St John'sWort Extract's main effects:

Antidepressant activity:
Today St. John's Wort extract is mainly used to treat mild to moderate depression. This action appears to be based on the ability of hypericin and other components of St. John's Wort to inhibit monoamine oxidase (MAO) types A and B. Although it is highly unlikely that any one compound is responsible for the antidepressant effectiveness of St. John's Wort, one laboratory study showed that hyperforin inhibited the uptake of serotonin, dopamine, noradrenaline, gamma-aminobutyric acid, and L-glutamate (Chatterjee et al., 1998)
St. John'sWort extract is an effective option in the treatment of mildly or moderately depressed patients, which avoids the well-known side effects of other antidepressant agents like tricyclics or SSRIs.
Antiviral activity (Anti-bird-flu-H5N1-and-H9N2):
The antiviral activity of substances contained in the St. John's Wort extract has been extensively studied since the second half of the eighties. This action is due to hypericin, pseudohypericin and hyperforin. It is efficient antiviral agents against vesicular stomatitis, influenza virus and herpes, simplex virus types I and II.
Antibacterial activity:
Researchers from the University of Freiburg in Germany found that St. John's Wort extract has antibacterial actions due to its hyperforin content. They found that hyperforin has effects on the growth of various bacteria: Candida albicans, or thrush, a fungus of the mouth and throat; Stapylococcus aureus and Corynebacterium diphtheriae, both of which cause common infections; most importantly inhibits the growth of MRSA (meticillin-resistant S. aureus), bacteria that are resistant to penicillin and other antibiotics and therefore cause infections that are often impossible to treat.
Other medical uses:
It has Effectiveness in the treatment of certain somatoform disorders
Its constituent chemical, hyperforin, may be useful for treatment of alcoholis
Hyperforin has also been found to have antibacterial properties against gram-negative bacteria.
Possible option against Parkinson's disease, which suggests that St John's wort has antioxidant active ingredients that could help reduce the neuronal degeneration caused by the disease.
