NusaPure St. John's Wort 6,000mg 240 Veggie Capsules (Vegetarian, Non-GMO) Bioperine

I've suffered from mild depression for my entire life. When my wife died from suicide on 10/9/2017; I became so despondent, that no amount of therapy or support groups could take me out of my deep depressive state. Although I was prescribed anti-depressants; I was only able to maintain a very low level of existence. At times I would feel well enough to function, and at other times I would be so despondent, that I couldn't get out of bed. I knew, and continue to know that I'll never be able to comprehend why my wife did what she did. My own life was forever changed on that fateful day. We were going to grow old together, and be with each other forever. I'll never get over her loss, but at the same time; I knew that if I continued on the course I was taking, I might end up like her.That's when I started researching herbal mental health supplements. Since I was already taking anti-depressants; I wanted to make sure that the ones I were taking, wouldn't have an interaction with whatever I bought. I also knew that I didn't want to go back to my doctor, as he kept prescribing additional medications that made me feel worse.After extensive research, and knowing that St. John's Wort can't be taken with many other anti-depressants or other medications; I discovered that it was okay for me to try it out. I wasn't taking anything that would interfere with it, and cause a possible, but rare condition called Serotonin Syndrome.Approximately 5 weeks ago, I started taking 2 of these capsules a day. I take one in the morning, and one at night. At first, I noticed nothing. Then, after the first few weeks, my depression started to improve. Now, going into my sixth week; I've noticed a miraculous improvement. While I'm certainly not cured; I can honestly say that I'm at peace with myself. I no longer feel hopeless, and am actually looking forward to the future. I believe that this product has saved my life. It won't bring back my wife, but at least it will allow me to go on, and look forward to a better future

Important: talk to your Dr before taking any supplement or discontinuing any meds. I had a stroke and one of the outcomes is Major Depressive Disorder. I was seeing a psychiatrist for several years and he had me try most every medication. Nothing helped me. I was walking around like a zombie, unable to smile even (I literally just couldn’t smile, it felt like I had a mask on, pulling my mouth down. That’s MDD). My primary Dr, who I’ve had for over 20 years, told me about SJW. He said it’s recognized in many other countries as an antidepressant. Under his guidance I started taking this and it really helps. Do I get a feeling of euphoria? No, absolutely not, but this has helped me more than any prescription drug. I can smile again. I no longer feel useless. My life has improved. Has it cured my depression? No, but SJW has helped me when other medications haven’t. And it is recognized as a prescription anti depressant in other countries. So I have these on subscribe and save and religiously take them. (You do need to be consistent and it does need to build up in your body.). Bonus: it’s from a small business and I try to buy from small businesses and not China.

1dt of all I have no problem swallowing pills, that’s not an issue of mine. If you do please don’t let that stop you from enjoying the benefits of this very great natural mood elevator. Just try taking 1 cap at a time. Caps seem easier to swallow than tablets - they have no smoothness anywhere. Also, if this is a new supplement for you (after checking with your medical provider) I would suggest taking one on the morning and the second one late afternoon. It’s naturally derived and can really make your day management a breeze. Small problems that used to url you during the day seem to slide right off your back. Improves your sense of humor and feeling of joy in general. Of course I’m not giving you a guarantee this will happen for you right away. Everyone’s body processes and reacts to supplements differently. IAlso, want to mention that the price is MORE than reasonable especially when you consider the number of milligrams you receive per dose. I used to buy St John’s Wort supplement that was only 300 mgs/ 30caps and only lasted me 10 days taken according to their label so that makes the cost of these 3 times LESS expensive or 30% less money and more convenient because you aren’t worried about running low and having to run an errand. These days who really wants an additional errand yo run around & make time for to accomplish?

UPDATED: Weeks later, and after reading the label more carefully, I discovered that the difference between the older and newer versions of this product is a matter of the processing of the plant. I'm satisfied it's fine and it is as labeled.--------------INITIAL REVIEW:I cannot rate them for "easy to swallow," "flavor," or "value for money" because it would not be wise for me to ingest them. The label says they are St. Johns Wort, which for many years have been large-sized, medium brown capsules. The product in this bottle is smaller in size and a powdery white color, exactly like the Valerian capsules I also purchased from NusaPure (holding them side by side I cannot tell them apart).I have sent an email to NusaPure, hoping I receive a reply as to how this can be corrected.
