What strains of Kava are less likely to cause nausea?

[kl.arkitech]

So far I've only tried Chief's Jungle which gave me a pretty good krunk using 5-7 tablespoons, but the feeling of nausea that comes with it is pretty strong. Can anyone recommend a potent strain with no nausea side effects?

Nambawan from Bula Kava House is probably a good bet since it's not high DHM but it's pretty potent. Most of the potent ones are going to be high DHM and more likely to cause nausea.

I think nambawan is still out of stock though /domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/frown.gif

I'd say wow or get a good Fijian, Paradise has a great one. I imagine N@H's white sand would be great as well. Usually the double-bonded kavalactones are what makes you nauseous. Try really any Fijian or something high kavain/low DHM like: melo melo, fu'u, KBR's Fiji waka or van3 when they have it.

Oh, bummer. I have an unopened bag yet that I'll sell for $11,000.

For a while I got sick too. The first time I threw up. After awhile I started eating like 15mins after I drank the kava. I can drink it with or without food now fine.

Another thing-I know everyone talks about not eating for best effect and all but if you start feeling a little sick eat a few crackers or a half of a sandwich or something small.  It can be the difference between an enjoyable night and a miserable one.
