St. John's Wort

I see that the St. John's Wort bottle says consult a physician first, but what is it and can I breast feed and take it ? My mom and father swear by it.
|
Taking St. John's Wort while breast feeding was a no go for my wife with the La Leche League. It is a Herb that affects the Nervous System. Most herbs are not recommended for Lactating Women. I would consult a physician before trying.
Good Luck

No, no, no way. Read the book "The Way of Herbs" by Michael Tiera M.D. ISBN0-671-72403-7. St. John's Wort it is a sedative, it affects the nervous system. Never mess with this during pregnancy. It is used for depression. It is an Herb. Educate yourself and visit your local library. Before using any herbs during pregnancy please consult your physician.
Good Luck
