hi everyone,

I've come to terms with my very sensitive stomach so I'm wondering if mirco or instant would be better for me?

I know GHK uses a special process for their Micros, but since I have a SUPER sensitive stomach and throw up at the drop of a hat, would Instant be better, or is it not a potent as Micro? Perhaps Mr Chris can answer :)

Hi Skitty, the micro is not as fine as the instant so for sensitive people like you the instant would probably be better but the micro still might work for you, just at a lower dose and that is always dependent on the individual, some are even sensitive to the instant. I hope it is not the case with you but the only way to find out is to try it. Please let me know if you have any other questions, aloha.

Aside from what Chris has told you, I would look into mixing the kava with some coconut water or pineapple juice to mask the flavor, I am not sure if the taste is what bothers you or the kava itself. I can tell you from my experience, I tried the instant from Chris first now I just get the med grind, I have actually gotten used to the flavor.

I have pretty much migrated to instant only. I do have a bit a day with my morning coffee and the once or twice sit back and relax shells. So the cost is higher, but for my use habits, it's fine. I generally do not go for the Krunked state often. So with that being said, if it's the taste its nasty no matter what you do. There are kava candies, chocolates, etc from other vendors and that may hit the right spot, but in my experience the instant is better because you use less for the same effect. Those others are awesome and have their use, but they seem to leave out something in processing. Almost all the hard fiber is remove from the instant and only the good stuff is left. I would order the instant sample and try it. If that don't work try the Kava Kava Candy.

If I strain the micro, would I not be as likely to get nauseous?
No need to strain Chris's micro, the hard fiber that can cause these issues are removed first before processing. Not all vendors do this.
