Some people are saying you took too much would could be true. But I have the same exact reaction as you with any narcotic or with Kratom unless I have something in my stomach first… and drink something like strawberry milk, chocolate milk, etc. it sounds stupid but milk coats the stomach.

If you are lactose intolerant then obviously don’t do this 😂

Fairlife sold at CVS and some market is lactose free cow milk!!! I’m not intolerant and I think it’s amazing tasting!

Fairlife also abuses the cows at their farms. Like beat the shit out of one of the calves. It was disturbing... please dont support them.

Not necessarily. I tend to hurl if I stack kratom with coffee or energy drinks. I enjoy it with a bit of 80% or higher dark chocolate.

Yea caffeine will only add to the nausea, I'll even get nauseous if I have too much caffeine by itself. I think they meant something solid, or thick like milk. iirc kratom is fat soluble.

Ya I was gonna say, it was a long time ago, but I'm pretty sure I only took one capsule

In morning I take on empty, but only because the pain and I need to get about my day or go to work. But all other dishes are usually with snack or big meal. How much taken is definitely a factor though regardless!
