Our CO2 supercritical extracted Kavalactone concentrate, derived from Vanuatu-grown kava is standardized to ≥30+% Kavalactones, and has been verified to be produced solely from high-quality food grade roots, and has been independently tested for noble profile based on kavalactone chemotype.

Special cultivars of the Kava plant have been propagated for ceremonial and social purposes across Polynesia over centuries dating back to prehistory, when the plant was first spread widely by the seafaring Lapita people to numerous far-flung islands of the Pacific Ocean. The root of the Kava plant continues to be used traditionally in Pacific Ocean cultures of Polynesia, including Hawaii, Vanuatu, Melanesia, and some parts of Micronesia – where the root of the plant is macerated to yield a milky water-based emulsion of its active ingredients (the kavalactones) and consumed as a ceremonial drink, imbuing its users with a combination of prosocial, sedative, analgesic, and energizing / euphoric inebriating properties.

In modern times, Kava is now also consumed internationally beyond its original Pacific Ocean cultural use, both in its traditional beverage form, and as a dietary supplement for its mood-uplifting yet relaxing and stress-easing properties.

There are six major kavalactones occurring in the roots of the Kava plant, along with many minor kavalactones. The primary kavalactones comprise Kavain, Methysticin, and their dihydro counterparts (DHK and DHM), and Yangonin and its desmethoxy counterpart (DMY).

A noble variety Kava plant typically takes 3-5 years to reach maturity, at which point the whole Kava plant is often harvested and the desirable root segments are selected for sun drying. Aerial parts or improperly dried roots have lower concentrations of kavalactones and may also contain hepatotoxic compounds – thus careful harvesting and drying of the plant and selection of only the desirable root parts is required to produce a safe, high-quality Kava extract.

Do not drive or operate heavy machinery if intoxicated on Kava.

Amanita muscaria, often referred to as fly agaric, is a mushroom native to wet regions of the northern hemisphere, and is identified by its large, red cap with white detail. Its earliest recorded use in history can be traced back to around 10,000 years ago in ancient Sanskrit texts.
The active compound in amanita muscaria, muscimol, binds to GABA receptors to improve mood and promote sleep and relaxation. While further studies are needed to confirm additional benefits, evidence suggests that is consumed in large quantities, muscimol may be toxic.

NALT (N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine) is an acetylated form of the essential amino acid L-Tyrosine which has an additional active compound; acetic acid. The acetic acid within NALT helps to increase the bioavailability of the contained L-Tyrosine when taken orally as a supplement.

NALT has a wide variety of very powerful health benefits. NALT improves the biosynthesis of norepinephrine and dopamine which is known to maintain a healthy mood, reduce stress and sharpen cognition & memory. NALT may also indirectly support a healthy libido and remove harmful metals (such as mercury) from the body.

Triacetyluridine is a naturally-occurring compound and precursor to the nucleoside Uridine (pictured to the left). Uridine plays an important role in cellular signaling, and supports both CDP-Choline and dopamine levels in the brain. For this reason, Triacetyluridine is becoming a sought after dietary supplement for its perceived effect in boosting cognitive function, memory and mood.

– Promotes Healthy Memory and Cognition
– Potent Neuroprotective Benefits
– Supports a Positive Mood

Gastrodia elata extract has long been used in traditional medicine to treat a wide variety of symptoms and conditions. The medicinal part of the plant is the root, which houses the phenolic glycoside gastrodin used in medicinal preparations.
Current research suggests that gastrodin may be useful in managing neurological issues, though further research is needed to confirm these results. In supplement form, Gastrodia elata extract is often used for its anxiolytic properties.

– Reduce stress
– Improve cognition
