Goldenseal Root Powder, Organic, 20 g & 113 g Avaiable - Frontier Natural Products

Frontier Natural Products Organic Goldenseal Root Powder delivers certified organic Hydrastis canadensis root — one of North America's most prized medicinal herbs — rich in berberine and hydrastine for powerful immune, antimicrobial, and mucous membrane support.

Why

Not all goldenseal is created equal. Wild goldenseal is listed as threatened or endangered in numerous US states due to over-harvesting — which is why sourcing matters. Frontier Natural Products sells only certified organic cultivated goldenseal, sustainably grown under controlled conditions without wild-harvesting. Their powder is USDA Organic (certified by QAI), kosher, and contains nothing but pure goldenseal root — no fillers, no additives. Since 1976, Frontier has been a member-owned co-operative committed to transparent, ethical sourcing you can trust.

Formula Highlights

• Berberine (1–6%) — one of the most extensively researched plant alkaloids, with well-documented antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and immune-modulating properties

• Supporting alkaloids — canadine, berberastine, candaline, and hydrastinine contribute to goldenseal's broad therapeutic profile

Facts

Suggested Use
