St John’s wort

     St John’s wort is the most peculiar plant. It can alleviate anxiety and depression just as well as the synthetic antidepressants on the market and without most of those annoying side effects. Very strange indeed, who would have thought that a simple weed that you can pick up in your back yard can do such a marvelous thing?

     Sometimes we have a tendency to look down on some plants. It’s easier to think of them like some humble weeds without much importance or connection to our daily routines. But most of the plants are anything but humble weeds.  Every single one of them is a rich reservoir bursting with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, fibers and organic compounds that can help us live a better life.
