Kava and Prescription Medication
We know kava, we know how it affects us personally (all people experience things differently, just like with coffee and alcohol), and we know it is safe by itself. If you have any questions about how kava might react with your prescription medication, or any medication, the very best person to talk to is the one who prescribed that medicine to you; your doctor!

We take bringing you the best Kava we can grow and/or source as seriously as we have taken Kava as a business in our family for many generations.

Hi everyone, Makaira here! I hope you’re all keeping healthy, happy and enjoying the frosty days! Though on Hawaii it never gets too chilly, I often find the changing weather can be tough on our beloved kava plants as the sun recedes and the winter rains set in. On the farm, we all have to work hard to nourish and care for our plants in their entirety, from roots to vines to leaves. The challenging physical work of managing the farm often makes me contemplative, and lately I’ve been mulling a question many of you out there may also have—are kava leaves good for anything?
