What’s the best way to consume CBD products
There really is no best way. Many people like to eat them. Some like to smoke them. Really you need to find what is the best way for you that you like. Bioavailability is important and vaping offers the highest form of bioavailability while eating is one of the lowest. We also find that vaping allows you to mass microdose to the biggest bang for the buck.
What is Kava Kava
Kava (Latin name Piper Methysticum) is a beverage or extract made from a plant species belonging to the pepper family. This plant is native to the western Pacific islands, mainly Fiji, Tonga, and Hawaii. The plant is known as Asava Pepper or Intoxicating Pepper, it can grow to an average height of six feet. It has heart-shaped leaves that stretch to ten inches wide. The best way to consume kava is by drinking it. The traditional beverage is made by steeping kava, either fresh or ground into a dried powder, into room temperature water in order to extract its active components. The drink has to be shaken or stirred before it is consumed. It is a beverage and should be consumed that way. Extracts, pills, capsules, alcoholic solutions should not be considered kava. It’s like if you put caffeine in a pill, you cannot call it coffee, just like dried raisins in a capsule are not wine. Kava is legal in the United States and most other countries. There are even Kava bars you can go to, to try it. For centuries, Pacific Islanders have used kava as a medicinal plant because of its sedative, anesthetic, euphoriant, and psychotropic properties. This herb has been used to treat migraines, insomnia, infections, rheumatism, and anxiety. In some cultures, it is used for religious and cultural traditions, including weddings, political events, funerals, and royal events. Studies have shown that kava can effectively ease anxiety, relieve stress, and relax the muscle and nervous tension, as well as combat insomnia and improve sleep conditions. Kavalactones are the active ingredient in kava, there are six major kavalactones in kava. They pass through the bloodstream when absorbed, causing the plant to act as a muscle relaxant. Kavain is just one kavalactone that is concentrated mostly in the roots of the plant. It’s responsible for the feeling of relaxation. Although kava has sedative-like properties, its not an actual sedative. Kavalactones don’t affect the brain directly. The mild euphoric feeling comes from desmethoxyyangonin, another major kavalactone. It boosts your dopamine levels, this is why when you drink kava, there is no alteration of your perception of reality. Generally, there are no side effects when drinking Kava in moderation. It’s just like coffee if you drink too much you can have negative side effects. Studies have shown if taken enough it can cause liver issues. There still isn’t enough information about kava, research is still needing to be done.
What are the different kinds of kratom
The leaves of kratom have been used as a stimulant in low doses, a sedative in large doses, an anti-diarrheal and painkiller. It is said that Kratom affects the human brain similarly to an opiate although there is no conclusive clinical data proving how the alkaloids work in relation to the human brain.
Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is uncontrolled in the United States with the exception of Indiana and Vermont. This means all parts of the plant and its extracts are legal to cultivate, buy, possess, and distribute (sell, trade or give) without a license or prescription. If sold as a supplement, sales must conform to U.S. supplement laws.
When taken by itself (not mixing it with other substances), the greatest risk when taking Kratom may be falling asleep while engaged in hazardous activities. Like any other substance that may be mind-altering or affect your cognitive abilities, do not drive or operate heavy machinery while under the influence of Kratom. Always use common sense. Due to the lack of medical studies regarding the use of Kratom in relation to pregnancy, pregnant women should not take any drug or medication except at the medical advice from their physician. It is not known whether it could cause birth defects or fetal death. Once again, always use common sense regarding anything that you put in your body.
As a stimulant, used in low to moderate doses, the individual will experience an analgesic effect along with physical energy, alertness, increased libido, euphoria, sociability, improved mindset or mood, focus and overall improved demeanor. In some cases when taken in large doses, an individual may experience edginess similar to being over-caffeinated.
An a sedative, used in higher doses, an individual will experience an analgesic effect along with euphoria, a lower sensitivity to pain, both physically and emotionally, relaxation, anti-depression and anti-anxiety. Used in excess, it may result in a prolonged sleep.

How well does boro hold up to quartz?
When it comes to the strength of glass, borosilicate and quartz are the same. But when it comes to thermal resistance quartz has borosilicate beat. Borosilicate if heated past 1050 can cause stress in the glass making it weaker and more prone to breaking. It’s why it’s not a good idea to heat your boro to red hot. Quartz, on the other hand, can glow red and then be put in water for a fast cool down without the quartz cracking. No glass beats quartz when it comes to thermal resistance
What’s the difference between the DBV and SSV
There are a few differences from the DBV to the SSV. First, the SSV was the first vape made by 7th Floor. The Surfer sits at a 22-degree angle so no herbs fall into the heater. All Surfers now come with the spherical flavor disc wand giving it a larger bowl as well as no chance for the heater cover and wand to stick. The Surfer uses a hands-free attachment to lock the wand to the heater cover. The SSV has a hand made glass knob for controlling the heat. The SSV has a metal base while the DBV uses only a black plastic vape. The SSV can be made with nearly any graphic while the DBV only comes in silver or black. The SSV is more assembled in the USA compared to the DBV.
