I think I'll try the sunflower next. I'm not crazy about adding more soy to my diet, even though I haven't had any issues with the stomach. I just wasn't able to find any info about the effectiveness of the sunflower lecithin. It may take me a while to get through this monster tub though!

Not if you are like me, haha
I drink alot of Awa, and add it to my juices.
Its very effective, I just started using it not to long ago, PKs extracts have it in it also.

you just went too quick with your double dose right off the bat...and then putting a 3rd on top of it (probably) too soon.
both you and your body aren't used to it yet...you don't know what kind of leeway you have yet and what feelings to look out for to know you should wait longer before attempting more. I wouldn't reduce your tablespoons next time...just don't double dose. you can play around with dosing after you've become accustomed to it all.
get some ginger powder, don't let the nausea deter you from trying again. good luck.

I think Im going to make detailed instructions, cause lately they are hittin me hard. Some serious Waka grade.
@endwatcher Can't wait for your detailed instructions (I'm very curious).

It would be great if you could add it the Wiki too (under the techniques section)

I also bought the same Sunflower Lecithin as you, but not really sure the best way to use it.

Regards

Well, I made some last night.
But didnt have time to post it, I will have time today after work though.

Just drank some a minute ago to alleviate some cold symptoms, feeling much better.

Me and the wife go out for lunch practically every day. I used to drink wine with lunch, but lately I've been mixing some instant Kava with a glass of ice tea, at the restaurant, before eating. I get a fairly good buzz from doing this before I eat (and no restaurant has prevented me from doing this even though lot's of places are picky about what you bring into their place, even bottled water. if they ask, I tell them I'm taking a protein supplement for my diet :)). But I noticed that during (or shortly after) eating lunch the effects from the instant get a lot stronger for awhile.

So I'm thinking that maybe the fat in the food (I usually eat a burger or steak, or some other protein) might be acting as an emulsifier in the stomach and enabling the kavalactones to be more digestible to produce a stronger effect.

It's just a theory though..... I do know that when I consume some instant Kava and don't eat anything afterwards, I don't get this effect.
