St John’s Wort (hypericum) is an over-the-counter natural antidepressant which is selling in great quantities. This, for many, will be the remedy of the future.
St John’s Wort (otherwise called Hypericum) has recently emerged as one of the most effective treatments for depression and anxiety. Available over-the-counter and with few side-effects it can also relieve SAD (winter depression), and even PMS.
This guide, written by one of the USA’s most eminent psychologists, emphasizes that while the results can be remarkable, self-medication needs careful guidance:
· Is it safe, for instance, to come off other antidepressants?
· How long should you stay on St John’s Wort?
· Can St John’s wort be used to help you deal with temporary stress?
The book also helps you make important lifestyle changes – including strategies for tackling stress in the workplace, relationships problems, and taking effective exercise.
St John's Wort (hypericum) has recently emerged as one of the most effective treatments for depression. With few side-effects, this herbal antidepressant uniquely affects the transmission of three chemicals in your brain – seratonin, norephinephrine and dopamine. It can help relieve mild to medium-level depression, seasonal affective disorder, and even PMS.
