All participant data will be shared with all participants digitally! This is just one way that we aim to increase transparency in natural products research. On a personal note, I have a lot of experience with kavalactones - as a root powder, tincture, wax concentrate, carbonated drink, and the traditional root drink in a ceremonial bowl. If you’re interested, you know where to look where I put all my clickables. Kava helps me emotionally regulate and I’m really excited to see if others have the same experience. Kava is interesting politically because it is to my knowledge the only natural medicine to be banned in the US to be completely vindicated soon after the scientific data was found to be low quality. This is ironic given the current scheduling of cannabis where we have mountains of data showing that the initial data for scheduling is of extremely low quality. Thanks to everyone who is out there supporting us trying to move this boulder inch by inch. Comment any questions and me and my team will get back!

Every time you post I get a little closer to purchasing a chemistry model kit. 😂🙌

Miyabe Shields, PhD Did you consider mixing it into dark chocolate to combat the strong taste of the kava?
