What is Kava?
Kava refers to both the plant and the beverage made from it. The beverage is prepared from the root of a shrub called the pepper plant, Piper methysticum, found in Polynesia, Melanesia, and Micronesia. The root is ground to a powder, which has a brownish color. The powder is then mixed with water and consumed as a beverage, without being fermented.
The intoxicating effect of Kava can alleviate the symptoms of many conditions, spanning from daily stress, anxiety disorders, to menopause.
