Kava

[heartbeat]

Anyone have any info on Kava. I've looked on erowid but found nothing really informative. Any kind of information is welcomed.

kava is pretty pointless. i've tried it a few times and never really got much out of it. plus a friend of mine read a news article on how kava has now been proven to cause cancer(i think he said liver cancer) although i can't back this up maybe somebody on here has seen the article or can find a related article.
so my 2 cents are just buy real drugs and have some fun

From the looks of these articles Kava seems to prevent cancer. But can cause hepatic (liver) toxicity and even failure.

A Kava buzz is the kind of buzz you can 'function' on normaly. Its not like an O just wana sit here and do nothing buzz, its more of a damn its a nice day and im gona enjoy it buzz.
When I do it i normaly take half of a 60 pill kava bottle, which is around 1 mg of kavalactones, butI dont due it to aften just because it DOES turn your skin a bit yellow, which worries me about liver toxicity. Maybe a high dose of milk thistle beforehand would help?
Oh yea, it has great synergy with weed as well. Perfectly mellow without being incapacitating
