St. John's Wort
Nature's Premier Antidepressant
St. John's wort is the most well-researched of all the antidepressant herbs. In August 1996, the prestigious British Medical Journal published a landmark article on the benefits of this common herb for the treatment of mild to moderate depression. For the 18 million Americans suffering from depression, this was good news indeed, since St. John's wort carries none of the unpleasant side effects of conventional antidepressant medications, and it is much less expensive.
This versatile herb has other uses as well. It is considered among the most efficacious wound-healing balms of all botanicals, a wonderful remedy to have on hand for scrapes, sprains, burns and bruises. It is also helpful in treating many types of neuralgic disorders, including sciatica, general nerve pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, shingles and even bedwetting in children.
