Contact us at 638-7283 You may have noticed in my last column about St. John’s Wort, | skirted its popular use for depression. Indeed, this heh seems to offer credible support for the mal- ady, which is a major issue today. Estimates are hat 17% af Americans battle the condition lifelong. ; Depression Is a serlaus problem requiring support, and drug therapy may be better than suffering without rellef. Sadly, conven: [tional drugs for depression are notorious for uncomfortable side effects, Many users report nausea, bloating, indigestion, cramping and diarrhea, dizziness, insomnia and sexual dyslunction. We have to wonder If the side effects contribute to the affliction. Tha good news is that traditional folk use and several recent medical studies agree that St. John's Wort has effective appilea- tlons for depression. Controlled research showed the herb pro- duced results favaurable to common antidepressants or placebos. Patlents were sometimes more likely to stick with the herb, perhaps because of slight, if any side effects. St. John’s Wort is prescribed ovar 3 million times annually in Germany alone, where it Is licensed for anxlety, depressive and sleep disorders. it's ane of the most popular preparations avaliable. THE SOLUTION: Our soclety needs an affordable, effective natural treatment for mild to moderate depression, and St. John's Wort fills that requirement. ’ Not a magic bullet or a “happy pill", It offers support for an ail- ing nervous system, Altow up to 3 weeks for It to be fully effective, Jand maximum benefit is reported by people who use It regularly rather than sporadically. Never discontinue medication without your doctor's support, . Fand when switching from drugs do ii slowly. This herb should not 4 be used along with MAO or SSR Inhibitors (such as Prozac}, trypto- | phan, amphetamines or sympathomimetrics, : As it varies In potency, Fook for a standardized extract, Many ‘| have found fortunate results with a product of St. dohi’s Wort leaf powder & 0.3% hypericin extract, In 495 mg, capsules with no fillers jor binders.
