I use St John's wort tincture but am very interested in trying the tea. 🙏💐
Wow best St. John’s presentation ever. Thank you for providing such wide coverage of its actions. This is gold, I finally found channel that provides concrete information . Other creators on you tube barely do any research and explain it in 4-5 min.
Such a wealth of information!
I was hoping you would discuss how to best make medicines with this plant. Or ways to make tinctures without a distillery. Maybe that info is in another video ... down the rabbit hole I go! 😁
glad to have found this channel ^^ very informative!

Thank you for making it clear! I've been taking St John"s Wort and I love the effects, but I've been so worried about the photosensitivity, I knew deep inside there must be a wiser and more whole answer than just scaring people away from the herb like internet does and you gave it to me! Thank you;)

Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much, and I'm very glad for all this information and clarification of this plant. Sadly my mom was on several drugs for her mental disorders and she decided to self medicate with this plant and it ended very badly. Thankful she is still alive. but since then I've just considered this an herb to stay away from. I really wish I had this information sooner but sadly this happened to mom my quite a long time ago and information wasn't as easy to find. And she just listened to what some others said was working for them. Love you ch. And I love that you really help to inform us fully.
I'm sorry to hear about your mom's experience. It is so great we have more information that is easily accessible nowadays. All the best, Karin Rose
excellent plant. It works !!!

My problem with st johns wort, and one other person that I know, is that it causes hypertension .But this wasnt addressed. But thanks for the tips on hypersensitivity. That was also one of my problems. i had used st johns wort for years when I was younger. These problems only developed after the age of 50.
I love the oil.
As usual you give the best information. I just harvested from my orchard and the oils are infusing. Thank you so much for all this amazing sharing!!!

Thank You for all information. Few years ago I made my first oil from St. John wort for massage face and body. It’s amazing product and now I can’t imagine a live without oil, tea and soak. I mixing two oils: St. John worst and comfrey for spine and joins therapy.
Hi. I have chronic pain. I have 9 herniated discs in my back and arthritis in lumbar and thoracic. What is your process for pain relief?
Thanks
Wonderful video, very nicely done. I just started taking St. John’s wort for warding off of shingles, and can notice a difference within 24 hours I was also amazed at the balancing effect it had on my mood. Thanks for all the info!
Glad it was helpful! Love SJW!!!!!
I was wondering how you use it, for medical reasons, 🤔 thank you,
The plant is very powerfull , I use yo drink it as tea... But the plant is so powerfull that when you drink it you don't even feel the effects of weed or alcool.''' the woman who speak is beautyfull... Sorry for my english , I speak french.... Thank u
Thanks for yet another lovely and info-packed video! Question: is there a way to distinguish between medicinal vs ornamental varieties when the plants aren’t in bloom?
You'd need to key it out botanically using leaf structure. Flowers are often the best way to get a proper ID in most plants though.
Just picked a few cups of flowers and buds cause I heard you can make good stuff with that, fingers are very stained. You'd think I was picking mulberries! Thanks for the video!
I'm so glad I found you on here Rosalee! I just hung my Taste of Herbs Wheel poster in my apothecary yesterday and was thinking of you and how much I enjoyed the courses, though I still need to complete them. 😁

Rosa,danke schön 🌸. Privet c река Волга🌿
Another Love Note sweater!
It is! I am just about to start my fourth - in autumn colors of course. I LOVE this pattern! Obviously. :)
I enjoy St John's In the form of tea
I take it with a daily regimen with fish oil and evening primrose oil to relieve symptoms of peripheral neuropathy.
Start taking alpha lipoic acid. It helps extremely well with the neuropathy.
@@Sipetaaa thank you so much! I’ll get some.
you look and soung great.
Rosalee, are you wearing... a hand-knitted sweater? ! It's beautiful, hurray for knitters! And of course, thank you for the interesting video. I can't wait to get this herb growing in my yard and infusing in some oil.
It is a hand-knitted sweater! Hurray for knitters! This pattern is called Love Note. I've made three of the same pattern this year and have plans for a fourth and fifth. I am a creature of habit. :) Enjoy SJW, such a delight to have in the garden!
@@HerbsWithRosalee ♥♥♥!
It grows abundantly nearby, so I put it in the bath or in water in a tub in the sun, and use that in my bath in the evening. I also love making an oil infusion, which I find very moisturizing and great for mild sunburns, and on days when it's grey outside! I make a tincture for blue moods. I add dried flowers and leaves to tea mixes. I have never had any adverse reactions. Thanks for the video -- good to be reminded of the other qualities, especially for the spine.
Thanks for sharing!
Hi. How does it help in your bath water? How long did you let it sit in water under the sun before putting in your bathtub?
Wow!!! That's so incredible!!❤ would you mind to share how you make the oil? Do you drink it as a tea as well? Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤
Another lovely video! Thanks Rosalee 🙏🏼 I am wondering, when discussing photosynthesis and St. John’s wart… I use a sun lamp in the fall and winter, for seasonal depression. I have been wanting to use St. John’s wart for SAD too, but curious if this combination too would create photosynthesis? Also if using st. J for SAD would it be best to use tea or tincture? Thank you
It is rare that the whole herb causes problems but it is a good idea to be very cautious in trying this out. So if you take SJW then try the lamp, start out with just a minute or two on the lamp and slowly increase. Both the tea and tincture work well.
St. John's wort can cause photosensitivity and increase burns from the sun, so if you use it be cautious with your sunlamp.

How do you pick a place to get herbs that is reputable and know what they are doing?
Thanks so much! Do you know long term effects on female fertility or know many women whose have had successful pregnancies after taking from time to time?
I want to grow it in my garden! Do you know where I can get starts, plants or seed? Thanks for such a good information video. You are very generous!
I get a lot of my seeds and plant starts from Strictly Medicinal Seeds.
Thank you for the provacative info of the herb. I suffer with many nerve related issues which stem from various levels of "crimping" of my spinal cord inpingements due to stenosis and facet joint arthritis throughout the spine.and Fibromyalgia . I have been presribed Gabapentin which i take sparingly. Also, after seeing a neural psychologist for chronic pain and chronic anxiety, she referred me to psychiatrist who prescribed Prozac. I have " self weaned" off Prozac. Still need the gabapentin because restraining of it causes me to become irritable. God damn The Pusherman, accordi g to Steppin Wolf. I learned recently the GP is almost impossible to stop according to the neurologist who prescribed it!!! Gee tha ks Doc. I should have been made aware of that important issure. Dear Lady, can i take St. Johns Wort for what ails me ? Thx for you advice. PS.... I take many supplements, too numerous to mention here without a doctor's advice. Self researched.
Hi, can I take st John's wort with duromine
Thanks 👍🏻
Thank you for that great information. Would you use a tincture or salve for deep level nerve pain?
Both! Alcohol penetrates deeper but the salve can last longer.
@@HerbsWithRosalee Thanks a lot for the helpful advice, Rosalee.
Fun fact.. the summer solstice is very close to the feast of St John, which is why it receives its name
Ho can you take the tea, with fresh flowers or only dry ones? Thanks
I’ve got this stuff growing like crazy in my yard. Specifically the dwarf St Johns wort variety. How do I make use of it?
i have been taking St. John's Wort since August of 2020. It has saved my life. The bonus is you can easily purchase it over the counter inexpensively. Sadly, not enough people know of it nor of the countless benefits of this incredible plant. Thank you for the video. Cheers!
Thanks for sharing! I am so glad it has helped you. ~Karin Rose
@@HerbsWithRosaleeYou are welcome. It has helped Big time! i need to find the actual plant! i am sure it is around here somewhere...ha ha
What have it done for you?
@@kalenaglory2483 It has restored me. Helps with healing and feeling happy. Positive mood, kalena.
Can i ask how you use it? Do you make tea? If so how often do you drink it and how do you brew your tea?
Does it help with acne? is it best to use a tincture or oil my friend made me a tincture and I only started using it for a couple days now for overall wellness and nothing specific he also makes an oil
does it help pimples and scars on face. and how to use on face.
I have power extract and I'm not sure how to use it. Any suggestions?
It gave me over the top nightmares.
I’m taking a bio identical cream progesterone .. do you think it will be okay for me to try st John’s wort?
Can I take St. Johns wort while taking Nyquil? I have a cold.
what if im sitting in my office inside doing work there is no windown and im surrounded by screens and artificial lights. please elaborate on taking internally and artificial lighting details as you mentioned the tanning bed.
Lovely yoke sweater. If you knitted it could you please share the pattern and yarn that you used? For growing in a perennial bed will Hypericum take over? I know it spreads by rhizome and sets a lot of seed.
Hi! The sweater is Rosalee's favorite Love Note pattern. How much St. John's wort takes over depends on many factors, including your climate and attention to your perennial bed.
Cheers,
Karin
This was super informative, thank you. I've tried St. John's Wort a few times, the first time it actually caused me to start stuttering badly for some reason...with this brand it's made with the plant matter but not any hypericin or hyperforin extract and it started working well for my mood and social anxiety but my eyes felt sensitive to the sun. I've read articles online about it saying it can cause cataracts in a lot of people but I'm skeptical about that, considering big pharma would likely tailor propaganda against herbal remedies. As long as it's not a hypericin extract I should be fine right?
St. John's wort is known to cause photosensitivity. When I was using it, my eyes were sensitive to light and I got sun burnt quicker.
@@mysticofancientheart9078 The photosensitivity fallacy it is purportedly "known to cause" was based on one single completely overblown, anecdotal incident, decades ago, involving... cows. The cows, ate a large fields worth of it and the FDA turned it into an international incident on behalf of their big Pharma pimps. And all the uneducated internet experts continue parroting the same stupidity over and over again.
In my State in Australia, Victoria, also NSW, St John’s Wort is not allowed (forbidden) to be imported as a plant from the State of Queensland where it is grown. Supposedly it is a toxic or noxious weed.
Is it OK to take st johns wort with saffron extract and Rhubarb extract,..I want to take all 3 for my hot flashes.
Does St John's Wort grow in Alaska?
Please is there any herbal medicine school
