Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)
Canadian goldenrod, also known as Solidago canadensis or Rice protein, is a species of plant belonging to the family of the compound flowering plants. This plant is native to North America, but today it is widespread almost all over the world. It is an evergreen, tall, abundantly branched shrub that grows up to two metres tall. Canada goldenrod is considered an invasive species, which means it spreads easily and can suppress native flora. Its main characteristic is its reddish inflorescence, which appears in late summer and autumn.
Rice protein, as the Canadian goldenrod is also known, is widely used in industry. It is mainly used in the cosmetics industry. Its substances are often used in products such as shampoos, conditioners, creams or other types of skin care. The plant is rich in proteins, vitamins and antioxidants that have beneficial effects on the skin and hair. Its anti-inflammatory properties make it suitable for making products designed for sensitive and irritated skin. Rice protein is also a component of some types of food products such as rice and rice products, giving these products nutritional value. However, despite its use in industry, its invasive nature must be kept in mind and its spread in nature must be regulated.
