Kava is a perennial shrub native to the South Pacific islands and Polynesia. While used to treat a number of illnesses by the people native to these regions, it was primarily a beverage for important social and religious festivals. The production of this tea from the fibrous root is a very precise affair.
Results from studies in both animals and humans have shown that constituents found in kava have a profound effect on the central nervous system, having a mild tranquilizing and relaxing action. A recent review of all the clinical trials available showed that kava extracts standardized to kavalactones are better than placebos and may be as effective as some conventional drugs in treating certain types of anxiety. Kava products are also commonly used to treat conditions such as mild insomnia and pain. | | | | | | | |
