St. John’s Wort is a remarkable herb with cheery golden buds and blossoms and deep green leaves and stems. These flowering tops magically produce a vivid red tincture when extracted in alcohol. This herb is a wonderful remedy for mild depression and SAD (Seasonal Effective Disorder), having the ability to bring light to gloomy situations. St. John’s is also a reliable ally for a variety of viral infections, especially helpful for shingles and herpes outbreaks. For this combine with Spilanthes. Mysteriously, St John’s is less recognized as a liver herb though it is remarkable as such. Numerous clinical reports indicate that it increases the activity of the cytochrome P450 enzyme system. By improving the function of this system, St. John’s reduces the concentrations of certain drugs in the body. In fact, it improves the livers ability to clear drugs from the system so effectively that it is contraindicated with dosage dependent pharmaceutical drugs. Due to this ability we know it is fantastic for clearing toxins from alcohol and recreational drugs, as well as toxins picked up from the environment. The St. John’s Wort herb in this tincture is carefully wild-harvested at its peak of potency, around midsummer each year, from a beautiful, clean, environment.*
