What is Kava Extract?

Kava extract is a beverage or extract that is made from Piper methysticum, a plant native to the western Pacific islands. The name "kava" comes from the Polynesian word "awa," which means bitter. In the South Pacific, kava is a popular social drink. It is consumed as a beverage in ceremonies to promote relaxation.

Kava extract is most commonly used for anxiety. Some people take kava for stress, restlessness, sleeping problems (insomnia), and many other conditions. But there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.

Kava Extract Benefits:

Anxiety

The current body of evidence suggests that kava extract may aid in the treatment of anxiety, although there remains contention as to how effective a drug it really is.

According to a 2002 review of studies involving seven clinical trials and 645 people, kava was deemed to be an "effective symptomatic treatment option for anxiety," even though the effect was considered "small" by the researchers.3

The findings were supported by a 2011 review from Australia in which kava was considered more effective in treating generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) than a placebo.4 With that being said, a traditional kava beverage was recommended over supplements for safety reasons, along with regular liver enzyme testing to avoid toxicity.

Insomnia

Most of the research devoted to the use of kava extract powder for insomnia is limited to animal studies. It is believed that a specific type of kavalactone, called kevain, may provide the drug's sedative effect.

Of the available human research, one small study from Germany concluded that people provided a daily 200-milligram kava extract experienced significant relief from insomnia after 14 days.5

Despite the promising results, the conclusions were undermined by the subjective nature of "quality of sleep" questionnaire. Based on the study measures, even people provided a placebo had significant improvements in sleep.
