What is St. John's Wort normally used for? I read today that it is as effective at combating depression as some prescription antidepressants- crazy! Although it also has drug interactions- I forget if it's my birth control pill or my antibiotics, or some other drug I've taken, but I remember reading that it was bad to take St John's Wort at the same time... not that I need antidepressants anyway, but I'm really, really surprised that studies were even done about this. How exciting!
I'm totally nerding out. Dude.
