[What is Kava?]

Kava, also known as piper methysticum, kava kava, and ‘awa, is a small shrub native to the islands in the South Pacific. The root and stems are made into a non-alcoholic, psychoactive beverage that has been used socially and ceremonially for hundreds of years in Hawaii, Fiji, and Tonga.

Kava is traditionally prepared by placing ground root and stem into a porous sack, submerging in water, and squeezing the juice into a large, carved, wooden bowl. Coconut half-shell cups are dipped and filled — punch bowl style. After drinking a cup or two a feeling of heightened attention combined with relaxation begins to come on. Although it is soothing, it is unlike alcohol in that thoughts remain clear. The flavor is largely inoffensive, but some find that it takes getting used to; it really depends on your preference for earthy flavors.

[Kava is Safe to Use]

The safe and effective benefits of kava to relieve symptoms of anxiety were also supported in a meta-analysis, a systematic statistical review of seven human clinical trials published in 2000 in the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology, and again in a similar critical review in 2001. The reviews did not find significant adverse effects related to liver toxicity.

In conclusion, the liver is affected by many substances, including prescription and non- prescription drugs, as well as alcohol, which is a major cause of liver damage. We must be aware that herbs are potent medicines, to be treated with the appropriate respect regarding potential interactions and toxicity, including to the liver. On the other hand, Kava kava’s margin of safety far surpasses that of it’s pharmaceutical equivalent.

[Function]

Kava’s can help offset a number of problems, most notably stress, anxiety, and disrupted sleep patterns. However, kava’s anxiolytic (anti-panic or anti-anxiety agent) and calming properties can offset many other stress and anxiety related ailments.

LOADED BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP

Serves 6

1 cup chopped yellow onions
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup matchstick carrots
1 Tablespoon olive oil + 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
4 Tablespoons butter
½ cup flour
1 32oz carton chicken stock divided 3 cups + 1 cup
2 cups half and half
4-6 cups fresh broccoli florets, chopped down into small pieces
16oz velveeta cheese, cubed into small squares
1 tsp granulated garlic or garlic powder
Pinch of cayenne
Grated fresh nutmeg
Salt and pepper
One sourdough loaf torn into hunks

In a large heavy bottomed pot or dutch oven over medium heat, saute onions, celery, and carrots in olive oil and 1 T butter. Saute until tender. Stir in the 4 T butter until melted, then shake flour over the veggies. Stir to coat and cook/stir for about 2 more minutes. Pour in 3 cups of the stock; stir to combine with the veggies and the flour. Add half and half, stir well. Bring just to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Stir in broccoli florets and cheese. Stir so the cheese melts into the stock/cream. Add cayenne, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and adjust.

Set the oven to 400F. Spread sourdough hunks on a sheet pan. Drizzle them with olive oil and season them with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne. Toast for 10-15 minutes until a little crisp but still chewy on the inside.

To serve, ladle into soup bowls, top with green onions and hunks of toasted bread. And maybe bacon if you happen to have any bits.

TOASTED BREAD BOWL OPTION

Carefully hollow out sourdough rounds. Line them up on a sheet pan. Drizzle rounds with olive oil. Season them with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne. Toast for 10-15 minutes. Ladle soup into bread bowls and garnish.
