# Natural Medicine For Energy

## St. John’s Wort

 St. John’s Wort is most often prescribed to treat depression and its accompanying symptoms, like anxiety and trouble sleeping (insomnia). There is strong scientific evidence showing it helps improve mood in those suffering mild-moderate depression; however, it should not be used as a cure for severe cases such as bipolar disorder or schizophrenia.

 Though its exact mechanisms remain unknown, certain chemicals within the plant seem to interact with chemical messengers in the brain that regulate mood. Furthermore, it could work by blocking certain enzymes such as those responsible for breaking down serotonin in the brain.

 While using it has several potential risks, including severe allergic reactions in some people and interfering with certain medications (especially ones used to prevent rejection post organ transplant or that act on serotonin), as well as hindering how your body uses some vitamins such as A, C and K – there can also be potential interference in how it uses those vitamins.

 [![Rejuvenate your whole body & balance your health without medications - now remotely!](https://alsuprun.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/BioresonanceTopAd.png)](https://www.bioresonance.rent) Too much St. John’s Wort can also cause serious side effects, including suppressing your immune system and making you more susceptible to infections. Furthermore, it can interfere with certain antidepressant medication such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), which help increase serotonin levels in your brain; mixing this medicine with St. John’s Wort can make sunlight sensitive individuals even more so and lead to potentially dangerous interactions.

 Warfarin can also interact with several other medications, including birth control pills, benzodiazepines, anti-seizure drugs and heart disease drugs such as warfarin. Furthermore, warfarin might slow blood clotting to increase bleeding within your digestive tract or elsewhere on your body and can interfere with some cancer drugs as well.

 Applying it directly to the skin may result in sunburn and should never be applied directly. Furthermore, taking large doses orally is toxic; pregnant and nursing mothers should avoid taking this supplement due to it making breast milk unsuitable for infants; colic can develop, as it gets into breast milk supply; it could even interfere with anesthesia administration and cause major problems. Therefore it should be discontinued at least 2 weeks prior to surgery.

## Yohimbe

 Yohimbe trees (Pausinystalia yohimbe) are native to West Africa. Yohimbe’s dietary supplement form, often sold as an aphrodisiac, contains the indole alkaloid yohimbine which has been proven effective against ED in clinical settings as yohimbine hydrochloride. Unfortunately, Yohimbe has also been reported to raise blood pressure considerably, making it unsuitable for individuals who have high blood pressure or are taking medication to treat hypertension.

 Yohimbe may interact with certain psychiatric medications, particularly MAO inhibitors and SSRIs, to increase their side effects. Furthermore, as it’s a stimulant it could exacerbate high blood pressure for those already diagnosed as well as increase bleeding risks if taken in conjunction with anticoagulant medicines such as heparins.

 Yohimbe may contain stimulating properties; however, combining it with caffeine or other stimulant herbal supplements that contain stimulants – including ephedra and caffeine – could result in side effects including anxiety or restlessness, nausea or upset stomach, rapid heartbeat and increased blood pressure.

 Yohimbe may cause serious allergic reactions that are potentially life-threatening, such as rashes, swelling of the face or throat, dizziness, difficulty breathing and swallowing difficulties. If these occur for you it is important that you stop taking it immediately and consult a healthcare provider as soon as possible.

 Yohimbe plants contain several different chemicals, including yohimbine and rauwolscine. How much of these reaches our bodies depends on many variables such as where and when it was grown; weather during cultivation; processing techniques used on bark; etc. Yohimbe products purchased may also differ in their chemical makeup from bottle to bottle due to its complex chemical makeup; as it contains multiple stimulant chemicals. This variability can be confusing since it makes it hard to know exactly how much yohimbine you’re getting per dose and makes comparing results from studies of yohimbe with those of other herbal remedies more challenging. It is therefore advised that only purchase from reliable vendors who clearly label their product’s contents.

 

## Kava

 Kava is an herb used in traditional medicine to treat anxiety and other ailments. It is thought to possess anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties, and may assist with sleep disorders; more research needs to be conducted here. Furthermore, several lab animal and cell culture studies have demonstrated its anti-cancer potential.

 [![](https://alsuprun.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/RadionicMerch.png)](https://alsuprun.com/merch.html) In the US, kava is widely available as a dietary supplement in capsule form and often advertised to reduce stress, promote sleep and enhance memory. Studies have demonstrated its antidepressant and anxiolytic effects as well as potential mechanisms of action such as increasing neurotransmitter activity within the brain. While no definitive conclusions have been reached concerning whether it is safe for pregnant women or children; some individuals have reported liver damage after consuming kava; however this effect cannot be proven conclusively.

 Though its use has been banned in certain European countries, kava remains widely available in Australia and is regulated by the Therapeutic Goods Administration. Available as both capsule and ethanol tincture forms for sale at pharmacies and health food stores as well as online sources, kava can be purchased as an dietary supplement in Australia.

 Wawain and flavokavains are two key kavalactone compounds present in kava that contribute to its many pharmacological effects, including anxiolytic, anesthetic, and psychoactive effects. Laboratory animals and humans both display concentrations far higher than physiological values for these compounds – these concentrations cannot be achieved with one single dose.

 Kava may provide more than anxiolytic properties; it has also been associated with antidepressant, analgesic and mood enhancing benefits as well. According to several animal and cell culture studies, kava was demonstrated to possess anti-inflammatory effects.

 Kava does not lead to dependency; however, its use may result in adverse side effects including loss of appetite, headaches and dry skin known as dermatitis. Furthermore, kava can impede with certain drugs, including benzodiazepines such as Ativan and Xanax.
