In this video you'll discover the nootropic benefits of St. John’s wort. Including why we use St. John’s wort as a nootropic, recommended dosage, side effects and clinical research.
St. John’s wort is regarded as a wildflower, herb and weed. As a nootropic, St. John’s wort is considered a powerful antidepressant.
Researchers have extensively documented St. John’s wort as having antidepressant, antiviral, antioxidant, anti-cancer, and antibacterial effects.
As a nootropic, St. John’s wort inhibits the uptake of serotonin, dopamine, GABA, glutamate and norepinephrine. Inhibiting the neuronal uptake of these neurotransmitters can have a profound effect on depression and mood.
St. John’s wort extract decreases oxidative stress, prevents neurotoxicity, and brain inflammation. It helps maintain mitochondria electric potential in brain cells.
And protects against cell death caused by amyloid P peptides that form plaques in the brains of those suffering from Alzheimer’s.
St. John's wort may be especially helpful if you do not respond well to prescription SSRI's. Some find it helps symptoms of OCD and to recover from PTSD.
And St. John’s wort even helps reduce the effects of opium dependence by reducing withdrawal symptoms. Handy if you’re coming off of opiates.
Most St. John’s wort supplements are standardized to contain 3% hypericin. But the most recent clinical studies show that hyperforin is the constituent in St. John’s wort that has the most antidepressant action.
If you are using St. John's wort and having little success it may be because you are using the wrong supplement.
Researchers say that the benefits of St. John’s wort are only applicable to standardized extracts such as LI 160, WS 5570/2, and ZE 117.
St. John’s wort extract recommended dose is 900 - 1,800 mg per day depending on what you are treating. See the full transcript of this video on Nootropics Expert for detailed dosage notes.
