Question

The herb I have chosen is kava and it has been used medicinally for anxiety but has not been fully proven to treat anything else. The current research says it has a small effect on anxiety but can cause severe liver damage. It can also cause an upset stomach and other negative side effects such as headaches and dizziness. Anyone with liver issues, pregnant or breastfeeding women should not consume kava because of dangerous pyrone constituents. Kava consumption may affect driving and coordination. Kava is usually consumed in the form of tea and is a natural plant that has been used for its calming qualities.
