In my quest to find awesome alcohol alternatives that still make you feel great, I came across an ancient elixir called kava. I tried a cheap kava kava supplement and was unimpressed. A while later, I tried real kava. And in comparison, it knocked my socks off. So I brought on an expert to explain the difference, the science of kava, and what makes this such a prized plant.
Meet our guestCameron George is a researcher, writer, entrepreneur, and the founder of TRU KAVA, a company that is striving to set the industry standard for quality, safety, and education around all psychedelic plants including kava. Since discovering the amazing effects of traditional Kava during his own chronic illness, Cameron spent years investigating Kava and has collaborated with many of the most prominent experts in the world within the fields of Kava research and historical Kava use.
TRU KAVA is focused on developing scalable user-friendly products that deliver the full therapeutic action of the traditional kava drink, which is the only form that has been highly prized in the South Pacific Islands for over 3000 years. Cameron has spent years working within a network of functional medicine physicians with whom he has been involved in clinical research and protocol development for Neurodegenerative and trauma-related conditions.
