Fun fact

Yangonin, in lab tests, is protective against chemically-induced liver damage from a compound called lithocholic acid. Hmm. Interesting...

Isn't it interesting that when studied individually these kavalactones can show toxicity and at the same time protective actions? More evidence towards the thought that the entourage effect plays an important role in kava's overall effect, and safety profile.

It is fantastic and now we have even more kavalactones to study.
