not really feeling the effects

hey its me again i got some melo melo friday i have allready killed over half the kilo and my lips havent gotten numb then ill get the buzz for like 20 min but thats it ive been drinkin around 4 cups of kava to 8 cups water every day since friday and feel it less and less i heard you built a reverse tollerance but it doesnt seem that way to me

Melo melo is kinda mediocre with respect to effect strength. It's a very nice kava though.
try something like black bag or paradise fijian. Try consuming it in the morning first thing after an all night soak. I find you need to have one breakthrough krunk and then it's all gravy from there.

The Fu'u from BKH is great, nice light taste and a mellow buzz, it never got me krunked though, well, lightly krunked. Their boroguru is some pretty potent stuff though, for me it's comparable to having a few beers and getting a buzz accept more euphoric. Good luck on your kava journey!

Yea, a good break through krunk is what it takes as NDG so eloquently put it...i've been powering through a variety of kava's for the last month with mixed success until lately (this past weekend) and now it seems every session is epic.(smiley: smile)

hey do you guys drink this stuff all day everyday to does it kinda make you feel sick is there something you can take to kind of even the grogyness down or is it like beer and ill just get use to it

 

[kl.pep]

i've been doing only evening sessions but have to pop antacids everyday to avoid upset stomach. Yea, i've been groggy throughout the day which sucks, and i don't know how to get rid of that...

I think your body after awhile will adjust to the grogginess, I used to get that when I started, but now I actually feel more rested most of the time. I think it just takes awhile. However, I would in the mean time recommend either green tea or Yerba maté so give you some clean balanced energy. Or if you would prefer, an energizing strain of kava such as tongan pride from kava by Rex. I have never tried this but I don't think I have ever read a review on it that did not say it wasn't energizing. Hope you continue to enjoy kava despite this issue!

Pep, I'm worried about you. Consider replacing antacids, which can cause permanent heart arrhythmia, with d-limonine.
