Herb- Juniper Berries

Juniper berries are an aromatic spice with antioxidant compounds and promising laboratory evidence for anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and digestive benefits.

Safety considerations

Juniper berries are generally safe when used in culinary amounts, but medicinal doses or supplements deserve caution:

Avoid taking large amounts during pregnancy, as juniper may stimulate the uterus.

People with kidney disease should avoid medicinal use because juniper may irritate the kidneys.

Juniper may interact with medications such as diuretics, diabetes medications, or drugs affecting kidney function
