Yeah have fun with your liver for the 2 years that you have left with it.
Dude the Network i'm sorry but you never have anything positive to say. For more examples of the network, look further above in this thread, as well as any thread he's ever posted in.
The Liver problems associated with kava kava use are purely from using the leaves/stem. the root powder does not, i repeat, does not cause any liver damage whatsoever.
Kava- The legal intervention of several countries stimulated research, and hepatotoxic substances were found in the stems and leaves of the plant. Researchers from the University of Hawaii at Manoa found that an alkaloid called pipermethystine (formula 1), contained in stem peelings and leaves but not in the roots, had toxic effects on liver cells in vitro[40] and in vivo.[3] In rats fed with 10 mg/kg pipermethystine for two weeks, indications of hepatic toxicity were found. Comparable signs of toxicity were not detected with kava rhizome extracts
Along with many other studies indicating it is 100% safe.
But i would definiatly aviod pre-made kavakava capsules becuase they are not fresh and they could be any mix of root/stem/leaves. Plus the capsules will give you no sedating effects.
You gotta brew it up old school style!
