Goldenseal extract
Commodity: Goldenseal extractLatin Name: Hydrastis canadensisSpecificaton: Alkaloids 5%Description:The Iroquois and Cherokee were among the first of the American tribes in the eastern United States to use this small perennial plant (Hydrastis canadensis) medicinally. They harvested its fleshy underground stems (rhizomes) and roots and used them to treat a variety of infections and other complaints, from insect bites and digestive upset to eye and skin ailments. By the nineteenth century, healers began to refer to this native wildflower (which resembles a buttercup) as goldenseal because the cuplike scars on its bright yellow rhizomes resembled the wax seals then used to close envelopes and certify documents. The plant`s colorful roots also provided dye for clothing.As goldenseal`s popularity as a healing agent grew over the decades, the plant fell victim to overharvesting. Today it is no longer gathered in the wilderness but commercially cultivated in Oregon and Washington State. The herb`s active medicinal compounds are the alkaloids berberine and hydrastine. Most of the research has been conducted on berberine, which has antibiotic, immune-system stimulating and anticancer properties. The alkaloids are responsible for the herb`s notably bitter taste. Eleven countries now officially recognize berberine and hydrastine as medicines.Fuction:Goldenseal may be highly useful in preventing respiratory challenges, washing harmful bacteria from the urinary track, supporting the body`s ability to naturally heal wounds.
