Cautions:
Until further studies have been conducted on St. John's Wort essential oil, it is probably best to use it well-diluted, in moderation, or as a small percentage of a blend. St. John's Wort should be avoided if pregnant. Although St. John's Wort has been used for at least a couple of centuries as an herbal medicine and as a homeopathic remedy, very little information is available about the essential oil.
