Barberry tablets, 300 mg root powder Barberry (Berberis vulgaris) tablets made from ground root bark Tablet size 16mm * 8mm Powder amount per tablet 300mg What is barberry (Berberis vulgaris)? Barberry is known by several names in German-speaking regions, including Sauerdorn and Essigbeere. It is a shrub that can grow up to three metres high and is traditionally associated with a long history of use and cultivation in Europe. The name Berberitze is often linked to the historical term Berber. Some hikers and many wild animals have mixed feelings about this deciduous shrub, as contact with its thorns can be unpleasant. Visually, however, barberry has a distinctive appearance. Its yellow-brown to grey bark looks rather plain at first glance, but beneath it lies a bright yellow layer. The fragrant flowers, also bright yellow, are reminiscent of buttercups. Over the seasons, scarlet edible fruits develop. Because of their distinctly sour taste, the common names Essigbeere and Sauerdorn became established. In terms of habitat, barberry prefers dry to moderately moist soils that are also calcareous. Since Berberis vulgaris can grow in light as well as partial shade, it is often found at forest edges and in light floodplain areas. For our products, we use ground roots from selected cultivation. Barberry root contains characteristic plant constituents such as alkaloids, including berberine.

Juniper Tincture (1:4) Juniper (Juniperi communis fructus) tincture made from dried berries What is Juniper Tincture (Juniperus communis fructus)? Many people know juniper only as a spice used in sauerkraut and game dishes. But did you know that juniper berries have much more to offer than just making food more digestible?

They grow on the juniper shrub or tree. This cypress family plant, with its sharp needles, can reach a height of up to 12 meters and live for as long as 600 years! Juniperus communis is found in North America, Europe, and northern Asia, preferring light coniferous forests, heaths, and moors.

Accordingly, we use only juniper berries, which are carefully selected according to strict quality criteria, gently dried, and extracted with alcohol. The result is a tincture that meets our high standards of quality. What folk medicine in antiquity already knew… The ancient Greeks and Romans believed that juniper was more than just a spice. They mainly used the berries in folk medicine of their time. Juniperus was especially valued for digestive complaints such as nausea, bloating, heartburn, upper abdominal pain, and vomiting. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has preserved this knowledge to this day. In addition, juniper is also used in the Far East to strengthen the kidneys and bladder. According to TCM, juniper is warming and drying. As a so-called Yang tonic, it is said to drive out cold and dampness, which manifest in kidney, bladder, and lung issues as well as sadness and colds.
