St. John's Wort 1oz
We only source our St John’s wort tincture from makers who use fresh blossoms and 100 proof vodka. Why? It’s not just about the quality, Hypericum perforatum is an herb known for drug interactions, especially with SSRIs, antibiotics and birth control due to its believed effect on the liver. Many herbalists believe that dried St John’s wort remedies not only have the potential for drug interactions, but also may cause sun sensitivity in people. That is our personal opinion as well. Our view is that St John’s tincture and remedies should not be consumed especially if taking the medications described above, and that potential “negative” side effects can be exacerbated by using dried flowers instead of fresh.
That being said, St John’s wort is wonderful as a mood booster, it also supports the immune and nervous systems.
