Got it! Thanks. I was wondering about saving the used root. So that is called makas? The used root? Will definitely five it a try. Sent from my SM-J727T1 using Tapatalk

Not an expert here on makas but from what I have researched you dont really want the makas in your kava because of the increase in nausea. Maybe some of the kava vets will chime in but that is what I've read. All the best. Sent from my SM-J727T1 using Tapatalk

Indeed. That much I found out searching this forum (noble) I think I will stick to the KWK just because it seems to give me the best results for my anxiety... thank you for the reply. Sent from my SM-J727T1 using Tapatalk

Thanks! And totally agree. Not very impressed with ROH but have had great results with KWK and I am by no means a expert just started my kava journey a month ago. The fiji blend just totally clears my racing mind while the Borongu really mellows me out. Haven't tried the pouni but have...

Hey all I had a question on kava consistency. I have been using KWK Borongu and the Fuji loa waka. I recently purchased roots of happiness vanuatu and it looked completely different than the KWK. The ROH was almost a powdery consistency while the KWK was more granular. Any difference in...

Thought I would post an update after talking to my PCP about kava and any interactions with celexa and other SSRI'S. She said there is a potential reaction where kava could cause higher levels of celexa in my body but was not concerned as I am on a low dose but added to be careful and pay...

Definitely not alone on this path my friend. I just discovered this forum maybe a week ago and already feel better and that there are some really helpful people here. Like Kampcrunk said you have to find the dose and balance that works for you. I started on 3 tablespoons per 12 oz of water...

Great. If you dont mind can you post what your doc. Says about kava and the meds I'd be curious to know. Also kapmcrunk a member here posted some good articles about the use of kava and SSRI'S and how it may increase or decrease not sure, the levels of the medication through kavas attaching...

In the same boat my friend and also new to kava. Do a search on this forum as well as others with much more experience than me will hopefully chime in. I also suffer from anxiety depression and panic disorder that has recently resurfaced after a 13 year absence. I also have addiction issues...

Good articles and thanks for posting! I did a search on this forum about the subject and it seems several members have drank kava while on SSRI's at varying doses with little side effects. According to some it may increase the potency of the SSRI but usually negligible. If one feels jittery...

Got it! Thanks so much. I was not planning on daily kava consumption but just on those occasional times at night when I need to unwind. This forum is great. Thanks again Sent from my SM-J727T1 using Tapatalk

And also yes I am on a maintenance dose of the klonopin and in the midst of a 4 week taper. (.5mg twice a day then week four .5 once a day.) I don't really feel anything from them as far a drowsiness I just feel like I am maintaining if that makes sense. I went through a vicious alcohol and...

Kapmcrunk thanks so much for your reply! The generic name of the SSRI is citalopram. Sent from my SM-J727T1 using Tapatalk

Hey all. I've been reading through the forum and you all seem like genuinely great people. So new to kava and had a few questions about interactions and or use while on SSRI'S and also tapering off klonopin for the next 4 weeks. (Was only on it 8 weeks at .5mg twice a day) So my doc...
