What is Kava Root Extract?
Kava root extract, also commonly known as kava pepper, is native to the islands of the South Pacific. For centuries, Pacific Islanders have used it as a ritual drink to promote relaxation. In recent years, kava has gained widespread attention for its relaxing and stress-reducing effects.
Kava root extract came from the rhizomes of a perennial shrub in the South Pacific Islands. The term kava comes from both the kava plant and the kava extracts and is typically consumed as either a capsule or table containing either ethanolic or acetonic extracts. The active ingredients in kava are kavapyrones, also known as kavalactones, which have psychoactive properties.

Kava Root Extract Benefits
1. Sleep Disorders
Kava's potentially sedative effects are due to the blocking of sodium and calcium ion channels, increased neurotransmitter binding to GABA-A receptors, inhibition of monoamine oxidase B, and an increase of the neurotransmitters noradrenaline and dopamine.
Although promising, the evidence to support the use of kava in sleep disorders is insufficient. More clinical trials on larger populations are needed to confirm these preliminary results.
2. Depression
In a clinical trial on 60 people with generalized anxiety disorder, oral kava extract (250 mg kavalactones per day) reduced both anxiety and depressive symptoms. Its combination with Saint John's wort improved depression (but not anxiety or quality of life) in a small trial on 28 people with major depressive disorder.
Bulk kava extract induced a pleasant mental state while reducing fatigue and anxiety in human and animal studies. Kavalactones in kava increased dopamine, serotonin, GABA (only slightly), and decreased glutamate in cell models. Again, the results are promising but only two small clinical trials have been conducted. Further clinical research is required to confirm the potential benefits of kava in people with depression
3. Brain Function
A single dose of kava extract (300 mg) improved accuracy and performance in attention, visual processing, and working memory tasks in a small trial on 20 people. In another trial on 12 people, kava kava root extract (200 mg, 3x/day) slightly improved performance in a word recognition task.
Kava pyrones are active in parts of the brain (amygdala, caudate nucleus, and hippocampus) that deal with emotions and brain processes. However, chronic usage and higher doses of kava can result in impaired motor function. Because only two, very small clinical trials have been conducted, there is insufficient evidence to support the use of kava as a cognitive enhancer. Further clinical research is needed.
