John's Wort 90 caps | Karuna Health - Standardized herbal extract for emotional well-being

St. John’s Wort has emerged as the leading botanical product for enhanced mood and well-being.

St. John’s Wort contains numerous substances, including hypericin, which have been shown to modulate neurotransmitter activity as well as other aspects of neuroendocrine function. Included in these effects are inhibition of both monoamine oxidase and serotonin reuptake.

Extracts standardized for 0.3% hypericin content are routinely used in clinical studies of St. John’s Wort.

St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum) contains hypericin and related substances that modulate the activity of several neurotransmitters, including serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine (Pharmacopsychiatry 2001;34:45-9; Ann Pharmacother 1998;32:1201-8).

St. John’s Wort also contains flavonoids that also contribute to its neuroendocrine effects (Planta Med 2004;70:1008-11).

Clinical studies with St. John’s Wort extract have demonstrated that this herb helps support normal psychological mood (Compr Psychiatry 2000;41 (2 Suppl 1):133-7; Arch Intern Med 2000; 160:152-6; BMJ 1996;313:253-8). .
