Saint John’s Wort blooms during the summer solstice. Its yellow flowers dot the landscape harvesting the uplifting and mood brightening aspects of the sun. Saint John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum) is one of the most well known and studied herbs for depression. In a 2008 Cochrane review* Linde, K., Berner, M., and Kriston, L. found that the “available evidence suggests that the hypericum extracts tested in the included trials a) are superior to placebo in patients with major depression; b) are similarly effective as standard antidepressants; c) and have fewer side effects than standard antidepressants.”
Studies also report significant antiviral properties of Saint John’s Wort particularly in repressing viral replication of herpes simplex virus when taken internally as well as when applied topically. This often invasive plant gives to us when we need it most.
