kava kava anyone?
Hi Holly!
I've heard the same thing as Rod and John about Kava and the kidneys. I did try it a few years back, and had a hard time finding a quality herb (I was told to use the ROOT of the kava and not the LEAVES(?). I've also heard that herbs from the UK are the best [often used in place of scripts] and to stay away from supplements from the Orient [not always "clean" in that they contain herbs that aren't on the label]. Anyone elso heard this?).
I've been using passionflower and LOVE it- though I still take klono. in the am and pm.
I'd be curious to know what brands everyone uses since the FDA doesn't regulate vitamins/supplements, and I know that they're NOT all the same in potentcy (sp?).
