Product analysis

48 out of 100

St. John's Wort 700 mg is aimed at mood support, though its unspecified preparation limits confidence in expected benefits. It can weaken birth control pills, blood thinners and other medicines, making medication interactions a major suitability concern.

AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works

Nutrient Quality20

The St. John's wort preparation is unspecified. Its quality and similarity to particular standardized extracts therefore remain uncertain.

Ingredient Transparency63

The herb amount is disclosed, so you can check the serving quantity. Its missing form prevents a clear comparison with standardized extracts.

Value For Money40

Value for money remains uncertain because a usable St. John's wort price comparison is unavailable. The declared amount alone does not resolve that uncertainty.

Customer Satisfaction84

Customer ratings are very positive across a substantial review pool. Satisfaction does not establish effectiveness or rule out medicine interactions.

Product Focus57

The single herb gives the formula a narrow mood-related purpose. Expected benefits depend on preparation, and effects found in people with depression do not establish better everyday mood in healthy adults.

St. John's wort may help with symptoms of mild to moderate depression, but that doesn't mean it improves everyday mood in healthy adults. The preparation matters, and the material here isn't identified as a specific standardized extract. It can also weaken oral contraceptives, anticoagulants and many other medicines, and interact with agents that increase serotonin.
