Osha root, scientifically known as Ligusticum porteri, is a perennial herb native to the mountainous regions of the western United States, particularly in the Rocky Mountains. It belongs to the Apiaceae family and is recognized for its aromatic, thick roots and distinctive, feathery leaves. Traditionally, osha root has been used in herbal remedies for its potential benefits related to respiratory health and immune support, often prepared as teas, tinctures, or extracts. The root has a strong, pungent flavor reminiscent of celery and parsley, making it a notable ingredient in herbal formulations.*

Historically, osha root has been valued in Native American medicine for its soothing properties and has been used in various cultural practices for promoting well-being. Indigenous tribes have used Osha for respiratory illness, as an aid for coughs, pneumonia, colds, bronchitis, and the flu. Its analgesic properties may help support a sore throat and antimicrobial effects may help protect against infection.*
