A standard daily amount of hypericin-standardized St. John’s wort makes this a reasonable option, but its many additional ingredients and important medication interactions warrant caution.
Scoring criteria
Quantity
100 / 100The daily serving provides 900 mg of St. John’s wort extract standardized to 2.7 mg hypericins, a reasonable supplemental amount for the stated mood-support role.
Form
75 / 100This is a conventional oral St. John’s wort extract standardized to hypericins, with no established comparative absorption or tolerability advantage indicated.
Convenience
70 / 100The label directs three tablets daily; the bedtime tablet is optional, so one daily administration is assumed.
Label accuracy
100 / 100The quantified extract and hypericin amounts are consistent with the seller’s stated 0.3% standardization.
Matches the studied extract
75 / 100The hypericin-standardized extract is a conventional preparation, but the label does not establish a closer match to a particular studied extract preparation.
Purity
75 / 100The listed ingredients show no specific purity defect, but no product-specific purity testing is identified.
Cofactors
50 / 100Several quantified herbs and other ingredients have plausible complementary roles, though their added benefit in this combination is uncertain.
