HYPERFORIN, THE SOURCE OF THE MIRACLE
The ingredient which has the uppermost responsibility in giving the multi-way healing properties to Hypericum Perforatum is HYPERFORIN. So, we can name the miracle as Hyperforin.
Among the 400 different species, only one species contains a high amount of hyperforin. The amounts of hyperforin that St. john's wort herbs growing in different parts of the world contain are also different from each other.
ST. JOHN'S WORT THAT COULD BE USED FOR MEDICAL PURPOSES SHOULD CONTAIN HYPERFORIN...
Among the 400 species of St. john's wort , we are only concerned with the one which can be used for medical purposes.
The translucent St. john's wort which has a two angled stem and translucent oil glands on its leaves has the healing power. The other types are useless. Because, only the (Translucent) St. john's wort contains hyperforin which can be used for medical purposes.
