Kava and Eating (Getting Hangry!)

With an empty stomach being so crucial to kava working, I'm wondering how folks deal with not eating, or how you deal with eating, with kava. If I start drinking kava around 7pm, I'll likely not have eaten since 4 or earlier, and then don't want to eat for a few more hours so I can drink more kava--however, that means not eating until like 9 or later, and by that time, my bloodsugar gets so low that it's a struggle and I get a bit hangry. Any suggestions?

I eat midway through and if I feel like drinking more I will. On the weekends I have mini sessions throughout. So I woke up today, had a light breakfast and eventually (now) some kava, I will eat lunch and drink more kava later, I plan my kava around my regular meals and occasionally I may skip one. I never wait 3-4 hours before drinking shells, I've had lunch before and continued drinking kava an hour later, it depends on my mood.

One thing seems to always be the same and that is over the years I've come to only really enjoy kava at home, I don't bring it with mw unless I am going to be away from home for more than 2 days.
