Goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis) is one of the most popular herbs on the market today. It was traditionally used by Native Americans to treat skin disorders, digestive problems, liver conditions, diarrhea, and eye irritations. Goldenseal became part of early colonial medical care as the European settlers learned of it from the Iroquois and other tribes.

Goldenseal gained widespread popularity in the early 1800s due to its promotion by a charismatic herbalist named Samuel Thompson. Thompson believed goldenseal to be a magical cure for many conditions. Demand for this herb dramatically increased, until Thompson's system of medicine fell out of popularity.

The term nutraceutical (nutrient + pharmaceutical) is defined by Stedman's Medical Dictionary as a product derived from a food that is marketed in the form of a medicine and is demonstrated to have a physiological benefit or to provide protection against chronic disease.

Modern agriculture's emphasis on increased production and food manufacturer's marketing has decreased the omega-3 fatty acid, vitamin, and mineral content in the American Diet with nutrient-deficient green leafy vegetables, animal meats, eggs, and fish while greatly increasing the omega-6 content leading to devastating health results.
