GOLDENSEAL
Goldenseal works both inside and outside of the body to prevent and treat infection...
Goldenseal is a potent, natural antibiotic
Goldenseal is most commonly used in combination with
Echinacea
for the treatment of common cold and respiratory infections. This herb was originally used by native North Americans for a variety of infectious complaints including those of the respiratory, urinary, and gastrointestinal tracts. In the herbal medicine community Goldenseal is known as the "king of the mucous membranes".
Berberine
The major constituent of Goldenseal is berberine, and it is the source of Goldenseal's infection-fighting ability. Berberine has anti-microbial activity against viruses, fungi, parasites and bacteria. For more information on berberines, please click here.
Hydrastine
Another constituent of Goldenseal is called hydrastine and is the component that relaxes smooth muscles. This is helpful to relieve coughs, intestinal and stomach spasms and decrease blood pressure. This makes Goldenseal useful in the treatment of the common cold,
irritable bowel
syndrome (
IBS
), irritable bowel disease (
IBD
), and hypertension.
Anti-Inflammatory and Anti-Mucous
Additionally, goldenseal has been found to decrease secretions and inflammation in mucous membranes. Thus it can be used for the treatment of: gastritis, inflammatory bowel problems, cystitis (bladder inflammation), sinusitis,
bronchitis
and rhinitis (nasal inflammation).
Common Cold
Because it reduces secretions from mucous membranes, and relaxes the muscles of the airway, Goldenseal can help to reduce the symptoms of the common cold. It is also rich in antimicrobial berberines, thus it can help to treat the cause of the cold at the same time.
Bitter
Because of its strong taste and effects on mucous membranes, Goldenseal can also be used as a digestive bitter. Digestive
bitters
are herbal preparations that help to stimulate the digestive system and promote increase secretion of saliva, stomach acid, bile, and digestive
enzymes. For more information on bitters, please click here.
How can I take Goldenseal?
Goldenseal can be purchased as a loose herb, encapsulated herb, tablets, extract or tincture. In general liquid preparations of goldenseal are stronger than dried preparations. Formulas often contain the whole plant but the root is where the most beneficial medicinal properties are found. Goldenseal is found in formulas for colds and flus, gastrointestinal infections, urinary tract infections and healing mucus membranes. It can be taken orally or applied topically for
skin infections.
Goldenseal kills beneficial intestinal bacteria therefore probiotic supplements should be used during and after treatment with goldenseal. Goldenseal’s active components are uterine stimulants and should not be used by pregnant women. Goldenseal’s components transfer into breast milk and should not be used by nursing women. Overdose of goldenseal can lead to hypotension, slowed heart rate, gastrointestinal problems, hallucinations, delirium and respiratory collapse.
