Kava Acid Free Coffee
Kava has long been enjoyed by Pacific Islanders as a non-alcoholic drink to reduce anxiety and enhance sleep quality, with multiple double blind placebo controlled studies showing its beneficial properties.
Kava can reduce anxiety due to the kavalactones contained in it that attach to neurotransmitters and decrease activity in certain regions of the brain.
Benefits
Kava, a naturally-occurring plant from the pepper family, is said to foster feelings of well-being, ease anxiety and promote restful sleep. It has an alternative relaxing effect unlike those produced by benzodiazepines or alcohol; unlike them, however, kava does not lead to physical dependency or intoxication; its interactions with GABA receptor pathways mimicking those produced by SSRIs; clinical trials have demonstrated its efficacy as both an anxiety reducer and sleep enhancer without inducing as much physical dependence or psychological addiction like its counterparts do benzodiazepines or alcohol would do.
Kava is often consumed in the form of a drink. Ground kava root powder is mixed with water or other beverages and then filtered to remove fiber; then drunk to experience its effects. Due to this popular trend, more and more kava bars have popped up around the world, offering patrons a social scene and alternative to traditional bar culture. Pre-dosed tablets or capsules of kava supplements are also readily available on the market.
Kava coffee is an increasingly popular beverage choice for those searching for healthier beverage alternatives to regular acidic coffee, offering all of its rich flavor and aroma while having up to 50% less acid per serving. Enjoyed hot or over ice, it makes an excellent beverage option.
