Pharma Kava®
To produce our Pharma Kava® extracts, Ed travels to the isolated South Pacific islands of Vanuatu to procure Kava roots from the native Ni-Vanuatu people who have been growing and consuming Kava for over 3,000 years. These roots are grown according to ancient tradition in the rich volcanic soil of village gardens. We never harvest the endangered wild-growing roots.

Pharma Kava® is available as a liquid extract with 64 mg of kavalactones per 40-drop dose, and as a powdered extract with 60 mg of kavalactones per vegetarian capsule. Through careful selection of Kava roots and extraction techniques we are able to provide a balanced kavalactone profile that assures our customers receive the world's best Kava extract and truly experience Kava’s relaxing and stress-relieving properties.

Pharma Maca®
To produce our Pharma Maca® liquid extract, Ed travels up to Peru’s 16,000-foot high altiplano to procure Maca roots from the native Quechua Indians who have been growing and consuming Maca as far back as 1,600 BC. Maca roots are the only edible crop that flourishes in this very harsh environment and they are still being grown according to ancient traditions in pristine soil.

Pharma Maca® is available as a liquid extract that is rich in Maca’s phytosterols, glucosinolate and isothiocyanate compounds. Maca root’s traditional uses as a sexual tonic and fertility-enhancing food have been well validated by modern pharmacological and medical studies.
