Frequently Asked Questions about Spikenard Extract
What is Spikenard (Aralia racemosa) root?
American Spikenard is a tall, leafy perennial native to North America, botanically Aralia racemosa, in the Araliaceae family - the same botanical family as ginseng. The part used here is the root. It is also known by folk names such as spignet and life-of-man. This is a root liquid extract, offered in two forms - a traditional alcohol-based tincture and an alcohol-free glycerite - each from carefully sourced raw material. One important clarification: American spikenard (Aralia racemosa) is a different plant from the aromatic true spikenard, or nard (Nardostachys jatamansi), which belongs to a different plant family and is the source of spikenard essential oil. This is a whole-root extract that carries the plant's natural spectrum of constituents, not an isolated compound and not an essential oil, and we label it clearly by botanical name and plant part. Please read the safety note below before use.
What is the difference between the tincture and alcohol-free versions?
Both are liquid extracts of the same Aralia racemosa root; only the solvent differs. The tincture uses alcohol as the traditional solvent, with vegetable glycerin and water. The alcohol-free version is a glycerite made with vegetable glycerin and purified water, suited to those who avoid alcohol. Both deliver the root's constituents in a convenient liquid you take by the drop. Choose the tincture for a classic alcohol-extracted format with a longer shelf life; choose the glycerite if you prefer no alcohol. See the safety note below.
Is this the same as true spikenard, the essential oil, or ginseng?
No, and these are worth separating. First, true spikenard: the aromatic spikenard, or nard, mentioned in ancient texts is Nardostachys jatamansi, a plant from a completely different botanical family that is used to make spikenard essential oil for perfumery and aromatherapy. Our product is American spikenard, Aralia racemosa, which shares the common name but is a different plant, and ours is a root extract taken by the drop, not an essential oil. Second, ginseng: American spikenard belongs to the same botanical family as ginseng (Araliaceae), which is a fact of botanical relationship, but it is a different plant from ginseng (Panax) and we make no claim that it acts the same way. It is also different from other Aralia relatives such as wild sarsaparilla (Aralia nudicaulis). We label our product clearly by botanical name (Aralia racemosa) and plant part (root) so there is no confusion with true spikenard, the essential oil, or ginseng.
How do I use Spikenard liquid extract?
Shake well before use. Use the number of drops and the frequency shown on the label, in a little water, tea or juice, or as directed by your practitioner. See the safety note below. Drink the entire contents.
Is Spikenard extract right for everyone? Safety and storage.
American Spikenard is generally well tolerated, but a few notes apply. If you are pregnant or nursing, it is best to consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before using a concentrated extract. Some people may notice mild stomach upset with concentrated herbal extracts, so do not exceed the suggested serving. Because spikenard is in the same family as ginseng and ivy (Araliaceae), do not use it if you are allergic to plants in that family. If you take any medication or have a medical condition, also consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Keep out of reach of children. Store this tincture in a cool, dark place. Discontinue use and consult your practitioner if any adverse reaction occurs. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

ETHICALLY SOURCED, NATURAL INGREDIENTS
Our Spikenard (Aralia Racemosa) Root is selected from regions with optimal growing conditions to support a high concentration of active constituents. We work only with trusted suppliers and focus on sourcing clean, well-preserved botanical material suitable for high-quality liquid extraction.

As a solvent, we use alcohol to preserve the integrity of the extract and support a clean extraction process.
To verify botanical identity and ensure consistency, all raw materials are tested in our laboratory using established analytical techniques. These include High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) for plant authentication and fingerprinting, or Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and other in-house methods. Our approach is guided by relevant standards such as those of the USP and Ph. Eur. and cGLP, allowing us to maintain rigorous quality control, ensuring the material meets our specifications for identity, purity and composition.
METICULOUS EXTRACT PREPARATION
Hawaii Pharm determines the optimal herb-to-menstruum ratio for each botanical. For alcohol-based extracts, we use a carefully balanced alcohol blend to ensure maximum extraction of active compounds while preserving the plant's natural integrity.
Our master herbalists analyze each batch and adjust extraction parameters as needed, ensuring consistent quality despite natural variations in botanical sources.
The result is a potent, stable liquid extract that captures the full spectrum of the botanical's benefits.
COMPREHENSIVE LABORATORY TESTING
Every batch undergoes multiple quality assurance tests including:
  • Organoleptic evaluation (color, consistency, aroma)
  • FTIR and/or HPTLC spectral analysis for identity confirmation
  • Microbiological testing (total plate count, E. coli, coliforms)
  • Yeast and mold screening
  • Alcohol content verification
  • Viscosity measurement
  • Refractometric analysis
