St. John's Wort
St. John's wort is a flowering plant native to Europe, Asia, and parts of Africa, with a long history of medicinal use dating back to ancient Greece. Known for its bright yellow flowers and therapeutic properties, St. John's wort contains active compounds such as hypericin and hyperforin, which are believed to contribute to its antidepressant and anti-inflammatory effects. It is widely recognized for its ability to alleviate symptoms of mild to moderate depression and improve mood disorders by increasing serotonin levels in the brain. Additionally, it has been used traditionally to treat wounds, burns, and nerve pain. St. John's wort is commonly taken as a herbal supplement to support mental health, promote emotional well-being, and reduce symptoms associated with anxiety and seasonal affective disorder (SAD).
Dosage: 5 drops under the tongue, 2 times a day
