However, with new ways of using Kava, even more ailments are being treated by this wonder drug. With Kava being used for menopause relief all the way to treatment of asthma, we would soon expect to see this on the U.S. market. Although there is the conflict that lies between the use of kava casually and the mass production of this sacred pepper bush. There are many different ceremonial uses of kava around the world. The ceremonial preparing of the kava is called milolua.
Some places drink kava casually, although many people go through the whole process.
During ceremonial process some groups use a chant while preparing to drink the kava. Many of these groups use kava instead of many other depressents because of its effects on the mind. It puts them in a great state of mind enabling them to reach a deep, dreamless sleep. Also, the only other plant that is equal in effects is opium poppy, which is illegal. We found kava interesting, because we had never heard of that type of legal plant until a few weeks ago,and because of its many usefull treatments for the ailments that plague today's society.
