OUR PHILOSOPHY

Hildegard von Bingen called it “the arnica of the nerves”. According to Sebastian Kneipp, a red oil extract is made to help with swelling, lumbago, gout and sprains. As a native wild plant, it provides a habitat and food for a variety of insects such as butterflies, bees, bumblebees and hoverflies. The pioneer plant also loosens the soil and its roots help to aerate the soil.

Note

A pure St. John’s wort oil extract can very rarely lead to a slightly increased photosensitivity of the skin when applied externally. Therefore, direct sunlight and tanning beds should be avoided after use. Scientific studies have only shown skin reactions with high-dose preparations taken internally. The rule therefore always applies to many medicinal plants: the dose makes the poison.
