Depressed? Try St. John's Wort January 25, 2002 - 1:36 AM by Dr. Gary Farr | Category:
Mental Health Conditions |
A popular folk medicine for depression and anxiety actually seems to work, says a study in the British Medical Journal.3 In fact, St. John's wort (hypericum perferatum) seems to be a better choice than most drugs since side effects are significantly fewer. It even worked better than placebos, they say. The compounds found in the herb that are thought to have a therapeutic effect include napthodianthrons, flavonoids, xanthones, and bioflavonoids.
