ST. JOHN’S WORT AS A HEALING HERB
St. John’s wort for depression: A natural effective alternative to the addictive and handicapping chemical straight-jackets.
Europeans have used the Herb for centuries to calm jangled nerves and heal wounds. Recently, clinical studies have highlighted the fact that St. John’s wort has a stimulant effect on the nervous system, due mainly to its active ingredient xantone. The herb has been found to increase the amount of serotonin (the “happy chemical”) in the body. It also contains hypericin that inhibits mono-amine oxidase, a bodily chemical associated with feeling down.
It is in Germany that were carried out the first studies showing the effectiveness of St. John’s wort for improving mood. When women aged between 55 to 65 years received St. John’s wort extract as a unique therapy, the modification of the urinary metabolisms indicated an increased cerebral production of dopamine, a normal effect of anti-depressants. And the subjective indicators of depression (anxiety, loss of interest, lethargy, anorexia, feeling of uselessness), were all significantly improved.
Other studies proved that St. John’s wort is more effective for depressive symptoms than certain common medication, such as amitriptylin and imipramin.
Other medical uses:
St. John’s wort is being studied for effectiveness in the treatment of certain somatoform disorders. Research has found a slight lightening of symptoms.
Hyperforin has displayed antibacterial properties against gram-positive bacteria.
Herbal medicine has also employed lipophilic extracts from St. John’s wort as a topical remedy for wounds, abrasions, burns, and muscle pain.
The positive effects that have been observed are generally attributed to hyperforin due to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. For this reason, hyperforin has been found to be useful in the treatment of infected
wounds and inflammatory skin diseases. So, in a few words, St. John's Wort is simply an herb that was
created to treat depression, but what we don't realize is that this aromatic plant has more values than one. Commonly known as Chase Devil, St. John's Wort has proved to be highly effective in treating an array of problematic health issues that vary tangibly(wounds, burns or any kind of challenging health issue that cannot
be solved internally) and intangibly (depression or any kind of knotty health issue that cannot be solved externally).
There are several ways one can use this undervalued herb, but just now I am writing down the top 10 uses for St. John's Wort.
