St. John's Wort is extracted from the popular herb commonly known as St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum). St. John's Wort has a long history of use, dating back to ancient Greece, and has been extensively studied in Europe and more recently been researched over the short-term in the United States. Hypericum is used to promote emotional health and maintain normal mood. Hypericum may support a healthy outlook with seasonal changes.
