Black Cohosh Root
Bulk Dried Herb • 32oz Glass Apothecary Jar • 6–12+ Month Supply
The revered women’s hormone modulator and neuromuscular relaxant of North American herbalism.
Black cohosh (Actaea racemosa, syn. Cimicifuga racemosa) is one of the most clinically respected botanicals for female hormonal transition support and neuromuscular tension relief. Rich in triterpene glycosides (actein family), phenolic acids, and aromatic compounds, this powerful woodland root has long been used to support menopausal comfort, uterine tone, and nervous system balance.
