Eleuthero Root Bulk (Siberian Ginseng), Cut & Sifted Dried Adaptogen Herb

Sacred Plant Co is a soil-first farm. Our own farm in Colorado earned a groundbreaking Haney Soil Health Score of 25.4, a number that surpasses the soil biology measured in pristine forest land. That score is the heart of who we are. We believe healthier soil grows more complex, more potent plants, and that philosophy is the reason we hold every herb we carry to the same biological and per-lot testing standards.

Yes. Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus) is the plant long sold under the name Siberian ginseng, and you may also see it called ciwujia. It belongs to the same botanical family as true ginseng, the Araliaceae, though it is a different genus. What you receive from us is cut and sifted Eleuthero root, the part traditionally prepared as a warm decoction.

Eleuthero is native to the forests of northeastern Asia, and we partner with a vetted farm in China that grows it right where it flourishes, to the same soil-first, biological standard that defines our own Colorado farm. Every lot we ship receives the same per-batch lab work and the same 100% money-back guarantee as everything we carry, and you can review the historical Certificate of Analysis list on our Eleuthero article.

Because this is a dense root, we prepare it as a decoction rather than a quick steep. We use about one teaspoon of cut and sifted root per cup of water, bring it to a gentle simmer, and let it simmer covered for fifteen to twenty minutes before straining. The cup is earthy and mild, with a soft straw and strawberry sweetness underneath.

Many people in traditional Chinese and Russian practice have used Eleuthero as a daily tonic, often in cycles. Because it is gently stimulating, we suggest enjoying it earlier in the day, and we always recommend speaking with a qualified healthcare practitioner before starting any new herb, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or managing a health condition.
