Nature’s Sunshine Products Goldenseal 525mg 100caps

Golden Seal is native to North America and was used extensively by the American Indians as both a herbal medicine and a clothes dye. Golden Seal is nearly extinct in the wild, however it is now cultivated for both its medicinal and colouring uses.

Golden Seal is a valuable plant in herbal medicine. It has a number of actions, including but not limited to anti-catarrhal, stomachic (assists digestion), and supporting the integrity of the mucous membranes. It contains berberine and hydrastine that seem to account for many of the herb`s actions. Golden Seal can be of assistance in cases of catarrh of the mucous membranes, including the respiratory, urinary and digestive systems.

Therapeutic Use

Golden Seal has anti-inflammatory and astringent properties as well as immune-supporting properties (largely due to its hydrastine, berberine and canadine alkaloids). It has traditionally been used to help soothe the mucous membranes that line the respiratory, digestive and urinary tracts. Useful when taken at the first sign of respiratory problems, or colds. May also relieve the congestion and excess mucous symptoms of catarrh.
