07/29/2025 | reading time: 4 minutes WRITTEN BY: Natalia De Melo
Kava has long been used throughout the South Pacific to promote calm, ease tension, and support social connection. Traditionally consumed as a drink made from ground kava root, this earthy, bitter beverage has deep cultural roots in ceremonies and community gatherings.
Today, modern wellness seekers are turning to kava gummies—a convenient, tasty, and standardized way to enjoy the relaxing effects of kava without the preparation or strong taste of traditional brews. But what exactly are kava gummies? And what makes BETT’s approach different?
Let’s break it down.
What Are Kava Gummies?
Kava gummies are a functional supplement that delivers a controlled amount of kavalactones (the active compounds in kava) in a chewable, flavored form. They offer an approachable alternative for people who want to enjoy the benefits of kava without brewing it or dealing with its notoriously bitter taste.
Each gummy contains a measured dose of kava extract, making it easier to know what you're taking—and how it might affect you.
BETT’s Kava Gummy Philosophy: Rooted in Purity, Designed for Control
At BETT, we’ve taken a thoughtful approach to kava gummies by focusing on simplicity, safety, and source integrity. Here’s how:
1. Only Noble Kava Strains
We use noble kava root only—sourced from high-quality, time-tested cultivars known for their calming, non-sedating effects. We never use tudei kava or aerial parts, which are associated with harsher effects and possible toxicity.
2. Lab-Tested for Potency and Purity
Every batch of BETT kava gummies is third-party tested to confirm:
-
Kavalactone concentration
-
Absence of mold, heavy metals, or contaminants
-
Compliance with noble kava chemotype profiles
This means you get the real benefits of kava without unwanted surprises.
3. Measured, Not Maxed
Each BETT gummy contains a moderate, responsible dose of kava extract. We do not encourage stacking or high-dose consumption. Instead, we recommend starting with one gummy and assessing how your body responds—especially if you're new to kava.
What Does a Kava Gummy Feel Like?
When kava kicks in, you may notice:
-
A subtle lifting of mental tension
-
Relaxed muscles and calm physical energy
-
A more sociable, open mood
-
Less mental chatter or racing thoughts
Effects generally begin within 30–45 minutes and can last a few hours, depending on your body chemistry and whether you’ve eaten.
Who Are Kava Gummies For?
Kava gummies are a great fit for people who:
-
Are sensitive to alcohol but still want to wind down
-
Feel social pressure in group settings and want a natural mood boost
-
Want a plant-based product to support rest, calm, or social ease—without feeling sedated
