Does kava kava cause liver damage?

With PCOS, I am always very cautious about taking any new herbal supplements because our hormones and liver are already sensitive. I've read that Kava Kava can be quite hard on the liver, so I personally avoid it. It is always better to discuss with your doctor first.

Even natural, plant-based things can have strong side effects on our internal organs. I prefer sticking to simple, whole foods and traditional herbs like tulsi or turmeric which are thoroughly tested. Please do your research before consuming such foreign herbal supplements.

Managing high BP has taught me that we shouldn't stress our organs with unnecessary supplements. Kava Kava has a known association with liver issues in many medical reports. Keep your lifestyle simple and get your liver and kidney functions checked regularly.

Yes, several medical studies have linked Kava Kava to severe liver toxicity. It is highly recommended to avoid it.

I was looking into this herb for managing my anxiety, but these warnings about liver damage are quite concerning. Does anyone know if there is a safe dosage, or should we completely avoid Kava Kava?
