St. John’s wort

St. John’s wort (SJW) is an herbal medicine derived from the flowering plant Hypericum perforatum. Its small, yellow flowers are commonly used to make teas, capsules, or extracts.

Its use can be traced back to ancient Greece, and SJW is still frequently prescribed by medical professionals in parts of Europe.

Historically, it was utilized to aid wound healing and alleviate insomnia, depression, and various kidney and lung diseases. Today, it’s largely prescribed to treat mild to moderate depression.

Many studies note that short-term use of SJW is as effective as some conventional antidepressants.
