Kava kava (Piper methysticum) is a plant from the South Pacific that’s useful in promoting relaxation, sleep, and a mild feeling of euphoria. In Greek, kava means “intoxicating beverage,” and kava kava lives up to that name: In small doses, it can calm hyperactivity, relax tensed muscles, and ease anxiety. Many people report that they remember having vivid dreams or recalling their dreams more often the next day when taking kava before bed.
Kava kava also has some pain-killing effects: Chewing on the leaves from this plant can ease pain from a toothache. In addition, the Chinese believe that this herb opens areas of blocked energy and restores better circulation and energy flow throughout the body.
