SamoaIn the central South Pacific, there is a group of islands known as Samoa, comprised of two countries, American Samoa, and the Independent State of Samoa.  It is in these islands that a unique culture surrounding the use and consumption of kava arose and is still in existence to this day.
Samoans mix the kava plant with water in a bowl called a tanoa.  The kava is strained using a special strainer called a fau, which comes from the bark of the Hibiscus tiliaceus tree.  The kava is strained and then the fau is tossed over the mixer’s right shoulder to a male Samoan with a tatau, or tattoo.  The fau is then emptied and handed back to the mixer.  The process continues until the kava is ready for consumption.

kava root powderWhat is Kava?

Kava is a depressent drug, which means it slows down the messages traveling between the brain and the body. Kava is made from the root or stump of the kava (Piper methysticum) shrub.

How is it used?

Traditionally, Pacific Islanders crushed, chewed and ground the root and stump of the shrub, then soaked it in cold water to produce a drink for ceremonies and cultural practices. These rituals were said to strengthen ties among groups, reaffirm status and help people communicate with spirits.
Our kava is micronized and can be mixed with anything instantly

What are the effects of kava?

There is no safe level of drug use. Use of any drug always carries some risk. Even medications can produce unwanted side effects. It’s important to be careful when taking any type of drug.
Kava affects everyone differently, based on:
• size, weight and health
• whether the person is used to taking it
• whether other drugs are taken around the same time
• the amount taken
• the strength of the drug
• the environment (where the drug is taken).

The following effects may be experienced:
• feeling happy and relaxed
• mild sleepiness
• numb mouth and throat
• reduced or loss of appetite.

If a large amount of kava is taken the following effects may also be experienced:
• drowsiness
• nausea
• loss of muscle control
• mild fever
• pupil dilation and red eyes.

Regular use of large amounts of kava may eventually cause:
• mood swings
• apathy
• dry, scaly skin
• malnutrition and severe weight loss
• getting infections more easily
• shortness of breath.

How much should I take?

Suggested serving size is between 2-5 gr. Start with a small amount if trying it first time.

When should I take it?

There really is no best time to take kava, and most people using it for therapeutic purposes will consume their kava ‘as needed’ throughout the day. It is claimed to be quite helpful before bedtime to get a good night
