John - I have read recently (actually last summer) that the supposed MAOI activity of St.John's wort was actually artifact in the testing (an impurity of the whole plant as you said, I believe). The MOAI activity is probably not a feature of the hyperforin or hypericin. I don't think they have quite figured out it works, but then again, do we really know how any antidepressant really works? - Cam W.
