Contraindicated!
There has been much publicity lately for Kava, a newly popular herbal
product that is being praised for its ability to relieve anxiety and
insomnia.  The Wall Street Journal has called Kava the "Next Herbal Star."
Tests have supported claims made for Kava.  Be warned,however.  Do not take
Kava if you have PD for it may cause an increase in PD symptoms such as tremors.

Hello Sid,

Can you tell me what are the ingredients of this herbal product, and more
specific: what ingredient(s) is/are causing the increase of PD-symptoms?

Greetings,  Hans.
