[quote=Anonymous]It's the root of a Pacific island plant consumed widely as a relaxant throughout the Pacific. I've tried it myself, but only with in the traditional Pacific preparation, where you pound up the root and soak it. It makes your tongue numb, gives you a fuzzy head (kind of like being drunk, a little), and makes you sleepy. It's traditionally used in ceremonial fashion. You don't say how old your kid is. I'd be slightly concerned--especially with the "reduce stress" question on the table. I have a younger child so I'm not really sensitive to parenting a teenager, but my gut feeling is that if my kid was old enough that I'd be comfortable with them having a glass of wine, then I would be comfortable with this, but otherwise not. Does that help?[/quote]
