What is kava?
Kava (Piper methysticum) is a shrub belonging to the pepper family,Piperaceae. The root or stump of the shrub contains kavalactones, which have sedative and muscle-relaxant effects.
Other names
Kava is also known as "kava kava",kawa(Fiji),waka(Fiji),lewena(Fiji),yaqona(Fiji),grog(Fiji),sakau(Pohnpei),'awa(Hawaii),'ava(Samoa) andwati(New Guinea).
What does it look like?
Kava can be in the form of a brown powder, in capsules, extracts, drops or mixed as a brownish-coloured drink.
How and why is it used?
Kava drinking in the Pacific Islands
Traditionally, Pacific Islanders crushed, chewed and ground the root and stump of the shrub, then soaked it in cold ** to produce a drink for use in ceremonies and other cultural practices. Kava-drinking rituals helped to strengthen ties among groups, to reaffirm status and rank in the community, and to communicate with the spirits.
Many Pacific Islanders who have settled in Australia continue their cultural practice of drinking kava, and in recent decades other Australians have taken up kava drinking, or using products containing kava extracts.
Kava drinking in Australia
In the 1980s, kava was introduced to Australian Indigenous communities in the north of Australia. It was thought that substituting alcohol with kava would reduce alcohol consumption and alcohol-related harms.
These days, kava drinking is not limited to ceremonies and traditional use. It is often used more heavily and for its sedative, hypnotic and muscle-relaxant effects, in much the same way that alcohol is used.
Herbal preparations
Kava extract is used in some herbal preparations. These manufactured tablets and preparations are sold as over-the-counter medicines to treat insomnia and to relieve stress and anxiety.
Effects of kava
The effects of any drug (including kava) vary from person to person. How kava affects a person depends on many things including their size, weight and health, also whether the person is used to taking it. The effects of kava, as with any drug, also depend on the amount taken.
There is no safe level of drug use.Use of any drug always carries some risk—even medications can produce unwanted side effects. It is important to be careful when taking any type of drug.
Physical effects
Moderate doses
Kava acts as a sedative and muscle relaxant. Drinking it in moderate amounts can make a person feel happy, sleepy and relaxed. It can also numb the mouth and throat and reduce the person's appetite.
Higher doses
Drinking large amounts of kava may result in sleepiness, nausea and loss of muscle control.
Excessive use of kava has been associated with a number of health-related problems. Some of the unpleasant side effects include:
bloodshot eyes
dry, scaly skin
malnutrition and severe weight loss
increased susceptibility to infections
loss of muscle control
shortness of breath
chest pains
high blood pressure.
Psychological effects of kava
Excessive use of kava has been associated with mood swings and a general state of apathy. Psychological problems such as depression and schizophrenia may be complicated by excessive use of kava.
