normal, but the pattern of production may change. This change could cause disturbances in sleep, energy, concentration, focus, and mood. All these things have been known to be associated with depression. Because correcting this change requires understanding the change in an individual’s cortisol pattern, it is best to evaluate it using tests that take multiple samples over a 24-hour period. This makes it possible for treatments to be tailored to the individual, based on what part of the pattern is abnormal.


St. John’s Wort


One of the most common alternative treatments for depression is the use of an herb called St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perfolatum). Extracts of this plant have long been used to treat the symptoms of depression. Multiple studies have shown St. John’s Wort to as ef- fective as pharmaceutical drugs for the treatment of depression. It’s important to work with a health professional to avoid drug-interac- tions.
