Hey guys I'm new to kava and it is a lifesaver for me I'm so great full for the amazing benefits I have felt. I have anxiety disorder and it's gotten so bad I couldn't even live life and do the things normal ppl do but kava has made it so I feel like me again. I'm also a ex chemical opporater where I have been in a couple life threatening instances they could have taken my life a couple car accidents so it's like now I have ptsd and without kava I'm totally screwed bc I don't wanna go the pharmaceutical route but I've been doing research about liver toxicity and possible deadly reactions witch has me worried and with my anxiety even more freaked out and quite depressed honestly that now I may have to stop kava. I was just starting to smile and girls were throwing themselves at me bc I was comfortable and confident again I'm looking for help on this matter if anyone can help with knowledge. Most of the stuff online is old and seems contradictory and I've been researching for weeks like a madman. Thank you kindly for your time I see lots of intelligence on this forum with experience and wisdom I really hope I can continue with kava and I also want to drink it daily 3or4times to maintain normality, is this ok? Why have there not been conclusive scientific research and regulatory requirements yet, is this big pharmaceuticals work like with cannibis? Thank you greatly for your time, many blessings!

Kava should be safe for daily use. I linked this in another thread for you, but be sure to check it out. http://www.kavalibrary.com/The-Kava-Blog.html Also read "first time kava drinkers beware" the locked thread above this one written by Deleted User. Start slow because your work will need your full attention.

Drink it as often as you feel you need it. Kava has the ability to self-regulate your usage, so no worries there. In terms of safety what we can offer you is the countless anecdotal reports here of people who have had multi-panel blood tests which show no problems with people consuming kava on a regular, if not daily basis. Just be sure you're purchasing Noble Kava from a reputable vendor. If you're doing that, then you have no worries.

Also, glad to have you aboard!

@stonedape, I can really relate to your concern. Living with anxiety makes us create anxiety literally about anything "new" to us - "can I possibly be safe, healthy, normal etc. while drinking kava daily?" I have thought a lot like that aswell.
I have now been drinking kava on-off (sometimes daily) for about a half year (mostly at nighttime). It makes me sleep well and meditates my brain so that I simply function better at my everyday life. I am generally more aware of what I'll have to do in order to stay happy, healthy etc, simply because my mind is well rested. Restful sleep is in my opinion the most important thing in order to have a good quality of life. And kava helps you in the right direction on this matter. My conclusion is that since kava makes me sleep very well, and because this beats the negative side-effects (dry skin, bed lock etc.), kava is a allround safe and healthy remedy for anxiety to use everyday.

As long as you buy good kava you'll be fine. We have plenty of good kava to pick from here.
