Doctor Recommended All Natural ST. JOHN'S WORT PLUS
for Depression, Anxiety and Stress
St. John's Wort, Hypericum perforatum, is naturalized in the dry soil areas of
the United States,
but is indigenous to Europe. The leaves have glands that appear to be
perforations, hence perforatum. It gets its name from the Crusader, St. John
of Jerusalem, who used it for wound healing. St John's Wort contains at least
20 significant nutrients. According to a comprehensive review of literature
done in 2005, "St. John's Wort has been found to be superior to placebo and
equivalent to standard antidepressants for the treatment of mild to moderate
depression. Studies of St. John's Wort for the treatment of major depression
have had conflicting results. St. John's wort is generally well tolerated,
although it may potentially reduce the effectiveness of several
pharmaceutical drugs." Am Fam Physician 2005;72:2249-54
