Take 2

[MaureenP]

I've been super busy lately and forgot about my new kava stash....My first try was not successful, due to my shoddy preparation method. Well...tonight was take 2...I used half a cup of powered Nangol Noble to 2 cups warm water in a filter bag. I massaged the heck outta it for about 12 minutes..I checked the grind when i was done and there was no oily residue. I just took a few sips of my first shell and what a difference. I now know what you guys mean when you talk about your mouth feeling numb. It doesn't taste THAT bad...although it is not exactly pleasant. Thanks to all those that provided advice :0) Cheers, or should I say Bula!

I'd love to see a report on the effects after you got a few shells in, @MaureenP!

I'll see what I can do Steve...Just finished first shell, about to go for a second, nothing yet except lightly numb feeling in my mouth.

Hey that's the way we roll here. After a few more sessions, I'm betting you'll be able to pass your experience on to the next Newbie!!!

I have a question....do you have to drink kava everyday to get past reverse tolerance or would 2-3 times a week be good enough?

It's generally recommended to drink it daily until you've broken through your reverse tolerance. Then you can back down to a few times per week.
