St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) is a long-lived plant with yellow flowers, whose medicinal use was first recorded in ancient Greece.
It contains many chemical compounds.
Some, in fact considered the most active ingredients of this herb that make it so effective, including hypericin and hyperforin.
Preliminary studies suggest that St. John's Wort could work by preventing the reabsorption of serotonin (a chemical messenger) from the nerve cells of the brain, or by reducing the levels of a protein involved in the functioning of the body's immune system. St. John's Wort has been used over the centuries for mental health conditions, as a treatment for neuralgic conditions such as back pain, in wound healing, as a balm for burns, and as a diuretic.
Today, it is particularly used to treat anxiety, mild to moderate depression, and sleep disorders. Hypericin, an active pigment in St. John's Wort, has been linked to its ability to help the brain in the production of serotonin. As a result, it provides the balance needed to maintain a positive mood naturally, with far fewer side effects than prescription drugs.
