Organic St. John's Wort
The following article is reproduced with kind permission of P.Topham, U.S. Nutritional and Herbal Researcher: St.John's wort can be found in most parts of the world, though originally it was from Asia and Europe. Its leaves and yellow flowers secrete a blood-red juice, and this led to its use for cuts and wounds in the past. Its name comes from John the Baptist.
There are many more positive studies on the herb and it is suggested that you do your own research and reading if you are not yet convinced of its effectiveness. Some of the many other uses of St.John's wort include: digestive pains and sleeping difficulties. Do not take during pregnancy and avoid intense sun exposure whilst using the herb as the skin can become more sensitive to light. Copyright © 2000 - 2005 P. Topham: |
