What is Kava? Piper methysticum, better known as kava or kava kava, is a very interesting plant that is found growing throughout Oceania on islands such as Papua New Guinea, Fiji, Tonga, Vanuatu, Samoa and the Solomon islands. Kava even grows on Hawaii but does not appear to be endemic to Hawaii and was likely brought over by ancient explorers from Oceania. The occurrence of Kava on Hawaii is quite fascinating as it gives us clues to ancient migration patterns but also to the importance of Kava. Even more interesting is the fact that Kava meant for consumption (Noble Kava) cannot reproduce which means that its propagation is solely due to humans taking cuttings of Kava plants and propagating them. This also means that without constant human interference for thousands of years, we wouldn’t be enjoying the benefits of Kava today! This again goes to show just how important Kava was throughout Oceania because why else would you go through the trouble of keeping Noble Kava alive for so long? This also brings up some additional interesting questions, such as where did Noble Kava originate and was it entirely due to human activity? This is still a big unknown, which further adds mystery and intrigue to the world of Kava!

First ND product I have not loved
Does not work even at a high-ish dose. I am a seasoned kava consumer and know how to take it correctly. Love everything else these guys produce, but this stuff is objectively no good.

Snake oil
Nice packaging. Doesn’t taste like anything. Didn’t notice any effect at all. Until I took six… then the diarrhea came. So if you want a wallet biopsy and a stool softener, here is your solution. Don’t expect any relaxing feeling (unless diarrhea and getting ripped-off is relaxing).

Works great
I take 1 tablet before anything social & it helps a lot with anxiety. It does give me a headache, every time, right after I take it but Tylenol fixes that. I break them in half & let it dissolve a little bit bc otherwise they’re really difficult to swallow. They don’t have as much of a mouth numbing/body feeling as drinking it. This is more mental & releases anxiety. I can feel my muscles relax & my thoughts stop racing after I take it. But it’s in combination with medication, so it’s the best solution as something otc. Edit: I’ve been taking these for about a month & it’s stronger every time. I’m down to only taking half of one next time. Reverse tolerance is a thing.
