Anyone have a link to the report that came out recently announcing that Kava had little to no hepatoxicity?
Thanks!

Well I'm not entirely sure your logic is correct here, hehe, but do you or anyone happen to know where this report might be found? I'm trying to convince someone (a cynic...just my luck), that it is in fact safe, and that the older studies have been disproved.
Thanks!

Hehe, thanks, I'm finding a large number of abstracts and briefs on these reports but most of the sites require some sort of paid membership to access the entire report.
Greedy bastards!
