Does kava get you stoned?

Could you please clarify for me if kava has the potential to produce a stoned effect? I've heard some rumors about its relaxing properties, but I'm not entirely sure if it's similar to other substances known for causing a stoned state. Could you elaborate on its effects and whether it compares to those associated with being stoned? I'm interested in understanding the science behind its effects and whether it's a safe choice for relaxation. Thank you for your time and expertise in this matter.
