, a very small meal. Eggs and a piece of bread, or eggs and a muffin, etc. I'm waking up as...

    Kava boosts stamina

    I've been drinking kava for a long time but I've been running for longer. I've noticed that a lot of my PR run times have come during periods of kava use. I've made breakthroughs I'm sure I wouldn't have made without it. I don't ever drink it right before going on a run but the day after there's...

    This new kava killed my skin

    I've been drinking fijian kava for a few years. I get the exact same strain, same bag, vendor everything. Last week it was sold out so I tried a different fijian. Its just like my personal favorite, but much stronger and the powder isn't as course. Its very strong. I can drink a third to half of...

    kava makes me emotional

    After a heavy session once the buzz starts wearing sometimes I feel emotional. I've had some of my most intense cries in the afterglow. It can be for seemingly no reason. I've always noticed this since I tried kava four years ago. My first or second time I had a heavy session, four years back...

    Is rash connected to liver/kidney problems?

    I'm sorry if this question has already been asked but I've looked and I can't find anything relevant to my question. I've been battling a kava induced rash for about 4-5 months, since its been cold. Never had this problem in the summer or before. I found that eating coconut oil and applying...
