Low-Alcohol Kava Kava Root is an extract of Kava Kava,which is said to have originated on the archipelago of Vanuata (which means 'Land of the Eternal'). It has been domesticated throughout Oceania (Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia) and it comes from places referred to by many of us as Paradise, including Fiji, Samoa, Tahiti, Tonga and Hawaii (where it is called Awa). • Supports Normal Relaxation from Tension Brought on by Daily Stress* • Promotes Muscular and Nerve Relaxation* • Encourages a Sense of Emotional Well Being*
Kava was used by eclectic physicians and physiomedical doctors practicing in the middle of the 19th century in North America as a genitourinary sedative and for pain associated with gonorrhea and other STD's. Kava was also used to treat a decreased flow in the glomeruli and for nocturnal enuresis (bedwetting). The native people of Oceania shared these uses as well as its use as a topical antiseptic and oral anesthetic, and to relieve the muscular pain from Asthma and T.B. as well as whooping cough, headaches, stomach ache, and tooth pain.*
Gaia Herbs produces Kava Kava Liquid Phyto-Caps and Liquid Extracts from lateral rhizomes and root-stock of the Borogu variety, which is one of the most potent strains of Kava on record and is ecologically cultivated by the native tribes of Vanuatu. Gaia Herbs uses only USP grade grain alcohol and water to extract its Kava. Resins and other fixed principles in plants are often extracted using methanol, butanol, acetone and hexane and spray dried into what is called a powdered extract. Gaia Herbs tests all of its products for heavy metal contamination and operates its Certified Organic processing facility under cGMP regulations. Gaia’s Vegetarian Liquid Phyto-Caps are easy to digest, assimilate and offer rapid absorption for a quick response. Each Liquid Filled Vegetrarian Capsule contains the equivalent of 1,250 mg or more than 3 capsules of crude herb.
Gaia herbs Alcohol Free herbal extracts are highly concentrated preparations that have been extracted initially with pure grain alcohol and then the alcohol is removed using low heat and low vacuum so that the plants vital constituents are not destroyed. The products are stabilized in vegetable glycerin. We routinely test each batch of product to insure it carries the same efficacy as our alcohol based extracts.

The exact mechanism of action on the central nervous system is unknown. One recent study found that Kava pyrones mediate effects on GABA-A receptors particularly in the hippocampus and amygdala. It is an approved medicine in many European countries for the treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder. It is likely that many chemicals in Kava contribute to the full effects of the herbal medicine.*
