Kava for anxiety?
Question:
Answers:
It may work but my experience with it is that it will put you far into a deep sleep if you take to much of it, if i remember correctly.
I don't think its an ideal treatment for anxiety if you have things to do.
I would prefer something like chamomile, valerian or damiana.
damiana would be my stand out preference, as it can dispel anxiety yet doesn't sedate you so you can still be alert and focus on what your doing.
Valerian Root works very well
yes kava is good for anxiety, one the best actually
but its safety is still under investigation
some may say it is safe but i think u will be more comfortable if u take something that is universally acepted as safe
aside from kava, which i tried personally and didnt help much, u can try a combination of valerian and passion flower, this combination showed good results in clinical studies
therefore u may want to try it
another option is l-theanine
another is 5htp
i tried all of these and it helped a little but i want something that really works
i tried them and didnt work, that doesnt mean it wont work for u, the best thing to do for u is to try, that s the only way in finding out if it will work
therefore u may start with l-theanine which is safe
but u may want to try what works for me, after trying all of the above, i tried a herb called ashwagandha
this herb is from india and now has a patented form called sensoril (they patented it which made me think that there must be something good about it, so i tried it)
i first tried the ordinary ashwagandha and according to indian literature, results can be felt in weeks, but i was surprized to see results in a matter of days, and what i felt was much better than what i felt when i tried everything i mentioned in the first part of this message
and so i was impressed , so i decided to buy the patented form, sensoril, and i m so glad that i finally found the anxiety help that i was looking for
yes, sensoril works for me, and is very very good and very very safe
i take once a day, i take jarrow(brand)
i cant find one here in the philippines so i order mine online
