NATURE'S SAFE HERBAL ANSWER TO STRESS, ANXIETY, SLEEP DISORDERS, MUSCULAR TENSION, OBESITY, HEADACHES, MIGRAINE Ð FROM THE PARADISE ISLANDS OF THE SOUTH PACIFIC.
In the cultures of Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia, the Kava plant (Piper Methysticum) has been prized for thousands of years as a mystical source of harmony and well-being. Traditionally the Kava root is ground as a powder and infused in cold water. The unfermented brownish-coloured beverage is then served in a ceremonial bowl or coconut half shell and features as an essential element in all important religious and social celebrations - an ancient pledge of friendship and tranquillity. During the mid 1700's, the famous explorer, Captain Cook, visited the islands and described this unique beverage as wondrously soothing and identified the source as the root of the Kava plant.

ANTI-STRESS RELAXANT
For the millions of sufferers of stress in our rushed, high-pressure world, Kava Kava could well be nature's soothing answer to harassed minds and bodies. Today, available in convenient tablet form, Kava Kava helps to promote gentle relaxation without loss of mental sharpness. According to scientific research and clinical studies, it appears to reduce stress and anxiety while evoking feelings of contentment and ease. When used in moderate amounts, Kava Kava not only seems to calm the mind and soothe the nerves, it also reduces edginess and irritability. As the mind eases and tense muscles relax, an increased sense of serenity and concord may be enjoyed.

STRESS, THE KILLER
Experts estimate that something like 60% of visits to the doctor are caused by stress-related problems that include heart disease, high blood pressure, arthritis and cancer. Modern research confirms that Kava Kava, nowadays commonly prescribed in Europe for anxiety disorders, may offer a safe herbal alternative as effective as major pharmaceutical drugs when used for mild cases of anxiety and insomnia. The effects of anxiety can include weakened immunity, nervousness, indigestion, difficulty in concentrating, sleep disorders, fatigue and general debility. Kava Kava, along with other anti-stress agents such as a sound diet, regular exercise and relaxation can do much to defuse stress.

RESTFUL SLEEP
In the islands of the South Pacific, Kava Kava is traditionally served at dusk, prior to the evening meal. After partaking of Kava Kava, most people tend to eat lightly as the herb has the effect of decreasing the appetite. Good news indeed for overeaters with weight problems. In the islands, Kava Kava is usually enjoyed with family and friends, however there is no shortage of local Kava Kava bars in these areas. To promote restful sleep Kava Kava is normally taken 30 minutes before going to bed. Lack of sleep is extremely exhausting to the mind and the body.

KAVALACTONES
Research shows that the main active constituents of Kava Kava root are a group of compounds called Kavalactones. Specific names for these Kavalactones include Kawain, Methysticin and Yangonin. Kava Kava works on the central nervous system to encourage relaxation and may be particularly helpful to those experiencing stress-related discomforts. Kava Kava appears to assist in stimulating the brain's own tranquilliser systems without side effects.
Anecdotal studies of Kava Kava embrace centuries of benevolent use as a unique stress-breaker and relaxant. We read that even the heart-shaped leaves are brewed to make a soothing tea for teething infants. It is also widely used to buffer the discomforts associated with toothache, sore throats, tension headaches, migraine and it can help you to lose weight naturally, simply by eating less. In addition, Kava Kava may offer assistance in helping to overcome addiction problems such as giving up smoking or chemical substances. Kava Kava should not be used by pregnant or nursing mothers. It should only be used in small quantites for short periods. Excessive use may impair the ability to drive or operate heavy equipment. It should not be used simultaneously with alcohol or anti-anxiety drugs. May cause loss of balance and appetite, tummy upsets and occasionally slight temporary visual enhancement.
