Meal after a sesh/glassy eyes

Well I've decided to fit two topics In one post. I've noticed that if you eat a meal maybe 30min after you finish your sesh it gives the krunk a considerable boost. And for someone like me who it's "go krunk or go home" every night, this has become a ritual for me. It's almost like the krunk isn't reaching it's full potential but when you eat something, wham!!! Anyone else notice this? And second: I've noticed lately that my eyes get glazed over when I drink kava. The kind of glazed over that just screams "probable cause" when you get pulled over. Anyone else get this?

Absolutely, I've noticed the same thing. If my krunk is fading, and I throw some food down there, it suddenly peaks. That's when the effect is strongest for me... I think more-so on high-kavain kavas, but I'm not sure on that. Sometimes it doesn't work.



I haven't noticed the glassy eye thing, but I haven't been looking. I'll peek in the mirror next time.

I also have noticed this with heavy kavain kavas. Some greasy food afterwards causes kava 2.0.
The glassy eyes I don't think I've noticed too much off. I will be more prone to staring off into a corner for an extended period of time, but after I drink a punch-out kava like stone my eyes usually aren't open for too long following it.

Yup, I made the mistake of drinking a strong batch a few months back at around 11:00am. I ate a few slices of pizza and was the most krunked I'd ever been. Like uncomfortably messed up. Seems to work better with junk food than fruit and veggies.

The only two times I've been smashed out of my mind was from having kava after dinner. I think both times it was over an hour after. But I realise for some reason this is traditionally a no-no. You eat before dinner, and dinner will produce a greater affect.

I'm thinking this has something to do w/ a person's glucose level. Anyone here diabetic? I get the glassy eyes the morning after for at least 3-4 hours after I wake up. I wonder if there's any legit med research on this phenomenon?

I haven't had any issues with glassy eyes, but dinner after kava often gives it a reboot. If I'm planning a kava sesh, I typically skip lunch, have my kava in the evening, and then when it starts to wear off, I have dinner and get a nice little extra kick. It's usually not super strong, but it's nice.

Once upon a time, I had a gigantic session of 5 cups of water to 2 and a half cups of kava. Amidst my daze while watching The Walking Dead, I began to crave chicken noodle soup. I must have burned myself as I found a burn welt on my wrist the next morning, but I find it hilarious that I didn't notice the initial event. Anyway, I was about half way into the bowl when it destroyed me. Destroyed as in, I sat there (I'm actually being serious right now) in the netflix screen after the episode had ended not realizing there was no motion picture. The night was fantastic, spent looking up at my ceiling, watching awesome shows on netflix, and just overall enjoying this level of krunkness I have never experienced without nausea. Usually, when I reach "that level" I can't enjoy it because I get sick in the process and just go to bed. But with the chicken noodle soup, man, dandy. Just dandy.



The end.



P.S. I do notice the glossy eye thing, but what's even worse is that the good ole dermopathy makes my eyes bloodshot too. I just blame allergies, and everything is fine. Well, it's a bit more difficult to blame allergies since marijuana was recently legalized in my state.
