kava fresh root juice dehydrated and powdered dosage?

Swim acquired a new form of kava he's unfamiliar with: fresh root juice dehydrated and powdered (which is free of plant material)

so Swim would like to know if anyone has had personal experience with this preparation and could tell swim how much he should use (orally) for some strong effect (inebriation with happy laughy mood).

ps: swim has had experience with 60% kavalactones extract previously which gave him little effects beside mental and muscles relaxation along with pronounced sedation, so swim hopes that the new preparation he has acquired will be more happy and social.

Re: kava fresh root juice dehydrated and powdered dosage?

My panda acquired some quality powdered fresh root juice some time ago, and he says it was one of his favourite forms of Kava, even if it wasn't the most cost effective.

He would use a blender with it, as it doesn't like to emulsify, in milk at least. It sort of floats around even after you mix the heck out of it. It works well for sublingual ingestion though, which swiy may want to consider.

Hard to say on the dose, as my panda never really used exact measurements with the stuff. Its certainly less than regular root powder (you don't have nasty bark-like pieces to deal with which is nice), so start off conservative, maybe half of what swiy would use with a quality regular powder, and go from there.

Let us know how it goes.

Re: kava fresh root juice dehydrated and powdered dosage?

well swim has only 10g of the stuff.
Swim has heard that 30g of powdered root would be a strong dose.
Do swiy suggest ingesting the all 10g all at once? (is it safe?)

Re: kava fresh root juice dehydrated and powdered dosage?

The 10 grams should provide swiy with at least a few beverages, if not more, depending on potency. One would be overdoing it my panda feels, if swiy's powder is anywhere near as potent as his was.

My panda suggests starting with a gram or two, seeing how that goes, and then making another drink if necessary, and so on. Work up until swiy feels the appropriate dose has been reached. My panda is pretty sure he never used anywhere near 10 grams of the fresh root juice at once!
