Kava May Cause Liver Damage
Derived from the Piper methysticum plant, Kava was traditionally made into a drink, but can also come in powder or tablet form. Since it has a calming effect, Kava is used to treat anxiety and aid sleep.
Medical News Today warns that Kava has been shown to cause liver damage, which is why several countries have restrictions on the substance. Furthermore, long-term use may lead to heart or eye problems and dry or yellowing skin.
