[What is Kava?]

Kava, also known as piper methysticum, kava kava, and ‘awa, is a small shrub native to the islands in the South Pacific. The root and stems are made into a non-alcoholic, psychoactive beverage that has been used socially and ceremonially for hundreds of years in Hawaii, Fiji, and Tonga.

Kava is traditionally prepared by placing ground root and stem into a porous sack, submerging in water, and squeezing the juice into a large, carved, wooden bowl. Coconut half-shell cups are dipped and filled — punch bowl style. After drinking a cup or two a feeling of heightened attention combined with relaxation begins to come on. Although it is soothing, it is unlike alcohol in that thoughts remain clear. The flavor is largely inoffensive, but some find that it takes getting used to; it really depends on your preference for earthy flavors.

[Kava is Safe to Use]

The safe and effective benefits of kava to relieve symptoms of anxiety were also supported in a meta-analysis, a systematic statistical review of seven human clinical trials published in 2000 in the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology, and again in a similar critical review in 2001. The reviews did not find significant adverse effects related to liver toxicity.

In conclusion, the liver is affected by many substances, including prescription and non- prescription drugs, as well as alcohol, which is a major cause of liver damage. We must be aware that herbs are potent medicines, to be treated with the appropriate respect regarding potential interactions and toxicity, including to the liver. On the other hand, Kava kava’s margin of safety far surpasses that of it’s pharmaceutical equivalent.

[Function]

Kava’s can help offset a number of problems, most notably stress, anxiety, and disrupted sleep patterns. However, kava’s anxiolytic (anti-panic or anti-anxiety agent) and calming properties can offset many other stress and anxiety related ailments.

Many whole foods contain significant amounts of glutathione or its precursors. Foods richest in sulfur-containing amino acids are usually the best sources of glutathione:

The overall top food for maximizing your glutathione is high quality whey protein. It must be cold pressed whey protein derived from grass fed cows, and free of hormones, chemicals and sugar.
Quality whey provides all the key amino acids for glutathione production (cysteine, glycine and glutamate) and contains a unique cysteine residue (glutamylcysteine) that is highly bioactive in its affinity for converting to glutathione.

Glutamylcysteine is a bonded cysteine molecule (cysteine plus glutamate) that naturally occurs in Bovine Serum Albumin – a fragile immune component of the whey. This unique cysteine is exclusive to whey and rarely appears in other protein foods – which makes whey protein the best glutathione-promoting food source.

Furthermore, whey provides critical co-factors, immunoglobulins, lactoferrin and alpha Lactalbumin (also a great source of cysteine), which together help create the right metabolic environment for high glutathione activity.
Raw milk products, raw eggs and meat: Glutathione occurs in the highest levels in fresh, uncooked meats and raw milk, but is almost entirely absent in pasteurized dairy products.
Fresh fruits and vegetables provide excellent glutathione, but once cooked, values become negligible. Spinach, potatoes, asparagus, avocado, squash, okra, cauliflower, broccoli, walnuts, garlic and tomatoes have the highest glutathione per serving.
The herb milk thistle is an excellent source of the antioxidant compound silymarin, which may help to prevent glutathione depletion in the liver. Glutathione is crucial in the liver for detoxification and can become depleted from acetaminophen (Tylenol), alcohol consumption, and general toxic overload.
Curcumin may also be useful for increasing glutathione levels.
Keeping your glutathione levels up is a matter of increasing factors that boost your glutathione and decreasing factors that lower it. The things that deplete your glutathione the fastest are chemicals, toxins and sugar.

Polysaccharides (Complex carbohydrates)
Dm, Am, G
long chains of several hundred or thousand monosaccharides held together by 1-4 or 1-6 glycosidic linkages.
functions: energy storage(ex. Starch and glycogen) and alpha structural support( ex. cellulose and chitin).
(F#m, C, F on fret 3, F on fret 5)
starch is made up of 2 polysaccharides: amylose and amylopectin see fig. 9 on pg. 31).
F#m, G,D, A
Amylose is a coiled chain of unbranched alpha glucose held together alpha 1-4 glycosidic linkages. (See Fig 11a on pg. 32)
Amylopectin is composed of a main chain of linked alpha glucose attached by alpha 1-4 glycosidic bonds and branch points formed by alpha 1-6 glycosidic linkages. Plants store starch in chloroplasts, amyloplasts and other plastids.
Dm, Am, G
Storage form of glucose in animals is glycogen. Glycogen is structurally similar to amylopectin, however, the alpha 1-6 branch points are shorter and more frequent which results in a molecule that is highly branched.
F#m, C, F on fret 3, F on fret 5)
Humans store glycogen in the liver cells and the muscles. Enzymes in these tissues hydrolyze glycogen into single glucose molecules
F#m, C, G, D
for energy during physical activity.
Cellulose is a major structural component of the plant cell wall. It is the most abundant organic substance of earth. It is a straight chain polymer. of B-Glucose held together. by B 1-4 glycosidic linkages.
F#m, G, Am, C
In order for a reaction to occur between the hydroxyl groups on the carbon numbers 1 and 4, every other B-Glucose must be inverted. Humans do not have the enzyme to hydrolyses the B(1-4) glycosidic linkage, therefore cannot obtain energy from cellulose.
Chitin is a polymer of N-acetylglucosamine which makes up the hard exoskeletons of insects and crustaceans.
Coprophage
-eat their own poop to absorb missed nutrients
-had pelts during the day that are hard, and have soft ones at night which are edible to reabsorb the nutrients.
