Pura medicina, pura vida 😍 I love this amazing plant! So powerful!
A siede note: St. John's Wort can increase the skin's sensitivity to sunlight, which may lead to a higher risk of sunburn after applying or taking it. This is due to compounds like hypericin, which can have phototoxic effects.
While it can soothe sunburn when applied externally, the skin should not be exposed to sunlight afterward.
Hypericum may also interact with other medications, like antipsychotics, oral contraceptives, serotonin reuptake inhibitors, antidepressants. So caution is advised 🤓
