Organic St. John’s Wort Extract
St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum) has been valued in European herbal traditions for centuries. Historically, it was used by ancient Greeks and Romans for general wellbeing, while in the Middle Ages it was believed to have protective properties. Native to Europe but now found worldwide, it is primarily the flowers that are rich in active plant compounds.
These include hypericin, hyperforin, and various flavonoids, which have been studied for their antioxidant activity and their role in supporting mood balance. Modern research has explored its potential influence on neurotransmitter regulation, which may explain its traditional use for emotional wellbeing.
