In reply to St. John's Wort, posted by irishcatholic on September 4, 2003, at 12:30:35
St. John's wort generally tends to be helpful for mild/moderate depression. It's surely worth a shot, though -- just be sure to read the label of the product that you buy. It should be standardized to contain at least 0.3% hypericins. Also, a sublingual liquid form is preferable to capsules -- "Good Mood Tonic", manufactured by Herb Pharm, is an excellent product. It contains standardized extracts of St. John's wort, ashwagandha root, prickly ash bark, and skullcap.
