Juniper Berries, The Powerful Kidney Herb

For each organ of the human body there is a herb that outshines all others in its ability to assist that organ when it is diseased.  Juniper berries are magic when it comes to the kidney and urinary tract system.  I say magic because I have seen it at work and its power to heal the urinary tract system is so powerful and fast that it seems magical.I have seen the power of this herb help many people but the most impressive case I ever saw was a woman (a registered nurse) who had been suffering from urinary tract infections for more then 3 years.   She was on antibiotics and had suffered 2 renal failures when I met her.   Along with some naturopathic advice on life style I left her with some whole juniper berries.   I suggested she take about a half dozen berries 3 times a day and consider that she stop taking the antibiotics.

I got a call 2 days later.  She was beside herself because the infection was gone.   She could hardly believe that after all those years of suffering that taking a few berries three times a day could stop this infection so quickly.   This experience changed that woman's life.   The last I heard from her she was studying naturopathic medicine.

But you can see what I am getting at; this berry is a wonderful herb that has the ability to help those who are suffering needlessly with what appears to be an incurable problem.   This berry is just a food that has antibiotic and antiviral properties with no side effects.  

I do not want to leave you with the impression that I believe in treating a symptom with an herb.   Treating symptoms is modern medicine's way of treating disease.   As I said above I gave the nurse advice on changing her lifestyle as well as taking juniper berries.   If you only treat the symptom you leave the root of the disease to appear somewhere else with more power.  So look at your life style that is the root of your urinary problem.

Some Juniper Berry Tips:
If you are taking medication, always check the contraindications of that drug (those things you do not want to take with the medication, such as lithium).

A whole juniper berry that you buy from the health food store (I do not recommend the tea) should be a little bit like a raisin.   It should be soft and taste sweet and piney.

While this is true it should be noted that pregnant women should not eat juniper berries because it can cause miscarriages. And sometimes prolonged use of juniper could possibly deplete the body of potassium. People with serious kidney disease probably shouldn't take juniper.

As I said in my article I do not believe in treating a symptom with an herb without changing the life style. The average American life style promotes disease, epidemics, infertility and miscarriages. The juniper berries miscarriage reputation came about in 18th century London when gin was the crack cocaine of the time. It was made in bath tubs (hence term bath tub gin) and a lot of it showed up in the bordellos and got a reputation of causing miscarriages (consider how it was made) but this has never been proven to be the case and neither has the loss of potassium been proven. I have practiced Naturopathic Medicine 18 years and I have never seen anyone have a real physical problem with herbs other then detoxing (which they needed). But I have seen many people destroyed and killed while taking prescription drugs prescribed by their doctors.
