History and Usage:
St. John’s wort is one of the most commonly used herbal products in the United States, but its use goes back to ancient Roman and Greek times. It’s original use included acting as a healing agent for wounds and burns. The active chemical in St. John’s wort is hypericin which possesses anti-viral properties.
It is now commonly used for its calming effect. St. John’s Wort is reported to help ease tension and anxiety as well as relieve mild depression. Women have found it to be soothing when experiencing the mood swings often associated with menopause. St. John’s Wort has been shown in numerous studies to be as effective as tricyclic anti-depressants and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) with fewer side effects. It is one of the most popular natural remedies for natural depression and helps with stress reduction.
In addition to its use in treating depression, St. John’s wort has shown promise in treating other conditions including alcoholism, bacterial infections, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), seasonal affective disorder (SAD) and viral encephalitis.
Our Standardized St. John's Wort Extract is produced by a European phytopharmaceutical company and is manufactured under strict European quality control standards without the use of harsh chemicals. Like all European herbal extracts, the extraction of our St. John's Wort Extract is regulated to the same high standards as over-the-counter drugs. It is meticulously extracted to provide a standardized level of 0.3% naturally occurring Hypericin.
Our Standardized St. John's Wort Extract contains a full spectrum of components as they occur naturally in St. John's Wort.
Because St. John’s wort interacts with a wide variety of medications, it is important to consult a healthcare provider knowledgeable about herbal medicines.
Also known as Siberian Ginseng, Siberian Eleutherococcus supplements are made from the dried root of Eleutherococcus senticosus, a plant indigenous to China, Japan, Korea and Siberia. Although it is a distant relative and is chemically different from American and Korean ginseng, it does seem to have some similar effects. Eleutherococcus is relatively new in Western natural medicine but has been used for centuries in China and Russia. Eleutherococcus is known as an adaptogen, which means it helps restore the body’s natural balance. It is particularly useful during times of stress helping the body resist the effects of tension and stress. Siberian ginseng contains active ingredients called eleutherosides (similar to gensinosides in Korean and American ginseng), which are believed to stimulate the immune system and improve stamina.
