I enjoy kava but over the years I have gotten severe nausea on some occasions. Usually enough to ruin my night but I am here to tell you I have found the solution EXPLAINED by SCIENCE. Too many times Ive scoured the forums looking for remedies, NONE of which has EVER worked. They've been bogus.
Here is why you get nausea. #1 reason is because Kava is packed with MAGNESIUM which is extremely ALKALINE. Sometimes your stomach is like "woah how am I going to digest this?" "I have to make way too much acid to handle this, its got to go". This is why you get nauseous. The SOLUTION and I mean the only solution I have discovered that works is very simple. Spanish olives or pickles, anything with vinegar. Why? Because its very ACIDIC and totally balances the PH in your stomach. SO SIMPLE. It works incredibly! It makes the stomach more acidic and your body will not send the nausea signal to your brain. I truly hope this helps people because nobody here has ever gotten it correct. Ginger, siracha, soda water( granted water can be acidic but not enough) , yogurt, bunch of nonsense. Vinegar fermented food does the damn trick. Please respond and verify this if it has worked for you. Thank you. Sidenote- just eat the olives as you go as too much vinegar can also make you sick.
