⚠️ NEW PRODUCT ALERT | High Bioavailability Noble Kava Tablets | 1,000mg | Minimum 10% Kavalactones | Enhanced Traditional Water Extract⚠️

Comment · Thu, September 23, 2021 · 21 pts

We have found that total kavalactone percentage is a poor indicator of kava quality. We tested a lot of kava over the past 2 years. Some of them were 70% kavalactones. There was almost no correlation to total kavalactone

One tablet will be an appropriate dose for most people. The cool thing about kava is that it has a very friendly dose/response curve, too. You can take a lot of it without adverse side effects. So while most people will

I really want to hear how you respond to our kava. /u/Pretty-Chill is our product specialist, and he has been a kava enthusiast for years. I relied a lot on his experience and testing to get a feel for how normal kava us

Anything can be psychologically addicting. However, kava is not physically addicting like some other things. Always listen to your body, but kava has shown to be very safe when properly made.

I want to hear your opinion on it. We tested many kava extracts of the past 2 years. A couple of them were 70% kavalactone ones. We found them to kind of suck in comparison. There is something interesting happening with

Always be careful, but the kavalactones are reversible inhibitors of MAO-B, so they are not as risky as potent irreversible inhibitors are.

Yes, this is a special extract made to keep that traditional water kneading process that kava has been made using for thousands of years, but get it into a tablet form. It's our attempt at making a tablet that feels as c

It's our pleasure! I actually just took one of our tablets myself a few minutes ago!

If we can properly source and test it, I would have no issue doing other chemotypes. It's just hard to build relationships with these farms on these islands that will hold it to the standards we expect.

Ohh man, a kava bar on the first date. Interesting choice. LOL

We are not restricting it to the UK at this time. We'll see how things go and assess if we have issues. We rarely have issues with the UK, and we ship many packages every single day there. There have been some limited is

If you like the numbing effect, you can chew the tablets and leave them in your mouth for a bit. You'll get that effect. I actually do that a lot.

Comment · Fri, September 24, 2021 · 4 pts

I would say it is a medium numbing effect. Some kavas are a lot more numbing. Some are less. This one is in the middle. Sublingual seems to speed up the onset of effects a bit.

No, but we will have to see how it goes. It seems Germany lifted their ban when they realized the liver damage science was flawed. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26695707/

It's a nice calming effect with some mild pain relief.

Comment · Fri, September 24, 2021 · 3 pts

Ohh yeah, that's going to take some getting used to!

Comment · Fri, September 24, 2021 · 3 pts

Yeah, I think so. It's a unique starchy flavor that I quite enjoy. Many kavas are very bitter and gross. This one is not.

Comment · Sat, September 25, 2021 · 3 pts

The pain relief? Physical. Our extract is high in dihydromethysticin, which is one of the pain killing kavalactones. Combining this extract with some palmitoylethanolamide, tart cherry, and Rephyll gives a pronounced pai

The cholinergic system does seem to play a role in some of kava's effects. It seems to decrease acetylcholine in the striatum, by increasing acetylcholinesterase. https://academicjournals.org/journal/AJPP/article-full-t

Thanks for the honest feedback! As I was saying, I am not a heavy kava user. That's why I want to hear from people on it. You are correct in assuming we made this one for the average supplement consumer, not the heavy ka

Acetylcholinesterase breaks down acetylcholine, so increasing it lowers ACh. This is why acetylcholinesterase inhibitors like huperzine-A increase ACh levels.

Comment · Sun, September 26, 2021 · 1 pts

That's a bit simplistic, but they do act in opposite ways on acetylcholinesterase. Kava increases it, while huperzine-A inhibits it.

They absolutely do. It's been one supply chain issue after another for the past 1.5 years. Very tiring! The Sabroxy will be 500mg scored tablets. The 100mg capsules have moved to tablets now, too. So between the two off

So after talking to /u/Pretty-Chill, I think there are multiple things at play. To start, you are measuring efficacy much differently than we are. Not once in our testing did we even think about sleep inducing properties

It's a very effective stack! Many people are impressed when they try it.

I know they were weird about it like 15 years ago, but I am not sure now. Maybe wait to see how some of our shipments do before ordering.

Root extracts from noble kava should not have an effect on the liver. The studies that showed issues were kind of flawed, and the liver issues were from using non-root parts of the plant and non-noble strains. Obviously

LOL, they can be so dumb sometimes. Sativa means "cultivated" in Latin. Oryza sativa is rice. Avena sativa is oats. Lactuca sativa is lettuce. I guess that last one they might confuse with "the devil's lettuce" too. Haha

> All the greater reason to test it, and go from there, correct…? Absolutely. Till we test things we are just speculating. Perhaps your 70% is not spiked, but maybe doesn't have 70% kavalactones. Maybe they found a way

The kavalactones desmethoxyyangonin, dihydromethysticin, and methysticin do inhibit some CYP450 enzymes. This includes CYP2D6 and CYP3A4.

My pleasure! Safety is priority number one with this one. The amount of testing this extract has gone through is pretty nuts. We are talking pharma level analysis, which is why the cost is higher than some. In addition t

Do you have any citations for that? Anything official from the German government?

Comment · Sat, October 2, 2021 · 2 pts

Admittedly I am translating German, so maybe I am not reading it right. However, does that say it is banned altogether, or does it just revoke its ability to be in medicinal products?

I would suggest looking into emoxypine and agmatine for sensitizing GABA receptors.

It depends on the person and their tolerance to caffeine. I have combined them many times without issue, and you can even get coffee kava drinks at some kava bars. So people do it a lot. It just makes it more energetic t
