Goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis) is a perennial herb with distinctive yellow roots, native to Canada and the eastern United States. Revered by indigenous North American cultures for its powerful wellness-supporting properties, goldenseal gained widespread popularity in the 1800s among settlers and has since remained a staple in herbal medicine. Our goldenseal root powder is carefully ground from consciously cultivated roots, ensuring sustainability and quality. It can be used in a variety of forms, including poultices, extracts, capsules, or blended into topical creams.
Goldenseal has a long history of use, particularly by the Cherokee people who valued it for general health and even as an insect repellent when mixed with bear grease. The plant was first described to the outside world in the 1700s and quickly became one of the most sought-after herbs in North America. By the 1900s, however, overharvesting led to a significant decline in wild goldenseal populations, making it a rare and at-risk plant. As a result, it’s crucial to purchase goldenseal from sustainably cultivated sources like ours to help protect this valuable herb.
Goldenseal root powder has a wide range of uses:
Goldenseal is particularly known for its historical use in supporting overall wellness and vitality, making it a valuable addition to any herbal collection.
Goldenseal should not be used during pregnancy except under the supervision of a qualified healthcare practitioner. As with all herbal products, we recommend consulting a healthcare professional before use, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.
