    Product description

    Rhubarb root (also known as Chinese rhubarb or Rheum palmatum) has a long history of traditional medicinal use. It is commonly used for its laxative effects and is believed to relieve constipation and promote bowel movements.  Rhubarb root can also be used to add flavour to certain culinary dishes or incorporated into skin products for its potential antioxidant properties. Request your free quote and order wholesale rhubarb root from a supplier you can trust.

    Potential healing properties

    Rhubarb root is believed to reduce inflammation and treat digestive disorders, liver ailments, menstrual problems and skin conditions. 

    Cosmetics

    While rhubarb root is not commonly used directly in cosmetic products, some skincare formulations may use extracts of rhubarb root for their potential antioxidant or anti-inflammatory properties. 

    Culinary dishes

    In traditional Chinese cuisine, rhubarb root is used as a flavouring agent to add an earthy flavour to dishes such as sweet and sour or rhubarb pies. 

    Create a herbal brew

    To harness these possible healing properties, Rhubarb root can be brewed to make herbal tea or infusions. The root cut just needs to be steeped in boiling water for about 10 to 15 minutes. Although rhubarb root tea is naturally very bitter, end-consumers can add sweeteners to enhance the flavour.
