| Well Mind was formulated by Daniel Beilin, OMD. It provides a good source of St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) standardized to 0.3% hypericin, for the support of mental processes and functioning. Dried extracts of additional herbs Kava kava 4x, Valerian 4x and Passiflora 6x are included and have been used traditionally for their calming effects. Schizandra, an herb used in Chinese medicine for liver support, was included to support the conversion of neurotransmitters in the liver. Gotu Kola supports circulation. Cypripedium is the botanical name for Orchid root, used in folk medicine for healthy emotions, mood and calmness. Zinc salts are well known in Europe for their beneficial effects on mood.

Warning! Read carefully before using Well Mind |
|
| Use only under the guidance of a healthcare practitioner during pregnancy, when breastfeeding, for children, and for those with a liver disorder or Parkinson's disease. St. John's wort may be contraindicated when consuming tyramine-containing foods, after an organ transplant or in any situation that requires decreased immune system activity. High doses of St. John's wort may increase sensitivity to sunlight, and it may interact with certain drugs, including protease inhibitors, immuno-suppressants, progestins, warfarin, antidepressants and barbiturates. Kava may increase the effects of alcohol. The FDA has issued an alert that several cases of liver toxicity have been associated with the use of kava in Germany and Switzerland. To date, no such cases have occurred in the United States, and recent evidence implicates products extracted from inappropriate parts of the kava plant. This dietary supplement may cause drowsiness, so use caution when driving and performing tasks that require alertness.
