Drinking KAVA KAVA And Smoking Weed

I smoked some weed with Passion flower the other day. I'll never contaminate my precious buds again! Except for a blunt, maybe a spliff...

Dude guess what same here, best way to get rid of it, is taking aloe vera juice or gel preferably raw; prune, papaya and chia smoothies, it's worked form me so far, but definitely gotta get off the junk food, and of course chilling out, cause stress can kill you

Hmmm ill have to look into this... I'm doing fine on meds, but a good diet could never hurt. Yogurt was working well for me. But some people don't react well to the cultures.

Kava is an excellent anti anxiety herb, with very little side effects. But in my opinion it is also a depressant, so it might make you more depressed. Where it really excels is if you are hot tempered and get upset at people, kava kava will really take the edge off, pretty darn fast too. Lately I rarely use it because I didn't like the depressing element, and I don't think it helps me sleep, despite the fact it is relaxing.Taking it in moderation didn't seem to effect my work performance, which is actually a rarity for almost any herb or drug, xanax, for example, drastically hurts work performance. Needless to say I don't use cannabis when I am working because I do stupid and lazy things.

Truth be told, I actually preferred the high from Kava kava over benzos. Kava provided me with the familiar muscle relaxation, but did not sedate me in a way that benzos do. I was not indifferent, and things still seemed funny to me, and I was still able to laugh. On benzos, things don't seem as funny, and even if they are, the desire to actually laugh is slim to none. Kava did not put me to sleep, which was nice. I had no trouble staying awake to enjoy the feeling. It definitely intensified the weed high; i could feel a band of "highness" around my head at about eyebrow/ temple level. When I went to sleep, I fell asleep quickly, and began to dream almost immediately. I woke up this morning slightly groggy, but no worse than normal! There was no "zombie" effect today, which is what keeps me away from benzos.

Bandit, definitely try some out, but make sure you do a heavy dose if you really wanna get zooted!

I think I'm going to down some more kava now, and see how a strong dose feels without weed. Then I'm gonna smoke a blunt!


I will admit that I am a bit concerned about the effects of Kava on the liver. I'm going to have to make friends with the people in labs at hospitals so I can get some bloodwork done to see how my liver is. If there was definitive proof that kava is harmless, or even beneficial, I would take it every day!

i will definetly give it a try. ill see if i can get ahold of sum this week sumtime.

When I started doing heavy use of Kava actually did it to stop drinking alcohol, cause I had been diagnosed with mild alcoholic liver which means it was swollen, I didn't care much about the hype on toxicity since its evident 2,000 years of use in the pacific never detected or recorded those side effects, anyways my liver actually cleaned up and haven't gone back to alcohol since.
And it's definitely antidepressant people in the pacific drink alot of it every single day for a couple of weeks when they mourn the passing of a loved one

It does keep you awake but thats after 2 or 3 quarts or so of strong grog, and it'll cut your appetite.

How was your liver tested, if you don't mind me asking?

Just bombed 8.5 grams of 40% I better finish up my chores while i can still walk!

The thing you gotta watch out for when buying Kava is that it is only and only ground root, cause the leaf is the part that is liver toxic, that's how the hype came about, some unscrupulous German labs where making extracts using leaf and root and some people got sick from it.

I had some blood work done can't remember the name of the test, something about the liver and a sonogram too.

I have heard that, but I don't know how to verify for sure, short of having my product tested. I was given the source by a reliable person, and the quality is certainly better than the vitamin shoppe, but who knows for certain. Did your liver hurt at all when it was tapped from the outside, just below your ribs when it was swollen?



And good to know... I'm going in to the medical profession, so i was sort of asking just to see if my thoughts about how to test the liver were correct. They were! I'm not sure about tapping on it from the outside though. I know you might be able to feel if it is enlarged, but I don't know if there would be pain associated with liver damage or not....

12 grams was a little too much

u think 10 would have been better?

Probably. I took another 4 grams and smoked a blunt,but it wasn't until way later that I felt really messed up. Im not sure the first dose had kicked in completely by the time I took more

Whatever you do, stay the hell away from the benzos (valium, xanax, etc), they are incredibly nasty addictive. Take them for a few days and then try quitting. You will feel like shit. You will have tremendous anxiety, way worse than what you might have had to start taking these pills. You will feel like something is grossly wrong with the world and you. These benzos are evil. For sure try kava kava before letting some quack give you benzos. Kava has none of this bullshit addictiveness.

it hurts and you can feel it swollen when you got mild alcoholic liver
