The worst herbal. Making you drowsiness and is not suitable for young people. They can get into a car accident. This herb should be banned. I made my son go to the emergency room.

I have severe anxiety and have tried many many meds including benzos.I find benzos are short acting and very difficult to obtain from your Dr. I found this online.Kava has been wonderful for me.I hope they do not ban it. I feel calm and happie than I have been in months.I truly did not think this would work but I was pleasantly surprised.

I found a bottle of Kava Kava tincture in a Health shop about 15 year ago, before it was banned. I found it incredibly effective for anxiety. Everything panned out smooth as velvet. A Lady I told about it had just lost her Father and she found it v helpful too. Was so sorry we coldn't get it again. Tons better than prescription drugs and their often horrible effects.

I have been diluting an alcohol-free kava kava DRIED ROOT extract tincture in a beverage. I feel safe taking it, as I believe the webMD side effects are listings for the entire plant, which parts have ill side effects, but not specifically for the dried roots- which I believe are in fact safe. I found this to be fast acting, effective, calming, and relatively long lasting. I drink 20-30 drops in tea a couple times a day and have been doing so for about a week and a half. I have experienced NO ill side effects, and have noticed improvement in mood and stress-levels, and the speed of my thoughts slows down. I am also on other psychiatric medications, and have experienced NO interactions. This doesn't provide complete and ultimate relief for me, as I have very severe symptoms, however it is a good aid and helps to an extent, and when I get upset, I have a cup of tea with the extract. Again, the dried roots I have read are not poisonous to your liver, as the rest of the plant is, and in years past companies were making it wrong, find a reputable company that makes it the proper way and I believe it is safe for daily use for long periods of time.

A safe alternative to alcohol and benzodiazepines. It works the same way as them on GABA A Receptors. The difference is that there are no side effects or any addictive properties. Works great for anxiety.
