- 01Review · ~8 min readNOW Foods Kava Kava Extract Review (2026): The Drugstore-Shelf Standardized CapsuleNOW Foods makes the most mainstream kava most people will ever hold — a 250 mg standardized extract capsule from a big, GMP-certified supplement house, sold in vitamin shops and on Amazon for pocket change. We ran it through our lens: a derivable kavalactone number and a credentialed facility on one side, a small per-capsule payload, an added eleuthero blend, and the absence of a kava brew's ritual on the other. Here's the honest verdict.
- 02Comparison · ~8 min readGaia Herbs vs NOW Foods Kava (2026): The Capsule ShowdownThe two kava capsules you're most likely to actually find — on a grocery aisle, in a vitamin shop, two clicks deep on Amazon. Both are mainstream, both standardize to a real kavalactone number, and both land at roughly 75 mg of kavalactones per capsule. So the usual disclosure question is a draw, and the real fight moves to three other places: what else is in the capsule, how far you can trace your batch, and what it costs. We scored both and split the verdict by buyer.
