Depression is a problem that while not discussed very much affects about one in four people in a lifetime. Most of the depression patients are women. It is said that various factors can lead to depression and many of them are environmental and nutritional factors, though it is said to be difficult to pinpoint one single factor as a cause of depression. One of the best herbs that is one of the most effective cures for depression is St. John's Wort hypericum perforatum herb.
A study in German pinpointed hypericin as the active agent in St. John's Wort
that appears to increase the brain's production of dopamine, an effect similar to many prescription drugs dispensed for depression. In fact some studies have shown that St. John's Wort is more effective than some prescription drugs that are administered for depression. During these studies patients took an equivalent of two to three capsules of St. John's Wort.
