I don't think it's antibiotic, but it is a very potent local anesthetic.

There are some references on the internet that say it has antibacterial properties. They aren't from definitive sources, but it still leads me to think it's possible. Here's one I found interesting.
- Medicinal Uses: * Anxiety * Aphrodisiac * Dental/Oral Care * Dysmenorrhea * Headache/Migraine * Polynesian * Sleep/Insomnia * Stop Smoking * Stress
- Properties: * Analgesic * Anodyne * Antibacterial * Diaphoretic/sudorific * Diuretic * Expectorant * Sedative * Stimulant It certainly tastes a lot better than the garlic I usually break down and use when all else is failed.

Yeah, but that's not a scientific reference. I would be interested if anyone can show me a peer-reviewed scientific paper that claims antibiotic properties. I'm not trying to be a douchebag by saying this, but that kind of stuff--popular science--is notoriously unreliable.There are some references on the internet that say it has antibacterial properties.

I would also like all the kava vendors across the land to send me one pound of each of the kavas they sell, but that is not likely to happen anytime soon either

Well, I assume if such a paper exists, someone here would be able to dig it up. I have looked (using Google Scholar) and couldn't find anything. So I guess that was just a snarky way of saying that I don't believe such a scientific paper exists...I would also like all the kava vendors across the land to send me one pound of each of the kavas they sell, but that is not likely to happen anytime soon either

Is it also effective as a cure for Melanesia?I had to laugh that the list of medicinal uses includes "*polynesian" , the link explains what Polynesia is, but at first I had to chuckle that I had never be afflicted with polynesian before

I have read all kinds of malarkey about the positive effects of this-or-that plant or tree. Have you seen those memes on Facebook that claim that onions and ginger cure heart disease and boost the immune system or that pot cures cancer and makes you thinner and fitter? It's all unsubstantiated gossip.

Those memes led me to the conclusion that:
A) Facebook is evil
- surveillance
- control
- indoctrination
- domination
- manipulation
- ambiguity
- recommended by "friends"
- clogged think box
Or as we say in the bunker "ScidMarc".

The "certifiable" part is correct.
