Kava Kava contains a concentrated extract of Piper methysticum root, standardised to 30% total kavalactones. Kavalactones are the best known active compounds in kava, and they are the reason kava is commonly used for relaxation, tension, and sleep support linked to stress or nervousness.
Because Kava Kava is a single-herb extract, the purpose is quite focused. You are taking kava root rather than a mixed bedtime blend. That can be helpful if you specifically want the calming effect kava is known for. The standardisation to kavalactones also gives you a clearer idea of the strength of the extract from capsule to capsule.
