St. John's Wort Tincture
St. John’s-wort, Hypericum perforatum, is found all over mid Michigan’s fields and meadows, where we sustainably harvest it from.
St. John’s wort is known around the world for its powerful mood-enhancing properties. It is believed to help with depression and anxiety, and may help improve overall mood, reduce anxiety, and promote relaxation and/or improve our "fight or flight" response by increasing levels of seratonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine in the brain. It is especially handy to have for the winter months, as it can help support those with seasonal affective disorder.
St. John's Wort also has been used topically for centuries to help heal wounds, cuts, burns, and bruises. It contains anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties which may aid in the healing process and reduce pain and irritation. You can put this tincture directly on burns and other small wounds.
