I realise there will probably be differences between different brands for individuals. So one person may find Perika better than Kira, and another may find Kira better than Perika.
I was wondering though if there is generally any consensus on whether either brand is generally regarded as being better than the other?
Thanks!

Yes, there is a difference. As with prescription antidepressants, different people seem to react differently to different formulations of SJW. Perika and Kira are produced by different pharmaceutical companies in Germany. According to an article written by Wurglics et al for the Journal of American Pharmacology (cited elsewhere on Kelly's site) Perika has higher hyperforin content and a comparably low hypericin content. Kira has hyperforin/hypericin contents that are more balanced. I believe some people like Perika more because the higher hyperforin content seems to provide a needed boost for their personality type. I believe some people don't have a good reaction to the high hyperforin content, which seems to make them feel like they are more moody than before. When Perika works for people, they really rave about it, but Kira seems to have fewer complaints associated with it. You'll have to pick one and see if it agrees with your personality type or not. If after 2-3 weeks you're having results you can't live with, try the other brand. Both have been widely studied and have worked well for lots of people. The Germans are way ahead on SJW research which arguably makes these two brands better than the rest. Good luck!

For the last few years I have also been frustrated with brands in Canada: as with many other brands (besides Kira) I have tried: I would try a brand that would seem to give good results and then a subsequent batch (new bottle) would give very different and negative results, like feelings of irratibility, nervousness, tiredness, and just an all in all weird 'out of it' type feeling; for people who have tried many different brands, I'm sure you know what i'm talking about: where the SJW seems to have many more negative affects than possitive.
I had used Kira early on in my SJW experience with excellent results, so when I suddenly couldn't find it in stores any more I was quite dismayed. I have used various brands within the last year or so, and although some of them seemed good to start with I have not found one that is consistently good (like Kira was when I used it for over a year); thinking that maybe it was related to individual batches I purchased 5 bottles with the same LOT# of Natural Factors SJW, but still had extremely varied results: I was doing good and it seemed to be working well and litterally days after changeing bottles I would feel really wierd and out of it and whatever else, I could just tell that something wasen't right and after having similar experiences in the past, I knew what was going on.
Eventually, I decided to try to obtain Kira no matter what, and ended up (after doing some serious research into online companies) ordering 6 packs of Kira (45 pills each) from IHerb.com. Price was very good something, like $7US a pack and $20 flat rate for shipping. Supprisingly, I recieved the package at my door only 2 days after placing the order, and have now been taking 2 Kira a day for the last few days and it has been making a huge difference (especially since quitting taking any SJW for almost a week due to poor quality/reaction to last batch of Natural Factors).
Anyways, I'm not trying to promote any retailer or anything, all I'm saying is that for a long time I didn't revert back to Kira, a brand I had experienced with consistently good results, only because it was not available in stores in Canada and I was unwilling to order it online/from the states. But now it seems to be relatively cheap and very fast to get, and by far Kira seems to miles ahead of any other regular brand, so for me this will be the way to go!
