Native Americans originally taught settler's barberry’s value as a medicinal remedy. The ancient Egyptians used it in combination with fennel seed to ward off plagues while it was used to treat dysentery in India.

European herbalists have used it to treat gallbladder and liver problems, while healers in Russia used it for inflammation, high blood pressure and abnormal uterine bleeding.

In fact, this berberine-containing plant has been used for over 2,500 years for its medicinal and health-promoting properties. Barberry and goldenseal are often used for similar medicinal purposes because of their berberine content.

Why is berberine so important? It’s been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria and lower inflammation, which is significant since we chronic inflammation is at the root of many diseases.

In addition, barberry extract has beneficial effects on both the cardiovascular and neural systems. Studies have shown that antioxidant-rich barberry even exhibits anti-tumor effects.
