Goldenseal

Goldenseal and Candida

Goldenseal was touted as a cure for almost any ailment in the 1800s, promoted by an enigmatic doctor named Samuel Thompson who prescribed it for a variety of illnesses. It comes from a bright yellow root, hence the name Goldenseal.

Goldenseal was originally used by Native Americans for skin disorders, digestive complaints and even as a cancer remedy. In more modern times, Goldenseal has gained in popularity and has been used for wound healing and many types of infection, as well as a powerful anti-fungal agent.

How does Goldenseal work?

Goldenseal contains two active ingredients - Hydrastine and Berberine - that are powerful anti-bacterial and anti-fungal agents. Both restrict the Candida's growth and with time will kill it.

Berberine is truly a multitalented substance. It is an immune system stimulant, and also acts as a mild sedative on your central nervous system.

If your Candida is severe then Berberine will make you feel more comfortable, all the while pushing your immune system to fight the outbreak.

How do you take Goldenseal?

Be careful not to dose yourself too much Goldenseal. Too much can irritate the liver, so its better to take one week on, one week off. As a dietary supplement, aim for 250mg, twice a day to start, then you can increase the dosage to 500mg.

Who should not take Goldenseal?

Those who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not take goldenseal. A major ingredient, Berberine, can caused uterine contractions and may cause problems with the pregnancy. Those with kidney disease, liver disease, heart disease, or other serious conditions should consult with their doctor first.

Goldenseal Side Effects

Many users report a feeling of nervousness when taking goldenseal. Others report irritations in their throat and occasionally digestive problems.
