St. John's Wort and Inflammations of the Nerves

00:00 / 00:39

While everyone focuses on St. John's Wort as a anti-depressant, it has a very important role to play in infections that inflame the nervous system. In particular it has a big role to play in resolving herpetic infections. In this talk I will talk about its use in treating Shingles, Chicken Pox, Genital Herpes, Mononucleosis and Epstein Barr Virus. I will also look at its use in topical oils for herpetic lesions as well as its internal use.
