Goldenseal is native to Canada (Quebec, Canada), and Eastern United States, (Ohio River Valley, West Virginia, the mountains of North and South Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, and north New England and Upstate New York). Native Americans have traditionally used Goldenseal (\u003c\/span\u003eRoot \u0026amp; Rhizomes) \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eextensively, for skin disorders, ulcers, fevers, internal inflammatory conditions, canker sores and stomach issues.
