Description
Common Name: Juniper Berry
Botanical Name: Juniperus communis
Part Used: Berry
Ratio: 1:1
Juniper Berry is a medicinal herb that is used for urinary tract infections (UTIs) and kidney and bladder stones.
Kidney Health
Juniper is a powerful diuretic herb that increases the flow of urine, helping to cleanse the system of excess fluids. This causes the body to flush out uric acid and excess crystals that can cause many problems including gout, arthritis and kidney stones.
The Juniper Berry is rich in volatile oils, in particular terpinen-4-ol, which is reported to increase the rate of kidney filtration, which in turn increases urine flow whilst helping to flush out bacteria from the kidneys and bladder.
This makes Juniper exceptionally useful in the treatment of urinary tract infections, with some patients reporting relief after just 24-72 hours of use. The British Pharmacopoeia even lists Juniper as a urinary tract disinfectant.
Juniper Berry is also used for digestion problems including upset stomach, intestinal gas (flatulence), heartburn, bloating, and loss of appetite, as well as gastrointestinal (GI) infections and intestinal worms.
Digestive Health
Juniper Berries contain bitter compounds that stimulate bile flow and the production of digestive enzymes. This allows the body to breakdown foods more easily and enhances nutrient absorption. Due to their astringent properties they are particularly effective at relieving heartburn and other digestive upsets.
Juniper can also be useful in the treatment of upset stomachs, colitis, gastrointestinal infections, loss of appetite and intestinal worms.
Precautions
Juniper stimulates the contraction of smooth muscles and should therefore not be used by pregnant or breastfeeding women.
Do not use Juniper if you are taking prescription medication for diabetes, glucose regulation or hypoglycemia.
