Kava (Piper methysticum) is a tropical plant whose root is harvested and ground into a powder that is used to make a drink. It is primarily taken to ease anxious feelings, acting at the GABA A and other neurotransmitter systems. Because large or prolonged doses can lead to liver injury, mood disturbances and skin changes, it should be used sparingly and only in root‑based preparations.
