Common Name: Osha Root
  • Supports the Health of the Upper Respiratory System*

Osha root is a member of the Carrot or Apiaceae family of plants and is also known as Colorado Cough Root, Chuchupate and Mountain Lovage, among many other regional names. It was traditionally used by the Jicarilla Apache in ceremonial smoking blends with tobacco as well as by decoction to soothe sore throats and loosen phlegm in the chest. Osha was listed in the 1918 United States Dispensatory as Ligusticum filicinum and indicated for respiratory ailments. This same use has been confirmed historically in folk culture through interviews with Hispanic families in the San Luis valley in Colorado. It is native to the Rocky Mountain regions above 8,000 feet in Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico.

Gaia Herbs uses ecologically harvested Osha root. Suppliers are required to conform to a strict set of guidelines for the harvest of this plant. Gaia Herbs then extracts the plant material in its Certified Organic Manufacturing Facility.
Gaia Herbs liquid extracts are prepared using certified organic and ecologically grown plants. Only the most bio-active plants are used and then they are extracted using only certified organic pure grain alcohol and USP grain alcohol. Each product is concentrated to exact specifications of weight to volume ratios or bioactive marker levels. We now carry over 70 products in this line that are 100 % certified organic.

Technical Comments
Osha Root contains a number of volatile oils including camphor. It is noted for its ability to elevate body temperature and induce sweating (diaphoretic) which may explain its ability to modulate immune function. The extract also has a local anesthetic effect for which it is well known in Native American cultures as a gargle for sore throats.
