Herb Pharm Black Cohosh 4oz

One bottle of Black Cohosh root extract equals about 120 droppers of tradition.

Black Cohosh (Actaea racemosa) is a plant that's been growing in North American woodlands doing its own thing for a very long time, and Herb Pharm decided the roots were the part worth bottling. Not the leaves, not the flowers, the roots. Roots are the part of a plant that stays underground and never gets any credit, so it's nice somebody finally paid attention to them.

This extract comes from Herb Pharm's certified organic farm in Oregon, where the Black Cohosh is grown, dug, and extracted fresh, meaning the roots don't sit around getting sad and dehydrated before they go into the bottle. Fresh-root extraction is Herb Pharm's whole deal. They use a hydroethanolic menstruum (that just means alcohol and water, they made it sound fancier on purpose) to pull the plant's constituents straight out of the living root, which is a more involved process than just letting something dry out in a warehouse, but nobody said tradition was supposed to be efficient.

What Black Cohosh Root Traditionally Supports

• Supports women's health and healthy hormonal balance
• Supports a calm, relaxed mood during times of hormonal change
• Supports overall wellness as part of a healthy daily routine
• Traditionally used by herbalists for generations, back before anyone had a bottle with a dropper attached

The 4oz bottle gets you around 120 servings, which is a lot of droppers for one small glass container. It's the kind of math that makes you respect whoever figured out how much liquid a dropper actually holds, because that's not a job I'd want. Each serving is measured out the old fashioned way: you squeeze the little bulb, you count the drops, you move on with your day.

Herb Pharm has been doing this since the 1970s, growing and extracting botanicals on the same Oregon farm instead of outsourcing the whole operation to wherever's cheapest. That matters if you care where your roots actually came from, which, if you're buying a bottle of root extract, you probably do.

This is a single-herb extract, no fillers, no flavor added, just Black Cohosh root and the liquid it rode in on. Add it to water or juice, or take it straight if you're the type of person who enjoys a bitter, earthy taste as a personality trait.
