Canadian water lily (Hydrastis Canadensis)

Canadian turmeric, also known as Goldenseal, Yellow root or Indian turmeric, is a medicinal plant native to North America. Among Native American tribes, it has long gained a reputation as a powerful medicine capable of treating almost everything from typical colds and flus to serious skin diseases. Yet in Europe, its healing effects and natural properties have only begun to be exploited in recent years. The Canadian water lily is a shrubby plant, 30 to 50 cm tall, with large glossy leaves and a small white flower in the middle. Each plant usually has a single flower. But what really sets this plant apart is its strong yellow root, which is the main reason for its use.

The Canadian water lily is mainly used in the pharmaceutical industry, where its root is processed into extracts that have strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. This is why it is found in various natural dietary supplements, ointments, creams or gels designed to treat the skin. It is also a component of many teas, loose blends and tinctures, which are designed primarily to strengthen immunity and overall detoxification of the body. Especially in America, Canada water lily is very popular in the cosmetic industry, where its positive effects on the skin are exploited. It is added to face masks, toners, cleansing lotions, but also to shampoos and other hair care products. Thanks to its antibacterial properties, it is also included in some toothpastes and mouthwashes.
