I was watching 20/20 last night and they did an update on St.Johns Wort. It
has been discovered that there is a strong link between taking the herb and
and developing cataracts. It seems there is chemical reaction that occurs
when exposed to direct sunlight. The new recomendation is that anyone
taking the herb should were wrap around sunglasses when outside in the sun.
