Goldenseal root, is a perennial herb in the buttercup family that is native to Canada and the eastern United States. Its roots and leaves have been used in traditional medicine to treat a variety of ailments, especially those involving infections or inflammation*.
The herb is naturally rich in a class of alkaloid compounds such as berberine, hydrastine, and canadine being found in the highest concentrations. These alkaloids are linked to antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties and believed to be the main reason behind goldenseal’s purported health benefits*.
Our goldenseal root powder is ground from consciously cultivated roots. Goldenseal powder can be applied as an herbal poultice, infused as an extract, encapsulated, or blended into topical creams.
