There are plenty of detailed studies on herbal medicines over on PubMed if you could trouble yourself to have a look. I was pleasantly surprised at the quantity and quality of the studies available on the herb Agnus Castus when I was researching it as a dopamine agonist to lower prolactin levels. The 'advantages' of herbal medicines are often said to be the lower side effect profile and better tolerability.
I don't mean to be rude, but surely I don't have to point out to a person of your intelligence that all synthetic medicines can be ineffective (presumably the reason you're now taking an MAOI?) and potentially dangerous (particularly the Nardil you're taking). I wonder why you didn't think of this yourself?
