What is Kaviar Kavalactone?
Rick Wolf asked: How come I have seen pictures from two different people claiming to sell 84% kavalactone liquigels that look exactly like the ones i just received from you? They are exactly the same, the color of the gel capsule varies from yellow to milky in the picture from the wholesaler just like the ones I received from you. Do you sell your product to wholesalers? How come their kava pills looked exactly like the ones I received from you? Makaira says: We are probably not the only ones in the world who sell kavalactone liquigels, and since the product contained within the liquigels is...
Read MoreCan You Smoke Kava Leaves?
Mr. Owoo asked: Where may I buy Kava crushed leaves to smoke? – I heard that you can feel similar effects from that as drinking Kava Kava. Makaira says: We do not sell the leaves because there is some research indicating that they may be poisonous to humans. Our leaves are simply ground up, and returned to the soil to help give our Kava Kava plants the required nutrients they need to continue to flourish year after year. To each their own, but what is the need or desire to smoke any part of the Kava plant when there are so many forms of Kava available, such as liquigels, powders,...
Read MoreDo You Use Underground or Lateral Roots?
Philippe asked: I recently ordered some of your kava, and I noticed that on the package it says” 10% underground root, and 90% lateral roots” for your kava. Other sites and yours say that the lateral roots are the strongest part of the plant, but I remember seeing somewhere on your website that use use 10% lateral roots and 90% underground roots. Also, wouldn’t you be in danger of getting leaves and stems in your kava if you harvest 90% lateral roots as your packaging says? – Please clarify for me if you would be so kind. Makaira says: So sorry about the confusion,...
Read MoreCan I Use a Solvent to Extract Kava?
Jon asked: I’ve heard you you can extract the kava root with nail polish remover instead of water and it has no negative effect on the kava. Because the nail polish remover evaporates a lot faster than water this would lessen the time you have to wait for preparing a pure solid/paste form of kava, and the only thing you have to differently is, after the paste seems to have dried it just mix it up and let it air out to make sure you get all of the nail polish remover out. Makaira says: Wow, just when we thought we heard it all! – Since we advocate the most natural use of this...
Read MoreKava Made Me Feel Wired – Why?
Ed asked: I tried Kava (30ml liquid drops) for insomnia and got quite the opposite effect. I lay in bed for an hour or so. Earlier that day, I took Claratin, which seems to wire me, so maybe that’s the reason. So, my questions are as follows: Should I give it time? – Should I take more? – Or should I try another type such as a liquigel? Makaira says: By law, I am required to say this: We are not doctors and are therefore unqualified to offer any discussion or advice in relation to the questions you pose.
