What is St John’s Wort?

Don’t let it’s unique name fool you, as St John’s Wort is considered to be one of the most effective natural herbal supplements currently available on the market today. Its full botanical name is Hypericum Perforatum and it has been found to possess a number of active compounds and ingredients, including hypercin, hyperforin, and hypericum. These ingredients provide numerous benefits for the human body, including the ability to help treat depression, to promote a good night’s sleep, and even the ability to help fight infection. This perennial herb has been used since the times of the ancient Greeks and it is still very popular to this very day.

How does it work?

St John’s Wort, as previously mentioned, is rich in a number of naturally occurring compounds. In terms of treating depression, stress, and anxiety, it is the hyperforin and hypercin that are especially potent and powerful in these instances. Studies have found that these compounds can help prevent the re-uptake of certain neurotransmitters into the brain, that have been heavily linked with depression. On top of that, the herb also possesses natural anti-bacterial properties, and provides microbial benefits, making it useful for fighting and preventing certain illnesses and diseases. On top of that, there is evidence to suggest that it can help to suppress the appetite, and increase the metabolism slightly, making it a very useful supplement for people trying to lose weight.

What are the benefits of using St John’s Wort Supplements?

Some of the primary benefits associated with St John’s Wort supplements include the following:

Treats depression

St John’s Wort is considered to be one of the most effective natural herbal treatments for depression currently on the market. It functions by preventing the re-uptake of certain neurotransmitters within the brain that could cause feelings of depression, as well as precursors for depression, such as stress and anxiety. It can assists with the production of dopamine and endorphins, which are referred to as ‘happy chemicals’ as they help improve a person’s mood. Whilst depression levels can vary on severity, the proof does certainly point to the fact that St John’s Wort could indeed help to treat depression, and other similar conditions.

Assists with weight loss

Whilst this is certainly not a natural weight loss supplement, it has been found to assist with weight loss, especially when used in conjunction with a healthy and balanced diet and regular physical exercise regime. St John’s Wort has been found to increase a person’s metabolism, as well as helping to suppress the appetite, which can obviously result in effective weight loss results.

Fights infection

St John’s Wort also possesses natural microbial properties that help to ward off infection and illness, which again, is very beneficial for a person’s overall health and well-being.

Other benefits include:

  • Promotes feelings of happiness and confidence
  • Fights depression
  • Treats other mental health disorders
  • Fights and prevents infection
  • Promotes weight loss
  • Strengthens the immune system
  • Promotes a good night’s sleep
  • Helps increase energy levels
  • And more...
