Depression is a persistent change of mood deeper than superficial sadness. It is a mental state characterized by excessive sadness. Depression can develop after a stressful event like losing your job, bereavement or housing difficulties, or it can be brought on by a physical condition such as an illness or from taking drugs.

Symptoms of depression include an inability to feel pleasure, loss of appetite, sleep disturbances, fatigue, anxiety, poor libido, thoughts of death, feelings of hopelessness and low self-esteem.

This combination has been developed to assist with the re-balancing of the nervous system and reduction in the frequency of altered mood patterns.

St. John's Wort is one of the most frequently used herbs for people suffering from mild depression. The constituents within prevent the re-uptake of serotonin by the brain tissue, thus allowing this mood-controlling brain chemical to fight depression.

Siberian Ginseng is used as an adaptogen and tonic for the body.    It functions by inhibiting the stress response in the body by reducing the activity of the adrenal cortex.

Directions:
1-5ml three times daily in water or juice.
