[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.

Golf and sunshine go hand in hand, but playing without the proper sun protection can lead to major health problems. The sun is a good thing. It supplies us with vital nutrients necessary for our survival. In fact taking in a small amount of sunlight is a sound way of promoting overall health. Beyond that, though, you need to protect yourself. In the tips below, our MAKE THE TURN LEAN 18 nutrition coach Cate Ritter breaks down all you’ll ever need to know about having fun “safely” under the sun!

Get a Healthy Dose of “D”

Sunshine is the best source of natural vitamin D, which improves calcium and phosphate levels in the blood, supports mental health, strengthens bones, boosts immunity, fights cancer, reduces inflammation, improves mood and enhances well-being. Depending on your skin tone, age, diet, susceptibility to sunburn and the intensity of sunlight, a healthy dose of “D” is 15-60 minutes daily. Once you start turning pink, consider the reinforcements below.

Avoid Overexposure

Although it’s good to be pro-sunlight, you want to avoid overexposure, a.k.a. sunburn. First, seek sunshine in the morning or late afternoon and avoid midday, peak UV radiation. Second, bring an umbrella or find shade under trees. Third, wear protective clothing such as hats, long sleeve shirts, pants, and sunglasses. Lastly, apply a safe, mineral-based sunscreen.

Select Healthier Sunscreens

Many sunscreens contain harmful chemicals and hormone disruptors that release free radicals in sunlight, are absorbed through the skin, create hormonal imbalances, and can cause skin irritations/allergies. Always read the ingredients label and avoid: oxybenzone, methoxycinnamate, PABA, and vitamin A (retinol or retinal palmitate). Choose mineral-based sunscreens with the following active ingredients: zinc, titanium, avobenzone or Mexoryl SX.

Eat Protective Foods

Nutrient-dense foods high in antioxidants protect your skin from the inside out. Enjoy foods rich in betacarotene (carrots, sweet potatoes, red peppers), lycopene (tomatoes, pink grapefruit, watermelon) vitamin E (almonds, asparagus, pumpkin seeds), catechins and polyphenols (green/white tea),omega-3s and astaxathin (salmon, fish oil), resveratrol (blueberries, red grapes, red wine), natural saturated fats (coconut/palm oil, pastured butter) and proanthocyanidins (grape seeds, wine, blueberries, hazelnuts, pistachios).

Supplement For Support

Fish oil, grape seed extract, resveratrol, and vitamin D supplements provide protection from sun damage. Vitamin D from the sun is regulated by the body, making it the preferred source, but a supplement can be a good alternative. Ask your doctor to get tested and start specific supplementation.
