Goldenseal
Product Options
Overview
Goldenseal provides proven immune system support.
Wild-crafted and non-GMO-verified, our goldenseal is harvested throughout Appalachia.
Used for centuries by Native Americans, goldenseal is one of the oldest documented medicinal plants of North American origin.
Goldenseal was used traditionally by Native Americans to support the mucous membranes of the respiratory, digestive and urinary tracts.
Herbalists of the early 20th century considered goldenseal a critical herb for stomach and intestinal issues.
Today, goldenseal has become one of the most popular herbs in America.

How It Works
Often called ‘the King of mucous membranes’ goldenseal is traditionally used in Western herbal medicine to reduce excess mucus and relieve mild upper respiratory tract congestion.
Goldenseal root contains powerful alkaloids—berberine, hydrastine and canadine—that help the body maintain strong immunity and provide respiratory system support.
These constituents have been known to help support the mucous membranes that line the respiratory, digestive and urinary tracts.
Research suggests that berberine may help prevent foreign invaders from sticking to the lining of the bladder and urethra.
Plus, berberine has been shown to support gut health, which directly affects the immune system.
A healthy gut microbiome helps maintain a strong immune response.
Goldenseal even has beneficial effects on the circulatory and digestive systems.
Goldenseal stimulates the release of digestive fluids, particularly bile, while also supporting liver and spleen functions.
Ingredients
Goldenseal root extract.
Quality
Our goldenseal root is wild-crafted and harvested by hand all over Appalachia. Harvesters are taught how to propagate the roots, leaving part of the system in place for future gleaning (after two years or more). We also ensure that only mature plants are harvested, and that we source from different regions in order to not overharvest any particular area.
Our goldenseal is non-GMO and thoroughly tested for pesticides and other contaminants.
Recommended Use
Take 2 capsules with a meal twice daily.
NOTE: Pregnant women should not use goldenseal since it may influence uterine muscles.
