Kava Synchronized
Others have touched on this topic, but I wanted to share my recent (and ongoing) experience of drinking kava while afflicted with the covid virus. On our way home, after an extended visit with our Ozark family and friends, I noticed slight flu-like symptoms. By the time I was back in Santa Fe, NM, I decided to take a COVID-19 test...which proved to be positive for both my wife and me. Our first case!
We were current with the latest vax from last fall and that's undoubtedly helped modify our symptoms. But kava has helped dramatically in a couple of areas. I tend to not get proper rest when feeling under the weather. Drinking kava at mid morning helped me get additional morning rest that I really needed. Ditto afternoon. And it was a great excuse to drink 'awa earlier and more often! The other real help was the way kava opened up our stuffy covid-congested sinuses. Wow. Immediate relief that over-the-counter sinus meds just couldn't match. We are drinking only traditional prep kava with the exception of some Kava Candy that we bought to help with sore throats that we had for about two days. I had tried them a few years ago to use while flying and they had been useful. But they also work as great throat lozenges.
So we didn't experience any downside to drinking a little more kava than usual. And it makes for enjoyable covid isolation. One more reason to celebrate this plant!
