Black Cohosh ST

More information on this plant

Black cohosh (*Actaea racemosa*), a perennial herb native to North America, is widely used for its hormone-regulating and anti-inflammatory properties. It is most commonly known for alleviating symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and hormonal imbalances, making it a popular natural alternative to hormone replacement therapy. The herb contains phytoestrogens and other compounds that influence estrogenic activity in the body, helping to balance hormones without directly increasing estrogen levels. Additionally, black cohosh has been used to address menstrual irregularities and premenstrual syndrome (PMS), offering relief from cramps, headaches, and other discomforts related to hormonal fluctuations.

Beyond its hormonal benefits, black cohosh exhibits anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties that make it effective for managing conditions such as arthritis, muscle pain, and neuralgia. It is often used as a natural remedy to reduce inflammation and alleviate discomfort in joints and muscles. The herb has also shown mild sedative effects, which can help promote relaxation and reduce anxiety. While black cohosh is generally safe when taken as directed, long-term or high-dose use should be approached cautiously, particularly for individuals with liver conditions. Its ability to support hormonal health and provide anti-inflammatory relief underscores its importance in traditional and modern herbal medicine.
