guys i have been drinking kava from kava spirit 2022 that i bought on amazon and its amazing! after an exhausting day that saves me when its time to rest

[@brandhark7935]

Fiji is good too.

[@skylerbond56]

I love kava for me it helped me not drink, and helps with my anxiety so im not on antidepressants anymore.

[@floaty1017]

how about now? also do you have it in the morning for anxiety and is it only for a first few hours that it works for it?

[@JohnnyKimochi]

myself as a Polynesian from the cook-islands drinking kava from a coconut shell is the most greatest compared to using glass n plastic cup. The coconut also gives that authenticity 🥥

[@DonnieSpillers]

I'm just curious why everywhere around the world report liver toxicity but not the people that actually used it for centuries on their own islands, maybe they say that to scare people away from using it and their trying to protect the pharmaceutical market

[@JessicaNortonND]

The cases I’ve read about have either been from contaminated samples or dosages that are outside of what is traditionally consumed

[@writerscorp]

​@@JessicaNortonND That is correct. In the early 2000s, there was a scare regarding kava that was later debunked. It was determined that the suspected liver issues could not have originated from kava, despite initial claims sensationalized by the media for shock value and views. I have Pacific Islander friends whose families have consumed kava for centuries without any reported issues of liver toxicity. A key point: be very careful about the supplier you buy from and ensure they are reputable.

[@arynsinger6811]

My guess is inferior products or the mode of delivery. Some Kava is alcohol extracted and some is water extracted, I feel that would make a difference.

[@chrisdoggett368]

It does work but if your not careful you may have let yourself get carried away with it. Definatelly use moderately .i developed yellow scaley type skin called gator skin .and breathing issues hrart palipitations but i was taking 3 oz a day. Learned a very hard lesson.

[@OzzieBenzC300]

I finally built up my tolerance. After a week of using it the mornings was able to feel the full effect today. Amazing! I also noticed I stop eating from anxiety. I’ve always eaten when I’m anxious or depressed but after started to use kava my anxiety eating has disappeared completely. I’m soooo happy I decided to stick with if after the second day of usin it and not feeling it at all. The girl at the bar told me to give it a few more days. Boy am I glad I did!

[@JessicaNortonND]

thanks for sharing!

[@shukuru2]

Kava kava works great for me. I use it short term and in low dosages. Thanks 😊

[@JessicaNortonND]

Thank you for sharing!

[@tinatrachtenburg8489]

I love Kava! I have it in a tincture form called "anxiety soother" it is so good for calming and getting rid of symptoms from anxiety. I use ur with L-theanine and it's so good

[@JessicaNortonND]

Thanks for sharing!

[@cranke99]

I started using kava last October and have stayed a pretty moderate user and only on Friday and Saturday nights. I started straining about 6 to 8 tbsp and mix it with juice. About a 2 to 1 ratio. So 2 parts juice 1 part kava. After a couple of months my tolerance allowed me to go to 9 to 10 tbsp and the same amount of juice. But I overdid it last weekend and had kava 3 days in a row at 10 to 11 tbsp a night and have been feeling drained, slightly erratic at times and some mild to moderate anxiety. Most likely over did it. I think I know what not to do in the future.

Love your videos! ❤

thank you and welcome to the family ❤

[@applemonkey_1874]

I just drank 6 1/2 cups ( not shells) and im roasted as hell.better than alcohol imo.

[@JessicaNortonND]

🙃

[@skylerbond56]

Agreed I have no urge to drink at the end of my day just don't do it daily and make it a habit that'll get expensive.

[@matthewjohnson4328]

How do you have so much without feeling like shit in your tummy

[@SkRobiul-p3y]

Fine video❤❤❤.I love kava❤❤❤.my need kava❤❤❤. Where get kava❤❤❤..please Reply

[@Aquarian_Dreams1111]

What's the proper dosage based on pounds and/or kgs for a mild effect and how long does the effects of kava last?

[@bigglesharrumpher4139]

I mix one large tablespoon per coconut shell (1.2 cups) of warm water, with a tablespoon of coconut oil or milk (Its fat soluble as well). I squeeze and roll it through a strainer bag in a bowl for 20 minutes. The effects last for a couple of hours or more. I have used it for 15 years 3-4 times a week. These days with advanced testing and packaging and food regulations, the 'Liver toxicity' is not a thing.

[@samballard8774]

Most of the liver toxicity studies were proven to be false, if not even intentially misguided and have all but been debuklnked as anacdotol at best. There are studies howeverv showing it can reduce certain enzymes in the liver that can cause Other substances to be more toxic than they already are, like alcohol and even acetomenefin

[@lisareed9296]

I have powdered kava ( root). Don’t love as tea but ho can I tincture it? Please and thank you!

[@JessicaNortonND]

Yes you can, I like the book Herbal Medicine by Sharol Tilgner if you are new to tincture making

[@NanoLyfe]

Hi Dr. Jessica, Great video! We would love for you to experience Nano Kava! 1ml provides the same amount of kavalactones as a 6oz shell! Nanotechnology is at the heart of it!

[@JessicaNortonND]

I’ve not heard of this. You can email me any research at [e-mail]

[@aw2633]

I hate the taste but like the effects

[@celovai5043]

What about with adderall or Xanax?

[@JessicaNortonND]

Could increase effects of Xanax, talk with your prescribing doc

[@celovai5043]

@@JessicaNortonND nah shel probably take it away for drug seeking behavior maybe not shes shown me shes cool. But it definitely did increase the Xanax. After like 3 full syringes of the herb pharm kava added to some tea and ..wow.stromger than kratom honestly

[@vitorfernandes6747]

I take ssris can i take kava? While on it

[@JessicaNortonND]

It could cause drowsiness this is a combo to talk to your prescribing doc about

[@vitorfernandes6747]
