Summary

This early-phase study tests whether a purified kava drink (AB-free kava) can improve mobility and physical function in adults over 70 who have trouble sleeping and are losing some physical ability. About 40 participants will take either the kava drink or a placebo for a short time. Researchers will measure walking speed, balance, strength, sleep quality, and stress to see if the kava helps without causing harm.
