A freeze-dried St. John's Wort, aiming for enhanced potency through processing, but comes at a higher cost and lacks widespread consumer feedback or standardization.
Eclectic Institute uses 'Freeze-Dried' St. John's Wort, which they claim preserves more of the plant's active compounds. If the ingredient is 600mg per serving (300mg listed twice), it's a good dose. This processing method might offer a unique benefit in terms of bioavailability. However, it's expensive per serving and has a very low review count, which might deter some buyers due to less social proof. Lack of standardization to hypericin is still present.
- Freeze-dried method potentially preserves more active compounds for full-spectrum benefits
- Expensive per serving
- Very low review count
- No explicit hypericin standardization
- St. John's Wort can interact with numerous medications, including antidepressants, birth control, and blood thinners. Consult a healthcare professional before use, especially if on other medications.
- Photosensitivity may occur.

Categories
St. John's Wort 60.0
The unique freeze-dried processing method might offer advantages in preserving the herb's compounds. However, its higher price and lack of standardization make it a niche option within the St. John's Wort collection.
Goals
Mood Support 65.0
The freeze-dried method *could* enhance the bioavailability of active compounds, making it potentially effective for mood support, but the lack of standardization and limited reviews introduce uncertainty.
Stress Relief 60.0
While the unique processing might yield benefits, without specific standardization, its reliable impact on stress relief is less confirmed than products with guaranteed levels of active ingredient levels.
Sleep Support 55.0
Its indirect effect on sleep relies on its efficacy in mood and stress. The unique processing method offers no direct advantage for sleep over other forms.
